Evidently he had some interest in sex offender cases, judging from his ‘likes’ below, which may or may not mean something, since he was, after all, involved in law enforcement in everything from financial crimes to counterterrorism :

If he did as he is accused he was extraordinarily stupid to take such risks as distributing the stuff using his home computer- or else just supremely confident no one would ever suspect.

Of course, there is the possibility he’s not guilty and has made powerful enemies in his investigations and someone might want to set him up, or kneecap him to keep him from a political run.

But if guilty he’s not the first law enforcement guy to be that stupid.
