Aipac’s Rosen Expects Indictment
WASHINGTON — Steve Rosen, recently terminated as policy director of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, expects to be indicted as soon as June, according to sources familiar with the case.
Rosen has vehemently denied violating federal law and knowingly transmitting classified information. His attorney, Abbe Lowell, has issued a statement saying, “Steve Rosen never solicited, received or passed on any classified documents from Larry Franklin, and Mr. Franklin will never be able to say otherwise.”
