They seem to think of him as barely more than a photocopier and filing system.
--- End quote ---
it wasn't on the books, generally you don't write down super secret locations an what not. cause other people can steal the paper... what it points to is cowl being inside the WC and probably who showed with an army of spiders, standing in a way and unleashing an army seems to be part of his M.O.
also peabody had the same musty smell on him as cowl, probably from hanging around him.
madness:
There would be requisitions and correspondence.
It is pretty heavily implied at the end of Turn Coat that Peabody had access to all of the leaked information and that everyone overlooked him since he was basically just the court stenographer during meetings.
Even if he wasn't involved in all of the Senior Council meetings he was probably able to piece a lot of things together when they ended the meetings and the Senior Council members promptly began issuing various orders.

Regarding the WOJ which talks about Simon and a death curse:
--- Quote ---See what happened to all the vampires around Simon when they assaulted his compound immediately prior to the onstage events in Summer Knight.
--- End quote ---
Note that Jim doesn't actually state that Simon cast this death curse nor that he died. He just specifically pointed to all the vampires dying around him. Another way to look at this quote considering we know that Cowl has survived death curses before is that this particular death curse wasn't cast by Simon but at him and all the vampires that happened to be around him. He managed to defend against the curse but vampires were obliterated. This chain of logic could work if one of the wizards of Archangel recognised Simon as the traitor who let the Red's bypass the formidable wards and decided to try and take him down as a last ditched effort.
We also know that Simon had a female apprentice which fits really well as being Kumori.

I don't recall anything about Simon having a female apprentice?

We know that Simon had a female apprentice named Larisa Yevtushenko from both the paranet files and I think from either one of the books or a WOJ. I can't seem to track down the book quote at this time though. She is mentioned directly in an excert from the Paranet files at this site though - http://www.evilhat.com/home/paranet-papers-sneak-peek-novgorod-4/
