I think it's better to privately consult an attorney on anything you think is substantially suspicious to your superiors than to go through the chain of the command.

Exposing your dangerous intentions to report potentially illegal behavior too early could mean inadequate time to prepare for repercussions.

Certainly you could additionally consult an attorney, but that's still no excuse for leaving the system broken as-is. Did he plan on just leaking evidence all the time in the future and hoping that he doesn't accidentally violate a judge's legal order in the process?
