New Mexico officials move his case alleging malicious prosecution in the 'Rust' shooting.

ALEC Baldwin claims he was a scapegoat in the on-set fatal shooting.
Four years after the “Rust” movie shooting, New Mexico officials have moved Alec Baldwin's lawsuit alleging malicious prosecution to federal court.
This week’s filing is the latest twist in the long legal saga after the October 2021 onset death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Baldwin, the 67-year-old star and a producer of the western film, had been facing a felony involuntary manslaughter charge for his role in Hutchins’ accidental shooting. But the judge overseeing Baldwin’s case abruptly dismissed the charge against him during his July 2024 trial after concluding that prosecutors withheld evidence that may have been helpful to his legal team.
