The lawyer for NSA leaker Edward Snowden said his client is ready to return to the United States.
His family here in the Lehigh Valley is not verifying that.
Snowden has lived in Russia since he leaked classified documents to media outlets while working as a systems analyst for the National Security Agency.
The lawyer said Snowden received a guarantee from Attorney General Eric Holder that he will not face the death penalty if he goes to trial in the US. But the attorney said Snowden wants a guarantee of a "legal and impartial trial" before deciding whether to come home.
Snowden has family ties to the Lehigh Valley his father and stepmother live in Upper Macungie Township.
We stopped by the Snowden family home. They declined to comment on camera and said to our reporter, "there's no news."
