Mark Hofmann forgeries
Mark Hofmann was a master forger who sold numerous fake historical documents to the LDS Church and collectors in the 1980s. Church leaders purchased documents that portrayed Joseph Smith negatively, apparently to suppress them. When his fraud began unraveling, Hofmann committed murders with pipe bombs. The scandal revealed that church leaders could be deceived and raised questions about their discernment and motives for buying embarrassing documents.
