In legal documents obtained by Fox News, Baldwin’s response is outlined, emphasizing his entitlement to a fair and speedy disposition of the charges. The documents state, “Mr. Baldwin is entitled to a fair and speedy disposition of the charges to minimize public vilification and suspicion and to avoid the hazards of proving his innocence that often arise after lengthy delays in a prosecution.”
The recent developments underscore the gravity of the situation, stemming from the tragic incident on the “Rust” set, where Baldwin, using a prop gun, unintentionally fired a live round that resulted in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. While Baldwin consistently describes the event as a horrific accident, New Mexico prosecutors have suggested potential criminal negligence.
Baldwin’s legal team addressed the need for timely access to results or reports of physical or mental examinations, scientific tests, or experiments related to the case. This request reflects the actor’s commitment to a transparent legal process and his pursuit of a fair trial.
The actor, who had previously faced similar charges that were later dropped, maintains his innocence throughout the legal proceedings. Baldwin was recently indicted by a grand jury on new charges related to involuntary manslaughter, either through negligent use of a firearm or, alternatively, involuntary manslaughter without due caution or circumspection.
