April Jobs Report Shows New Jobs Added Despite Tariffs and Recession Fears
Alec Baldwin Trial Dismissed
Actor Alec Baldwin also faced an involuntary manslaughter charge in the same shooting. However, during Baldwin’s July 2024 trial, the case took a dramatic turn.
According to CBS News, the judge dismissed the case with prejudice, citing prosecutorial misconduct after Baldwin’s defense team alleged key evidence was withheld.
The dismissal means Baldwin cannot be retried on the same charge, effectively ending the high-profile case against him.
Remembering Halyna Hutchins
Halyna Hutchins, a rising cinematographer and mother, has been memorialized by many in the film industry. Her widower, Matthew Hutchins, reached a civil settlement with Baldwin and others in 2022 but continues to speak publicly about improving safety protocols in film production.
“There is no such thing as a small mistake when you’re handling firearms,” Hutchins said in a CBS News interview. “We owe it to everyone working in the industry to ensure something like this never happens again.”
