Reports are not clear on James Elmer Mitchell's membership status. In 2007-2008, Katherine Eban of Vanity Fair and Jane Mayer of New Yorker both identify Mitchell as a Latter-day Saint. Additionally, Mitchell's comments denying his membership come approximately 12 years after the time of his CIA training.
