An email casts doubt on a key detail of The New York Times's profile on Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt's former head of security - a detail that impugned the impartiality of a top official in the EPA inspector general's office. Pruitt's former security head Nino Perrotta and Assistant Inspector General Patrick Sullivan were "spotted drinking beers together at Elephant & Castle, a bar across the street from the EPA headquarters," despite "concerns" raised over Perrotta's "oversight of Mr. Pruitt's security," The New York Times reported in April.
