An appointed member of the department of commerce is accused of stealing funds from the department. what action could be taken against the individual accused of the crime?

the house could order an investigative committee to examine the case.

the individual would have to be impeached to be removed from the position. the executive branch could launch an investigatory hearing into the charges. the individual could be fired for cause but no legal action would be taken.

First an investigating team should be formed to investigate the case, they should find evidence against the culprit. They should investigate whether he has stole funds only or he has some private or secret information. The case should be examined closely and decision should be taken that whether to involve police in the case or just handle it by their own. In severe cases it is important to involve police. Depending upon the case, maybe just firing the employee is enough and no legal action would be taken.
