There was a guy named Gerald Tanner who years ago became converted out of Mormonism and started the Modern Microfilm Company that exposed a lot of this cult's frauds, such as Smith's plagiarism of Masonic temple ritual to make it Mormon temple ritual, and Smith's council of 70 were all Masons, so they had to know of the fraud. When Smith was lynched in Navoo City, Ill., his last words on earth were the Masonic high sign of distress, by which he knew fellow Masons in the lynch mob were honor bound to save him. I don't think this was merely a sincerely-misguided man. I think he was a knowing fraud.
