Whatever his reasons for the way he did it or even why he did it the important thing is that corruption of any kind is not tolerated and doesn't go unnoticed or unpunished.
Public outrage can be a far stronger weapon in the fight against corruption than any court.
A grand jury would have easily solved the issue; the justice department could not have quashed testimony given to a bunch of pissed-off citizens who are looking to endict anything that moves.
Had the man gone before a Grand Jury, he could have even testified incognito with a legal stipulation as to his bona fides; such things happen all the time.
The public outrage would have followed in very short order.
