Former FBI Director James Comey appeared at the Albert V. Bryan United States Courthouse in the Eastern District of Virginia, where he pleaded not guilty to the charges of alleged false statements and obstruction of Congress.
On September 25, a federal grand jury indicted Comey “on charges believed to stem from Comey’s testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee in September 2020 about the FBI’s investigation into links between Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and Russia.”
Prosecutors had to secure an indictment before September 30 due to the statute of limitations.
“No one is above the law,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “Today’s indictment reflects this Department of Justice’s commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case.”
