Wife of American detained for 2 years by Taliban pleads for help — and attention — from White House

When news of the historic, multi-country prisoner swap resulting in the release of three Americans who had been detained in Russia broke last week, Anna Corbett absorbed it slowly, fighting back tears. 

"People kept texting me, emailing me about it, saying, 'Oh, we wish it were Ryan,'" she said. "It was just so painful. I just had to distance myself, and I couldn't read all the details of how all the negotiations were done."

"I'm really happy for them, but it's bittersweet," she told CBS News. "I see how much focus it took for that to come together and to bring Americans home. It just takes effort. And I'm not seeing that effort."
