TL;DR Summary

Alec Baldwin's lawyers have filed a motion to dismiss the involuntary manslaughter charge against him, alleging that prosecutors violated court orders and unfairly stacked the deck against him. They claim that the prosecution unlawfully deprived the grand jury of evidence favorable to Baldwin and publicly dragged him through the improprieties. Baldwin is set to face trial in July after being re-charged in January for the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of Rust in 2021. This motion comes after the Rust armourer was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
