New Mexico prosecutor Kari T. Morrissey has asked the judge to reconsider dismissing criminal charges against actor Alec Baldwin. In court documents filed Wednesday and obtained by NBC News, Morrissey said the grounds for dismissing Baldwin's case in July were irrelevant. NBC News has reached out to Baldwin's legal team for comment. Baldwin was on trial earlier this summer in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was fatally shot on the 'Rust' movie set in 2021.
” Her decision centered on live ammunition that had been turned over to the New Mexico sheriff's office during Reed's trial by Troy Teske, a friend of Reed's stepfather. During the trial, it was revealed that authorities, with Morrissey's permission, filed the ammunition under a different case number and failed to notify Baldwin's attorneys. Morrissey tried to reassure the judge that there had been no malfeasance by the prosecution and even called herself as a witness.
