Loretta Lynch used ‘Elizabeth Carlisle’ email alias at Department of Justice

The use of alias accounts aren’t illegal, and for the most part are seen as acceptable provided that emails which ought to be discovered and turned over in response to FOIA requests or subpoenas aren’t hidden when they are requested under FOIA.

The emails uncovered last week did reveal new bits of information about the “tarmac” meeting.

Another set of emails released by Judicial Watch contained the Justice Department’s talking points about the meeting – only the main talking points were redacted by the government before they were released.
