Alec Baldwin Says ‘Rust’ D.A.’s Weapons Charge is Bogus

Alec Baldwin is pursuing the “Rust” district attorney … declaring she is charging him with something that wasn’t even a criminal offense when Halyna Hutchins was shot and eliminated.

As we reported, Baldwin has actually been charged with uncontrolled murder with a guns improvement. That guns improvement permits the judge to put Baldwin in jail for a MANDATORY 5 years.

Baldwin’s attorneys submitted legal docs Friday, arguing the guns improvement law was not gone by the New Mexico State Legislature till May, 2022 … 7 months AFTER the occurrence.

Now, there’s an old variation of the improvement law that was in result at the time of the “Rust” shooting, however that law needs that a gun be “brandished,” which term is specified as follows … “displaying or making a firearm known to another person … with intent to intimidate or injure a person.” Under any situation, Baldwin had no intent to hurt.

If the judge throws away the guns improvement charge, it considerably alters the penalty. He would just confront 18 months in jail, and the judge might give probation.
