I don't see any smearing of anybody's name. What I do see is
speculation, which is to say, "reasoning based on inconclusive evidence;
conjecture or supposition." In otherwords, J offered a "guess" that the
two might be related and certainly wasn't pointing fingers as if that
was the definitive reason.

It sometimes happens that seemingly disparate events are actually
linked, so it was not an entirely illogical guess.
