Alec Baldwin's Involuntary Manslaughter Case Concludes as Prosecutors Withdraw Appeal; Charges from October 2021 Shooting of Halyna Hutchins Dismissed
Dec 24, 2024, 09:30 AM
The involuntary manslaughter case against actor Alec Baldwin has officially concluded, following the withdrawal of an appeal by special prosecutor Kari Morrissey. This decision, announced on December 23, 2024, comes after a Santa Fe judge dismissed the charges earlier in July 2024. The case stemmed from the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film 'Rust' in October 2021. Prosecutors cited concerns over evidence as a reason for not pursuing the appeal. Baldwin's legal team has described the decision as a 'final vindication' for the actor, who has maintained his innocence throughout the proceedings. With the appeal withdrawn, Baldwin will no longer face any charges related to the incident.
