North Carolina-based US District Judge Louise Flanagan, a George W. Bush appointee, on Friday tentatively scheduled James Comey’s criminal trial in the Trump assassination post case for July 15.
Comey’s lawyers of course will move to dismiss the case.
Former FBI Director James Comey is tentatively set to stand trial on July 15 on charges that he allegedly threatened to kill President Donald Trump by posting a photo of seashells spelling out “86 47” on a beach.
In a written order issued Friday, U.S. District Judge Louise Flanagan scheduled the trial to begin on July 15.
After his court appearance in North Carolina that was originally set for Monday was canceled, Comey will be arraigned on June 30.
Comey’s lawyers have previewed that they plan to move to dismiss the case. His pretrial conference is scheduled to take place on or before May 29.
Comey turned himself into authorities and was arraigned in a federal courthouse in Alexandria, Virginia, last week.
James Comey posted his threatening ‘8647’ Instagram post last May.
“Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” Comey said.
’86 47′ is a threat to ‘eliminate/kill’ the 47th president.
