Alec Baldwin Prosecutor Asks Judge to Revive ‘Rust’ Case, Hints at Appeal
The prosecutor in the 'Rust' trial asked the judge to reconsider her decision to throw out a charge against Alec Baldwin, and hinted at an appeal.
Kari Morrissey, the special prosecutor appointed to handle the “Rust” cases, argued that the defense had successfully “confused” Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer about the relevance of evidence that had been withheld.
