Have I made any mistakes?

Tom Speed, a former police officer, was arrested as he was trying to extort a large amount of money from a businessman. His former colleagues told the media they couldn't believe their eyes when they read what he had done. Tom was known as a friendly and honest guy, always ready to help others. It was a mystery how he had lost his moral compass and became a criminal.
 
I would use "read about" instead of "read" in that.
 
How about become?
