一名联邦法官将美国联邦调查局前局长詹姆斯·科米的审判推迟至10月，此时他正就联邦指控进行抗辩，检方指控他2025年在Instagram上发布“86 47”贝壳照片，威胁要伤害唐纳德·特朗普总统。
根据5月初提交的动议文件，科米的律师团队正准备“多项基于宪法理由的动议”，他们认为这些动议可促成案件被驳回。该案原定于7月开庭，检方并未反对将审判日期改至10月21日的日程变更。
此次延期为科米的辩护团队争取到更多时间，以抗辩该帖子究竟构成刑事威胁还是受保护的政治言论——这场涉及第一修正案的争议很可能会在案件交付陪审团审理前左右案件走向。
科米自2016年大选以来一直是特朗普时代政治斗争的核心人物，从他处理前国务卿希拉里·克林顿的私人邮件调查，到2017年特朗普解雇他之前负责早期俄罗斯调查的经历，皆是如此。
詹姆斯·科米向科尔伯特透露发布有争议的“86 47”Instagram帖子的缘由
针对美国联邦调查局前局长詹姆斯·科米的指控能否在第一修正案的挑战中站得住脚，法律争议逐渐浮现。
对科米的起诉源于2025年5月的一条Instagram帖子，他在帖子中分享了一张海滩上摆放贝壳组成“86 47”字样的照片。
“86”是餐饮行业常用俚语，意为“取消”“除掉”。检方指控科米的帖子构成威胁，因为该词搭配“47”，指向特朗普作为第47任总统的任期。
在去年引发 backlash 后，科米删除了该帖子，并否认自己有意将其作为威胁，称他不知道“86”会被解读为煽动暴力的信号。

法律专家警告科米“86 47”起诉面临第一修正案障碍
推迟审判的决定由地区法官路易丝·伍德·弗拉纳根作出，她于2003年由乔治·W·布什总统任命为联邦法官。
总统的批评者声称，对科米的起诉是特朗普政府利用政府工具攻击政敌的例证。

“唐纳德·特朗普明确表示，他打算将我们的司法系统变成惩罚和压制批评者的武器，”弗吉尼亚州联邦参议员、民主党人马克·沃纳在起诉消息公布后谈及此案时表示，“我们的司法系统依赖检察官基于证据和法律作出决定，而非取决于一名决意报复的政客的个人恩怨。”
与此同时，支持者坚称科米的行为已越过受宪法保护的言论与非法威胁的界限。
“这条界限并不难界定，在我看来，人们无论如何都不难跨越这条线，”代理司法部长托德·布兰奇今年3月谈及此案时表示，“我们不能、也不允许威胁美利坚合众国总统。这不是我的决定，这是国会的决定，是他们通过的一项我们每年都会多次援引的法规。”

A federal judge delayed former FBI Director James Comey’s trial until October as he fights federal charges accusing him of threatening to harm President Donald Trump through the “86 47” seashell photo he posted to Instagram in 2025.
Comey’s attorneys are preparing “multiple motions on constitutional grounds” that they argue could lead to the case being thrown out, according to their motion filed earlier in May. The trial was initially set to begin in July, and prosecutors did not object to the schedule change to Oct. 21.
The delay gives Comey’s defense team more time to challenge whether the post amounted to a criminal threat or protected political speech, a First Amendment fight likely to shape the case before it reaches a jury.
Comey has been a central figure in Trump-era political fights since the 2016 election, from his handling of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private email investigation to his role overseeing the early Russia probe before Trump fired him in 2017.
JAMES COMEY TELLS COLBERT WHAT LED TO HIM POSTING CONTROVERSIAL ’86 47′ INSTAGRAM POST
Legal questions are emerging over whether charges against former FBI Director James Comey would withstand a First Amendment challenge.
Comey’s indictment stems from a May 2025 Instagram post where he shared an image of seashells arranged on a beach to display the message “86 47.”
“86” is common restaurant slang for “nix” or “get rid of. Prosecutors allege that Comey’s post amounted to a threat, as it was paired with “47,” a reference to Trump’s tenure as the 47th president.
After backlash last year, Comey deleted the post and denied that he intended it as a threat, saying he did not know “86” could be interpreted as a call for violence.

LEGAL EXPERTS WARN COMEY ‘86 47’ INDICTMENT FACES FIRST AMENDMENT HURDLES
The decision to delay was made by District Judge Louise Wood Flanagan, who was appointed to the federal bench by President George W. Bush in 2003.
Critics of the president have alleged that the Comey indictment is an example of the Trump administration weaponizing the government to attack his enemies.

“Donald Trump has made clear that he intends to turn our justice system into a weapon for punishing and silencing his critics,” Virginia Sen. Mark Warner, a Democrat, said of the indictment after it was announced. “Our system depends on prosecutors making decisions based on evidence and the law, not on the personal grudges of a politician determined to settle scores.”
Supporters, meanwhile, maintain that Comey’s behavior crosses the line from protected constitutional speech to an illegal threat.

“It’s not a very difficult line to look at, and it’s not, in my mind, a difficult line for one to cross over, one way or the other,” Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said of the case in March. “We cannot, you are not allowed to threaten the President of the United States of America. That’s not my decision. That’s Congress’s decision, and a statute that they passed that we charge multiple times a year.”
