Alec Baldwin cleared of charges in 'Rust' shooting.

TL;DR Summary
Involuntary manslaughter charges against Alec Baldwin in the Rust shooting will be dismissed due to "new facts" in the case, according to New Mexico special prosecutors. The decision does not absolve Baldwin of criminal culpability, and charges may be refiled. The prosecutors' follow-up investigation will remain active and ongoing. The gun used in the shooting had been modified, which could have impacted how the gun functioned. The charges against "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed remain unchanged.
