Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted by the Justice Department for a second time. According to reports, this latest indictment is related to an Instagram post featuring a seashell.

The New York Times reported that Comey was previously indicted in 2018 on charges of mishandling classified information. The new indictment appears to be unrelated to those charges.

CNBC and CNN have also reported on the development, stating that Comey has been indicted for his social media activity. The exact nature of the allegations against him is not clear.

Fox News has confirmed that Comey has been indicted again, this time over a post he made featuring a seashell on Instagram. The outlet reports that Comey’s social media activity may be subject to scrutiny under federal law.

It is unclear what specific laws or regulations are being cited in the indictment. The Justice Department has declined to comment further on the matter.

Comey’s representatives have not released any statements regarding the latest development.
