'Rust' Special Prosecutor Resigns from Alec Baldwin Case.

TL;DR
Andrea Reeb, the special prosecutor for the "Rust" movie-set shooting case, has stepped down, dealing a blow to the case against actor Alec Baldwin for the accidental shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Baldwin's legal team had filed a motion demanding Reeb's removal due to her conflicting roles. Reeb, a Republican state legislator, said she was stepping down to ensure justice is served in the case. Baldwin faces a possible 18 months in prison if convicted of involuntary manslaughter. The court still needs to decide if there is enough evidence to take the case to trial.
