Hollywood star Alec Baldwin was denied by a Mexican judge on Friday who had requested that the involuntary manslaughter charge against him be dropped in the case involving the alleged spontaneous filming of director Halyna Hutchins on the collection of Rust, which led to on-the-spot death. The professional will now go on trial on July 10.
In a court filing, district court judge Mary Marlowe Sommer claimed that she had properly informed jurors about a notice from Baldwin’s legal team listing security jurors they may call and that she had found no instances of legal bad faith in the grand jury, no errors in jury instructions, and that she had found no legal negative faith in the grand jury.
The prosecutor rejected defense claims that grand jury members had omitted arbitrary evidence and witnesses from the information.
The judge wrote that” New Mexico law does not require a counsel to present circumstantial evidence to a grand jury, nor does it require a great jury to also consider circumstantial evidence after being informed of its existence.”
After Baldwin pointed a firearm at her while she was setting up camera pictures on a movie set near Santa Fe, New Mexico, Hutchins was shot with a life large. The” Glengarry Glen Ross” sun claims that he did not take the necessary steps to solve the situation.
The majority of disagreements between the prosecution and defense viewpoints are scientific disagreements, according to Tre Lovell, a trial attorney for business and entertainment. Juries are supposed to determine this.
“Educating a jury about a movie set is the actual technique,” Lovell said.
Baldwin’s pistol was tested by the FBI and an independent firearms expert hired by the prosecutors, who later discovered that it would n’t fire until the trigger was pulled.
The security contends that the revolver’s hammer and induce were modified to facilitate firing, leading to an unexpected release.
