Judge dismisses Alec Baldwin’s manslaughter case in ‘Rust’ shooting
The shocking dismissal came after defense lawyers claimed that investigators had improperly withheld potential evidence that would have helped the actor’s defense in the fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins on a film set.
New York judge throws out Rudy Giuliani’s bankruptcy case
The decision paves the way for two former Georgia election workers who won a defamation claim against him to pursue and potentially seize his assets.

by Curt_Anderson on July 12, 2024 5:19 pm Ted Goodman, a spokesman for Giuliani, called the decision “yet another example of the effort to punish” Giuliani.
Well, DUH! Giuliani lost a defamation lawsuit and has yet to fork over a nickel to the victims. Slanderers are supposed to be punished when they lose their case.

by oldedude on July 14, 2024 6:59 am In the "Rust" case. Prosecution did not divulge evidence that ammo had been "dropped off" to the set. Rounds that would potentially fit the gun. That is a violation of discovery law, a first-year law students' course. The point is; if either side "doesn't know" if it's part of discovery, then it is. And they got busted for it.
Poppell confirmed under oath that the sheriff’s office was given Colt .45 rounds by Troy Teske, a former police officer and friend of Thell Reed, the stepfather of “Rust” armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed. In fact, according to that testimony, Teske dropped off the rounds on the same day Gutierrez-Reed was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in Hutchins’ death. (She was later sentenced to 18 months behind bars.)
Spiro and Baldwin’s other attorneys pounced on this revelation, arguing that prosecutors had concealed evidence of ammunition that may have been linked to the fatal shooting. The defense lawyers asked the judge to dismiss the case, arguing in part that they should have had the ability to determine for themselves whether the ammunition brought in by Teske was important. nbcnews.com
