Six months after being cleared of criminal charges in the 'Rust' shooting death, actor Alec Baldwin has filed a suit alleging malicious prosecution and defamation by New Mexico prosecutors and law enforcement.

Six months after being cleared of criminal charges in the 'Rust' shooting death, actor Alec Baldwin has filed a suit alleging malicious prosecution and defamation by New Mexico prosecutors and law enforcement. The 73-page civil complaint, filed Thursday in Santa Fe, N.M., names special prosecutor Kari T. Morrissey, 1st Judicial Dist. Atty. Mary Carmack-Altwies, Santa Fe County sheriff's deputies and the Santa Fe County commission.

Instead, defense attorneys raised new questions over how New Mexico law enforcement officers and prosecutors handled evidence and grilled those seeking to prosecute Baldwin for the October 2021 death of Halyna Hutchins. The decision ended a nearly three-year ordeal for the “30 Rock” and “Hunt for Red October” star after the on-set tragedy, when Baldwin accidentally shot Hutchins, the cinematographer on the low-budget western, during a preliminary run-through of a scene.
