-Asked for a statement on May 30 about the accusation, Axanar spokesman Mike Bawden said Peters and Johnson "have patched things up and Alec now assumes the person leaking the details of the discussions surrounding possible fan film guidelines is someone other than Scott."+Moving forward, he said Peters was looking elsewhere for the person who gave **AxaMonitor** the information. Peters may need to cast his net wide, since [[axanar_guidelines|the article]] had multiple sources.
  
-Johnson had not replied to confirm Bawden's statement before this article was posted early May 31, 2016. {{:axamonitor-ico.gif?nolink|}}+"He said he's pretty sure who the leak is by process of elimination," Johnson said. "I said good luck." {{:axamonitor-ico.gif?nolink|}}
