'No serious dispute' that Comey's seashell post could be read as a Trump threat, prosecutors say
The Justice Department stated there is no serious dispute that a social media post of seashells made by James Comey could be understood as a threat against President Donald Trump. Prosecutors questioned Comey's account regarding the shells and suggested his Instagram post was an effort to sell copies of a forthcoming novel. In response, Comey's lawyers contended that investigators had misled judges in their efforts to prove he intended a physical threat.
