US EditionComey: ‘I know that Donald Trump will probably come after me again’
A judge ruled the Trump-appointed interim U.S. attorney lacked lawful authority, dismissing charges against James Comey without prejudice, allowing possible refiling by a properly appointed prosecutor.
- James Comey, former FBI director, warned on Monday that President Donald Trump will likely target him again after Senior U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie dismissed the case.
- The charges stem from the federal indictment with one false-statement count and one obstruction count tied to James Comey's September 2020 Senate Judiciary Committee testimony.
- Comey described the indictment as 'a prosecution based on malevolence and incompetence' and said 'I am innocent, I am not afraid, and I believe in an independent federal judiciary,' Comey said in a video shared to Instagram.
- On Monday, the White House suggested the dismissed indictments were without prejudice, allowing the Justice Department to refile or appeal while weighing its options.
