Former FBI director James Comey has been indicted over an Instagram photo of seashells that officials say threatened the life of US President Donald Trump.
In the now-deleted Instagram post, the 65-year-old outspoken Trump critic – who was first indicted last year – shared a photo of seashells on a beach in May 2025 arranged to form the numbers “86 47”.
At the time, Mr Trump alleged “86” was slang for kill, and “47” was a reference to him being the 47th president. Mr Comey has insisted he did not know the numbers were associated with violence.
Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, US time, US Acting Attorney-General Todd Blanche said Mr Comey was indicted on two counts including “knowingly and wilfully making a threat to take the life of and to inflict bodily harm upon the President of the United States” and “knowingly and wilfully transmitting an interstate commerce of communication that contained a threat to kill the President of the United States”.
Both counts carry a maximum term of imprisonment of 10 years. An arrest warrant was issued for Mr Comey.
