BREAKING: James Comey to be Escorted by Secret Service to DC Field Office For Interview Over Trump Assassination Post

James Comey will be escorted interviewed by the US Secret Service on Friday afternoon at the Washington Field Office, according to CNN.

Comey is under investigation for calling for Trump to be killed in a cryptic Instagram post.

“Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” Comey said in his caption.

“86 47” = Kill Trump

According to CNN, James Comey is not in custody. He is voluntarily going in for the interview with Secret Service.

CNN reported:

Former FBI Director James Comey is expected to be escorted by US Secret Service agents to their Washington Field Office on Friday afternoon, according to a law enforcement source.

Comey will be interviewed by agents investigating a social media post he posted Thursday showing shells in the sand on a beach spelling out “86 47,” which has become a popular social media code for removing Trump from the presidency, according to the law enforcement source.

Comey is not in custody and is appearing voluntarily, the source said.

It is expected that Comey will be asked if he intended the message as a threat, or to inspire others who might consider an act of violence against Trump, the source said. Ultimately, a decision on whether the case is chargeable as a threat against the president may lie with the US attorney in Washington.

Comey’s follow up statement is an obvious lie and that’s where he could be in trouble.

“I posted earlier a picture of some shells I saw today on a beach walk, which I assumed were a political message. I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down,” Comey said on Instagram.

Comey implied he did not assemble the shell formation. He is claiming that he just happened to stumble across the assassination message while he was on his beach walk.

Comey could be in trouble if he makes false statements to the feds.

“He knew… He’s got a problem. Perjury traps are next. Going to jail on one or the other,” Ed Martin said on the Benny Johnson show on Friday.
