I don't assume i know everything about them, and I'm all for hearing other points of view so i bear no ill will for your comments and im happy to hear any insights people have on this matter :) What I do know however is Kayla's perspective of the situation as she told me and what Ive gathered with public information. When i say the guy was never a part of lulzsec i mean it in the respect that Kayla never considered him a member, they didn't consider people in the pure elite channel to be members and you are right that they were potential recruits but only 6 people were considered actual members of lulzsec and that's according to Kayla, if she was telling me the truth and her information was accurate then this person was never really a part of their group.
