I don't know your group and maybe this went over well. But I was in a group that had a similar situation happen, but when it happened in my group it completely killed the campaign. We didn't know a party member was doing it, but we felt like we were being undermined at every step and the DM wasn't allowing us to make sufficient progress to enjoy ourselves.

They've repeatedly asked me to bring back the same character in other campaigns so I think they thought it was fun too. Everyone generally has their own goals and our primary DMs are all into the political intrigue angles over straight dungeon crawling, so there's always a kind of Game of Thrones thing going on between the party members even when they're all good guys.

Kind of a reason why I use a cleric of Cyric; the goal isn't to straight up fuck everything up as that may lead to war, the domain of Cyric's rival god, Tempus. It's to plant the seeds of doubt and make everyone paranoid. ๐Ÿ˜
