LulzSec's Ryan Cleary, the 19-year-old arrested last June for aiding in the operations of notorious hacking collective LulzSec, has landed back in jail.

Cleary, who was never an official LulzSec member but ran an Internet Relay Chat that the group used to communicate, had apparently been trading e-mails with Hector Xavier Monsegur, a.k.a. Sabu, the recently outed LulzSec mastermind turned FBI informant. That was a direct violation of his bail agreement, which dictated that Cleary was to have no access to the Internet whatsoever.  

London's Metropolitan Police say they rearrested Cleary on March 5, the day before the FBI revealed Sabu's identity, and that "the party boy of the projects" had been eagerly spilling the beans on his fellow hackers. According to Cleary's lawyer, the teen is being held at Chelmsford Prison north of London, awaiting a court appearance in May.
