Alec Baldwin has filed a lawsuit against the district attorney and other Santa Fe officials, alleging prosecutors “sought at every turn to scapegoat” him.It’s the latest in a series of legal disputes that followed the actor’s involvement in a fatal on-set incident. On October 21, 2021, Baldwin discharged a revolver used as a prop and was unaware that it had been improperly loaded with live ammunition, resulting in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.In a 2023 trial, the 30 Rock actor was charged with involuntary manslaughter in a case which was then dropped and was tried again in 2024.The prosecution intended to show that Baldwin was reckless and criminally negligent when he fired the revolver, but the case was dismissed with prejudice after Baldwin’s lawyers revealed that the prosecution and the local sheriffs had concealed a cache of bullets that was considered evidence.

Alec Baldwin sues prosecutors and investigators tied to ‘Rust’ case

Actor Alec Baldwin has filed a civil lawsuit for malicious prosecution and civil rights violations in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of the Western movie “Rust.”The lawsuit was filed Thursday at state district court in Santa Fe, where a judge in July dismissed a charge of involuntary manslaughter against Baldwin in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.Baldwin also alleges defamation in the suit, saying that prosecutors and investigators intentionally mishandled evidence as they pursued the case.Defendants named in the lawsuit include special prosecutor Kari Morrissey and Santa Fe District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies, along with three investigators from the Santa Fe County sheriff’s office and the county board of commissioners.“Defendants sought at every turn to scapegoat Baldwin for the acts and omissions of others, regardless of the evidence or the law,” the lawsuit states. It also says prosecutors and investigators targeted Baldwin for professional or political gain.Hutchins died shortly after being wounded during a rehearsal for the movie “Rust” in October 2021 at a film-set ranch on the outskirts of Santa Fe, New Mexico.Baldwin, the lead actor and co-producer, was pointing a pistol at Hutchins when it discharged, killing Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.

Alec Baldwin manslaughter case dropped by New Mexico prosecutor

the fatal shooting on the set of his movie “Rust” in 2021 ended on Monday, with a prosecutor dropping her appeal of the case’s dismissal.Special Prosecutor Kari Morrissey withdrew that appeal, according to a statement from the Frist Judicial District Attorney’s office.Baldwin’s lawyers Luke Nikas and Alex Spiro said in a statement that “today’s decision to dismiss the appeal is the final vindication of what Alec Baldwin and his attorneys have said from the beginning — this was an unspeakable tragedy but Alec Baldwin committed no crime.”A New Mexico judge had dismissed involuntary manslaughter charges against Baldwin in July, agreeing with the actor’s lawyers that Morrissey and the sheriff’s office concealed evidence about the source of the live round that killed “Rust” cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in 2021.The district attorney’s office said it still strongly disagreed with the judge’s decision to toss out the case against Baldwin.But the decision to drop the appeal of that decision was made after the Office of the Attorney General told Morrissey that it “did not intend to exhaustively pursue the appeal on behalf of the prosecution,” according to the statement.Hutchins died when Baldwin pointed a gun at her as they set up a camera shot on a movie set near Santa Fe. The gun fired a live round inadvertently loaded by the movie’s chief weapons handler Hannah Gutierrez.

Judge upholds dismissal of involuntary manslaughter charge against Alec Baldwin in on-set shooting

upheld her decision to dismiss an involuntary manslaughter charge against Alec Baldwin in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of a Western movie.In a ruling Thursday, state District Court Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer stood by her July decision to dismiss an involuntary manslaughter charge against Baldwin. She said prosecutors did not raise any factual or legal arguments that would justify reversing her decision.“Because the state’s amended motion raises arguments previously made, and arguments that the state elected not to raise earlier, the court does not find the amended motion well taken,” the judge wrote, adding that the request was also untimely.A spokesperson for Baldwin’s lawyers said Friday that they had no immediate reaction to the decision.Special prosecutor Kari Morrissey told The Associated Press that she disagrees with the court’s analysis and will appeal the ruling.

Convicted ‘Rust’ armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed pleads guilty in separate criminal charge

18-month prison term at a New Mexico state penitentiary for involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.In the “Rust” case, prosecutors blamed Gutierrez-Reed for unwittingly bringing live ammunition onto the movie set and for failing to follow basic gun safety protocols.Gutierrez-Reed shuffled into the Santa Fe courtroom Monday in a beige jumpsuit, handcuffs and ankle shackles to change her plea to guilty and waive her right to trial.“I’d just like to apologize to the court and thank you for your judgment today,” she said.The case stems from evidence that a few weeks before “Rust” began filming in October 2021, Gutierrez-Reed carried a gun into a downtown bar in Santa Fe where firearms are prohibited.Special prosecutor Kari Morrissey said Gutierrez-Reed filmed herself in the bathroom of the bar with a handgun — explaining how she snuck in the prohibited firearm in a video that was obtained when authorities searched the armorer’s phone during the “Rust” investigation.Gutierrez-Reed was convicted in March at trial of involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Hutchins. She has an appeal of that conviction pending in a higher court.Baldwin, the lead actor and co-producer for “Rust,” was pointing a gun at Hutchins during a rehearsal for the film when the revolver went off, killing Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.In July, Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed an involuntary manslaughter case against Baldwin halfway through a trial based on the withholding of evidence by police and prosecutors from the defense.

‘Rust’ Armorer Loses Bid for New Trial Over Withheld Evidence

Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer A judge on Monday upheld a guilty verdict against “Rust” armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed, finding that withheld evidence would not have changed the outcome of the trial. The defense asked for a new trial on the grounds that the prosecution had failed to turn over a forensic report and an interview with weapons supplier Seth Kenney. “Defendant has not established that there is a reasonable probability that, had the evidence been available to Defendant, the evidence would have produced a different verdict,” wrote Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer, in her opinion.

‘Rust’ Judge to Rule Next Week on Armorer’s Bid for New Trial

Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer A judge is set to rule next week on whether to overturn the conviction of “Rust” armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed, who is serving an 18-month sentence in the accidental death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. During a virtual hearing on Thursday, Gutierrez Reed’s attorney, Jason Bowles, urged Santa Fe Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer to dismiss the case because evidence was withheld before her trial in February. Bowles alluded to the judge’s decision to dismiss a similar charge against Alec Baldwin, calling that “one of the biggest debacles of ethical misconduct, probably in the history of New Mexico.” He argued that Gutierrez Reed was subject to similar misconduct, and should get the same result.
