Prosecutor asks judge to reinstate Alec Baldwin’s film set shooting charge

After judge found evidence was intentionally withheld in July, involuntary manslaughter charges were dismissed

A prosecutor who led the case against Alec Baldwin has asked a New Mexico judge to reconsider the decision to dismiss the involuntary manslaughter charge against the actor in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of the western movie Rust.

The case against Baldwin was dismissed in dramatic fashion in July when, halfway through the trial, a judge found the prosecution and law enforcement had intentionally withheld evidence in the case that could have been favorable to the actor.
