Why don't you ask him about it instead of assuming an ulterior motive? I believe he did state that he could not verify if the records were real/accurate or not and questioned it himself, and only published it after that other user obtained one of the same documents via FOIA request (maybe this was enough "proof" that Josh's documents were likely genuine). I may not be 100% accurate on that but that's what I recall happening.

It's believable that someone had a hard time verifying the legitimacy of the FOIA.
But you have wonder why he wouldn't tell the forum about it or ask them for help in that.
It wouldn't be farfetched to assume hes acting in bad faith or deceptive, because null has acted that way in the past: https://old.reddit.com/r/keffals/comments/1bkp9my/proof_kf_h...
