Comey lawyers claim case distortion [0SKlRTT6OEy]

Legal battle over seashell Instagram post highlights alleged political prosecution James Comey’s lawyers say the US government distorted details in the seashell case. They filed misconduct allegations on Tuesday, arguing the prosecution is riddled with irregularities. Comey was charged in April for an Instagram post that showed seashells arranged to read 86 47. The DOJ alleges the numbers encode a threat to kill the 47th president. The defense points to ample objective evidence that the President’s animus toward Comey fuels a vindictive, selective prosecution. This reflects the administration’s aggressive pursuit of the president’s rivals.
