Alec Baldwin's Legal Troubles: Latest Updates and Future Implications

Criminal charges against Alec Baldwin have been dropped in the Rust case, but the civil lawsuit against him will proceed. Baldwin returned to the set of the Western film almost two years after a gun he was practicing with went off and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
