Prosecutor Challenges Dismissal of Alec Baldwin's 'Rust' Manslaughter Case
Judge's decision to throw out Baldwin's trial questioned over alleged evidence mishandling
- Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed Baldwin's case, citing withheld ammunition evidence.
- Prosecutor Kari Morrissey contends the judge misunderstood key testimony.
- Morrissey argues the dismissal was based on flawed reasoning and seeks to uphold the conviction of armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed.
- Gutierrez-Reed has requested a new trial, citing prosecutorial misconduct similar to Baldwin's case.
- Baldwin's lawyers claim the armorer was responsible for the fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins.
