A New Mexico judge on Friday threw out the involuntary manslaughter case against Alec Baldwin in the middle of his trial and said it cannot be filed again.
A New Mexico judge dismissed the manslaughter case against Alec Baldwin Friday in a bombshell mid-trial development — finding that prosecutors withheld critical evidence from the defense.
Baldwin, 66, sobbed in Santa Fe court as the charges — related to the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of “Rust” — were suddenly tossed. He hugged his wife Hilaria Baldwin, who was also crying.
