Baldwin Charges Dismissed
Following a stunning mid-trial revelation, Fox News chief correspondent Jonathan Hunt reports that District Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed involuntary manslaughter charges against Alec Baldwin in the shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during the filming of the movie Rust just south of Santa Fe, N.M., in 2021.
Sommer dismissed the charges with prejudice, after defense attorneys filed a motion to dismiss, alleging the prosecution never revealed key evidence in the trial that could of aided his case. Hunt says the evidence in question was a box of ammunition the defense claimed was connected to the movie set.
Lead prosecutor Kari Morrissey later took the stand to testify that the box of bullets was not relevant to the case, but failed to convince Judge Sommer. Here’s more from Fox News.
Actor Mark Pellegrino joins the Tim Pool podcast to discuss the Baldwin case and share his thoughts on gun rules on movie sets.
