Just the day before, Alec Baldwin was in tears in a New Mexico courtroom as Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed all charges against him in the “Lust” shooting.
Baldwin’s lawyers argued for the case to be dismissed, arguing that prosecutors had withheld key evidence, and the judge agreed.
According to the Associated Press, the defense argued that the state concealed evidence of ammunition that could be linked to the shooting. While the prosecution argued that the ammunition was not related to the incident and was not hidden, the defense argued that the state should have had the ability to determine the significance of the ammunition.
A judge dismissed the manslaughter charge, meaning he cannot be charged again.
“The belated discovery of this evidence during the trial prevented its effective use and undermined the fundamental fairness of the trial,” Marlow Sommer said. “Even if this conduct does not rise to the level of malice, the signs of malice are arguably close to it.”
Alec was seen embracing his emotional legal team and wife Hilaria following the judge’s verdict.
Baldwin is charged with felony manslaughter in the 2021 shooting death of cinematographer Halina Hutchins on the set of the film “Lust,” and his trial began this week.
After the verdict, Hutchins’ husband, Matthew Hutchins, released a statement through their lawyer, saying, “We respect the court’s decision and look forward to presenting all of the evidence to the jury and holding Mr. Baldwin accountable for his actions in the senseless death of Halina Hutchins.”
If convicted, Alec faces 18 months in prison.
