Accountability

Justice Department moves to charge James Comey a third time, days before midterms

Prosecutors filed a criminal information accusing the former FBI director of transmitting national defense information in 2016. Comey says he is 'still innocent,' and a former Justice Department inspector general calls the filing an attempt to keep alive a case that 'deserved to die 9 years ago.'

Courts

Comey faces a pending threat case; no new charge found

Reports of a fresh Comey charge could not be confirmed. The former FBI director's second indictment, filed in April over an Instagram photo, is still pending, and a judge ruled Monday that his daughter was illegally fired.
