A grand jury will be asked to consider "additional facts" in the on-set shooting, prosecutors say.

New Mexico prosecutors plan to recharge Alec Baldwin with involuntary manslaughter over a fatal on-set shooting in October 2021.

The prosecutors dismissed charges against the Emmy award-winning actor in April, just two weeks before his trial was due to start.

But “additional facts” merit bringing the case again before a grand jury next month, they said.

    My personal opinion: The public prosecutor’s want to fuck Baldwin hard because he impersonated Trump in several mock speeches

      The article also confuses me. FBI investigation broke the gun, so those parts were replaced.

      How can they still say with certainty that the gun wasn’t defect?

      Seems more like the police and investigators made a complete mess of this and they desperately need to slap someone with something to save face. Someone involved is directly culpable and the authorities have no idea who, because they did such a poor job.
