The Department of Justice has indicted former FBI director James Comey on two counts alleging he threatened President Donald Trump via an Instagram post showing seashells arranged to form '86 47'. Legal experts describe the indictment as 'very weak' and doubt a conviction, citing constitutional free speech protections, the ambiguous meaning of '86', and Comey's stated lack of intent to threaten. This marks the second set of charges against Comey, with the first being dismissed by a judge last year.
