Judge Dismisses Alec Baldwin's Involuntary Manslaughter Case Over Withheld Evidence
ai generated text
Alec Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter trial was dismissed by Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer due to the alleged withholding of crucial evidence from his defense team. The evidence in question is a batch of bullets that could have been connected to the fatal shooting on the set of "Rust" in October 2021. Baldwin's lawyers claimed that police and prosecutors hid this evidence, leading to the judge's decision to dismiss the case.
We are disappointed that the case did not get to the jury.
The late discovery of this evidence during trial has impeded the effective use of evidence in such a way that it has impacted the fundamental fairness of the proceedings. If this conduct does not rise to the level of bad faith it certainly comes so near to bad faith to show signs of scorching.
The real reason you didn't inventory that evidence is because it could have jeopardised the law enforcement case.
