MSNBC reported that former FBI Director James Comey may soon face indictment in federal court in Virginia, though the scope of possible charges remains unclear.

The move follows the resignation of interim U.S. Attorney Erik Siebert, who opposed charges, and his replacement by Trump ally Lindsey Halligan.

Prosecutors reportedly advised there was insufficient evidence to proceed, but the five-year statute of limitations on allegations that Comey lied to Congress in 2020 about authorizing a leak is set to expire soon.

The case hinges on conflicting testimony between Comey and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe over a 2016 media disclosure, CNBC has reported.

Trump, who has long targeted Comey, has publicly demanded prosecution, calling him “guilty as hell.”
