For some reason the FBI releashed it on their website after one of the gossip blogs got via a FOIA request back in May.

I know this was obtained via FOIA back in May. The media sites that requested posted it back then. It is now being posted to the FBI site and the media has taken a interest again. The question is why.

Yeah, I was wondering about this because of the coverage a few months ago regarding his FBI file. Maybe it took the FBI about 3 months to list the documents on their own website? I know that the FBI has been busy with the Trump-Russia investigation, but 3 months is kind of a long time.

The 1997 extortion attempt was from the nannies who were trying to sell photos of his baby.
The 2005 was WHO?

Oh for crying out loud, they got a request, they fulfilled it and now -- a couple of months later -- they've posted the result of that request on their site. 1 + 1 = 2, but you lot insist on making up your own conspiracies instead.

I do not know that the FBI tweet out FOIA request. The FBI gets thousands of these request they certainly do not tweet them all out. No one said it was some sort of conspiracy it is just odd that this is being done.
