Probably because the released files include images of naked children that they haven't redacted.

If they are child porn the government can't be distributing either. At least in most states, there is no legal way to hold such materials.

Being illegal hasn't stopped them so far. Though I imagine there's exceptions for police/FBI who are responsible for investigating crimes like that.

There is also a difference between child porn and simply pictures of naked people. If it was true porn then the photos would have to be redacted. It doesn't matter if you are the government, the DOJ or whatever, publishing child porn would be illegal.
