Ex-CIA man fingered as prime suspect in Vault 7 spy tool manuals leak

So if they can't get him on the big charge (classified data theft and release) then hit him with something else (child images)... I'm really hoping for his sake that the CIA has been thorough not just pinning it on him because they need someone to blame. I do have reservations that this is a red herring to let the real perp think he/she is in the clear while the investigation continues. It is the CIA so all bets are off on who actually did it and if the perp is known to them. In the same vein, all bets are off on who put the pictures on his server. With all the misinformation out of DC lately, I'll be surprised if we (the public) will ever know as (again being the CIA) the real perp could hiding out in another country or even 6 feet underground somewhere.
