Judge schedules criminal trial for James Comey for July 15

The case revives after an earlier indictment was dismissed, and prosecutors say a deleted Instagram post showed a coded threat against Trump.

  • A federal judge in North Carolina scheduled James Comey's criminal trial for July 15 after a grand jury indicted him on two criminal charges.
  • Judge Louise Flanagan canceled Comey's first court appearance in North Carolina because he had already appeared for the same case in Virginia and allowed him to enter a plea on June 30 with pretrial motions due by June 5.
  • Comey was indicted for posting a photo with the inscription '86-47,' which prosecutors allege was a threat against the president.
  • If convicted of making a threat and transmitting it in interstate commerce, Comey could face up to 20 years in prison.
