Central undercover FBI agent working NCAAB case accused of misconduct

Wall Street Journal writer Rebecca Davis O’Brien reported that the undercover Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Agent central to the NCAA Men’s Basketball probe is being accused of misconduct.

This may blow a hole in the NCAAB investigation as he may not be able to be a witness, or at least a credible witness. He is being accused of:

Misappropriating government money and spending it on gambling, food and beverages during the probe — The Justice Department launched a criminal investigation last year into the agent’s alleged behavior— If he is found culpable, it could compromise his ability to participate as a witness.
