A retired FBI agent stole $800,000 from a woman by convincing her she was on "secret probation" and needed to comply or risk losing her children as part of a years-long scheme, prosecutors say.

In November 2015 - the month after he retired from the Federal Bureau of Investigation - William Roy Stone, Jr., 62, convinced a woman she was on "secret probation" under orders from a fictitious "Judge Anderson" for drug crimes, according to the US Attorneys Office for the Northern District of Texas.

Prosecutors did not identify the victim in the case but said she was a woman from the small Texas city of Granbury.

Stone told the woman that the fake judge had appointed him as her "mentor" to "supervise" her, prosecutors said. He allegedly told his victim she had to disclose to him all of her activities and assets, and said she was required to pay him his travel costs and other fees he incurred while supervising her, court documents said.
