Former James Comey has surrendered to authorities over allegations linked to a social media post that prosecutors claim posed a threat to Donald Trump.
The case centers on an Instagram image showing seashells arranged as “86 47”, which authorities interpret as a coded message encouraging harm toward the 47th U.S. president.
Comey has denied all allegations, stating he was unaware of the meaning and calling the case politically motivated
🏛️ He appeared in a Virginia court, where charges were read, but no plea was entered. His legal team plans to seek dismissal, arguing selective prosecution
⚠️ If convicted, the charges could carry up to 10 years in prison.
