Alec Baldwin Plans To Sue Santa Fe Officials After ‘Rust’ Case Dismissal

Alec Baldwin’s legal team has warned the Santa Fe sheriff and prosecutors of “future litigation” following the dismissal of the charge against him in the Rust shooting trial. Through “preservation notices” sent Monday and obtained by Rolling Stone, Baldwin’s lawyers instructed Santa Fe prosecutor Kari Morrissey and Sheriff Adan Mendoza to “preserve all relevant information in your possession, custody, and/or control.” The judge’s decision to dismiss the felony count of involuntary manslaughter against Baldwin came after it was determined that prosecutors withheld evidence from the defense. The case was dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be re-filed. (Rolling Stone)
