Alec Baldwin trial dismissed

Kari Morrissey, the special prosecutor in Alec Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter case, claims the trial's dismissal was improper, alleging that Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer misunderstood the evidence. The judge had dismissed the case due to misconduct by police and prosecutors regarding withheld ammunition evidence related to the shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of 'Rust'. Morrissey is also opposing a retrial request by Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, who is serving an 18-month sentence for her involvement in the incident. In her filings, Morrissey argues that there are key differences between the Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reed cases concerning the evidence available to the prosecution. She maintains that the dismissal of Baldwin's case was flawed and that neither Baldwin nor Gutierrez-Reed should receive leniency. The situation reflects ongoing tensions within the prosecution team and the complexities of the legal proceedings surrounding the tragic incident.
