I don’t think they are going to try to forge anything. They obviously do not have someone qualified to do the job. No I think they are trying to figure out a way to cover their own behinds. They, all involved at the DoH past and present, are looking at jail time.
My theory on the obvious forgeries is that they're smart enough to know that whatever the problem on the bc is that if they were to "fix" it and someone uncovered the fix then that's the box the eyes' of the world will zero in on. However, if they were to mess with a couple dozen or so boxes on the bc then no one would know what the target of the fix might be. So many fixes help with distractions in that everyone played for weeks on pixels and layers and such all the while forgetting about the main target.
Yes they are.
