Comey Indicted Over Seashell Post, Surrenders Amid Threat Allegation Against Trump

TL;DR Summary
Former FBI Director James Comey was indicted in North Carolina over a year-old seashell photo arranged to spell '86 47', which prosecutors say could be read as a threat against President Donald Trump; Comey surrendered to authorities, insisting on his innocence and saying he removed the post when he realized it could be interpreted as a threat. The indictment is Comey’s second, following an earlier case that was dismissed, and it comes amid broader accusations that the DOJ targets Trump’s political adversaries.
