Yaroch, a former agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, pleaded guilty to stealing roughly $2.47 million in cryptocurrency from wallets tied to 35 investigations. As part of his plea, he will pay at least $2.4 million in restitution and forfeit any future profits from telling his story. Restitution is money a defendant is ordered to repay to victims or affected parties. The restitution amount is just under the sum he admitted taking.
