The IG report didn't rely on emails, only employee statements. So there should be a trail to follow, but, Witholder didn't document his recusal in the AP case and conveniently didn't remember the date he recused himself. So, this group of corrupt thugs are good at avoiding official channels of communication (phone calls, using personal email accounts, etc.)
