The former owner of a Reno internet provider pleaded guilty Tuesday to laundering money he took from a federally funded broadband project in rural Lovelock, Nevada. Prosecutors say he moved more than $7.8 million into his personal account and then into cryptocurrency. The Agriculture Department's 2022 award of $27.15 million had promised to connect 4,884 people, 130 businesses, 22 farms and seven public schools.
