BOISE – Lawyers working with the family of an imprisoned Boise pastor Saeed Abedini say the Obama Administration is leaving him and others wrongfully imprisoned in Iran on the sidelines of nuclear negotiations. The American Center for Law and Justice points to a comment made by White House spokesperson Josh Earnest, who told reporters that interjecting the captive Americans into the discussion would “interfere with the ongoing negotiations.” The lawyers call the comment “appalling” “outrageous” and an “insult to the families” of the four captive Americans.
