WAG: Justin did not just take Harry, Elaine. He was working on Council orders
Rigil Kent:
To be fair, as Harry said to Michael in ... Small Favor, I think, do we actually know that he (Harry) is the only one to have ever successfully beaten a Shadow? It isn't like the Nickelheads are going to advertise any such failures...

Not exactly. If I recall correctly, McCoy knew DuMorne was bad news. He may have known all about the theoretical Dark Council plot from that dinner party, and might have informed the Senior Council.
The Senior Council could have pulled DuMorne in, told him that they know all about his activity, but that they need someone other than McCoy to be their bad guy. DuMorne is then put under the Doom and is monitored by someone other than McCoy and Morgan (Simon, perhaps?) as he teaches Harry.
Then DuMorne decided to go rogue, tried to enthrall, and things fell apart. The Council got there right quick, McCoy said enough of this crap, and then poof, history as we know it.
Conspiracy Theorist:
He was probably working for a cabal on the Senior Council Langtrey, La Fortier and Petrovich. Three can keep a secret if two of them are dead. This suggests Langtrey was behind the murders of the other two, Peabody was his cat’s paw against La Fortier, and got him to whammy Luccio. He betrayed Petrovich to the Reds. Du Morne was apprenticed to Petrovich former Warden a perfect choice if one was creating weapons.
Ah! But you say Langtrey was relieved when Peabody was exposed, but think how Harry did it, it would have been nigh on impossible for him to defend Peabody (Mai sided with Mouse) and politically it saved his public bacon, he hadn’t expected Morgan’s intervention, and that created a witness who had to be silenced, hence the manhunt. Peabody nearly escaped, except another intervention by Morgan ended him, and it was the plan all along.
The expulsion plan now is to keep Harry away from the White Council, maybe, because Arthur Langtrey is afraid Harry is going to put everything together leading to his exposure as.......Cowl.

Except that Listens in BG seemed to be referring to just the sort of conspiracy we're talking about, which means he was in the know as well. Drakul teased that the White Council bred him, and it was Harry's inquiries into that which prompted the response of "I need a Senior Council consensus."

You don’t think there was only one conspiracy afoot? The Senior Council may be split between the Black and Grey Councils and each has their agenda all pretty shitty in relation to Harry.
