Some people just don't get enough that they also have to go and steal $22 million dollars from a company
They will go to such extreme lengths to feed their destructive gambling addiction. No matter what the cost is or what the consequences will be. Terrible.

Happens all the time. For a good read: Stung: The Incredible Obsession of Brian Molony or the movie Owning Mahowny.
True story about feeding gambling habit. He now works for the banks to prevent such things happening again.

Dennis Blieden has pled guilty to the charges he originally denied.
If he embezzled 22 million, and 11 million is accounted for, where is the other 11 million?Blieden used the money he stole from his employer to write $1,204,000 in personal checks to poker players, $1,134,956 was used to pay off his credit cards, and $8,473,734 was transferred to Blieden’s cryptocurrency accounts, per the announcement.
