The federal charges revive a previous perjury prosecution from last year that was dismissed. CNN reported that the charges are connected to Comey’s photo posted online of a sea shell arrangement that said “8647,” which was viewed as a threat to Trump, the 47th president.
Comey played a role in the Russia investigation into President Donald Trump, examining alleged ties between his 2016 presidential campaign and Russia. Comey was appointed as FBI director by President Barack Obama, and has been a critic of Trump after the president fired him in 2017.
The previous indictment against Comey charged him with perjury before the Senate.
The Justice Department has not formally announced the indictment.
Comey was previously indicted Sept. 25 for making a false statement and obstruction of a congressional proceeding.
