(Washington Examiner) — D.C.’s attorney general interceded to keep a friend and fraternity brother of Mayor Adrian Fenty off a list of those banned from doing business with the city, the Washington Examiner has learned.
Contracting officials drafted a letter that would have barred Sinclair Skinner from city contracts, but Attorney General Peter Nickles, a longtime friend and confidant of the mayor, ordered the letter rewritten to delay the action until Skinner could respond.
