Alec Baldwin Prosecutor Says Case Was Dismissed Because Judge Misunderstood Evidence
Kari Morrissey, the prosecutor in the 'Rust' trials, argued that Alec Baldwin's case was dismissed because the judge misunderstood the evidence.
The prosecutor in the “ Rust ” case argued that Alec Baldwin ‘s manslaughter charge was improperly thrown out because the judge misunderstood the evidence at a crucial hearing. In a written order last week, Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer faulted Morrissey for “willful and deliberate misconduct” and for eliciting false testimony about the bullets in front of the jury. Gutierrez Reed’s lawyers have argued that her conviction should be thrown out because the state failed to turn over an interview with weapons supplier Seth Kenney and a forensic report that found unexplained toolmarks on Baldwin’s gun, both of which were given to the defense only after the trial.
