I have one prime suspect: Eric Holder.
When Trey became too investigative in Holder’s illicit F&F criminality, Eric ‘Just Us’ Holder knew he would need blackmail data on Gowdy to stop him. BUT, typical for this commie thug administration, they use non-professional thugs to do their dirty work and those fools steal out in the open things which catch their eye. Look for Brennen behind this somewhere ... with Eric the commie Holder pulling his strings.
