John Daghita, known online as "Lick" and the son of a US government contractor, was arrested on the Caribbean island of Saint Martin in a joint operation by the FBI and the French Gendarmerie, over allegations he stole more than $46 million in cryptocurrency from the US Marshals Service. On-chain investigator ZachXBT had previously traced suspicious movements of government-linked funds, helping uncover a broader theft scheme that may exceed $90 million and raising new concerns about insider risk in US digital asset custody.
