Carl Force, the second of two former US agents charged with pocketing hundreds of thousands
of dollars in bitcoin during the Silk Road investigation, reached a plea agreement with prosecutors.

Force agreed to plead guilty to charges including money laundering and extortion. Force’s agreement
follows a similar deal reached on June 17 with Shaun Bridges, a US Secret Service agent who worked
with Force on the same Baltimore task force.
