New Mexico prosecutors recently dropped an involuntary manslaughter charge against Alec Baldwin in relation to the fatal 2021 "Rust" movie set shooting near Santa Fe. Attorneys cited 'new facts' that demand further investigation in their case dismissal.
While prosecutors can still refile charges, the sudden shift comes after months of reports about procedural challenges to the prosecution. The Santa Fe District Attorney's Office has faced issues, including the timing of charges and changes to who is going to prosecute the case.
This week on the podcast, a longtime criminal defense attorney and legal expert, Ahmad Assed, returns to the show. Assed helps us break down the complications of the case and what thinks is next.
