Musk replied to one user questioning Lucre's suspension with an answer to why the platform took action. According to Musk, Lucre was suspended for "posting child exploitation pictures associated with the criminal conviction of an Australian man in the Philippines." Musk followed up by saying that they'd remove the post but would reinstate Lucre's account. Lucre was back on Twitter the very same day.

So. . . Probably who you'd expect.
