    From the article:
    "Baldwin lawyer Alex Spiro asked whether a “good Samaritan” had come into the sheriff’s office with the ammunition earlier this year after the trial of Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the film’s armorer, for her role in Hutchins’ death."

    Good Samaritan? WTF does that even mean in this context?

    I didn't catch the whole story, but it sounded like the judge was saying that the prosecution screwed up royally, not turning over "evidence" in disclosure.

    Make you wonder how F'ed up the gov't side of our legal systems can operate and get away with it for-ever, until they are caught?

    The Delphi murders case comes to mind, as another example?

    So the person who actually pulled the trigger walks, and another individual is behind bars?

    Alec Baldwin is a bag of ****. Bags of **** have Constitutional Rights in this country. This bag of ****'s attorneys made the argument that evidence was withheld.

    I'm sure this bag of **** would be just fine with other US Citizens having their 6th Amendment Rights violated. Informed of the nature of the accusation? Compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor? Sound familiar?

    Sounds like Judge basically said prosecution did more than screw up and intentionally covered up evidence that would have benefited the defense and the case was dismissed with prejudice (can't be retried).

    So, can the prosecutor be charged for obstruction of justice?
    They should be.

    The prosecution got caught hiding exculpatory evidence and paid the ultimate price; dismissal with prejudice. Its amazing that we often only hear of this happening in "celebrity" cases; however, it happens all the time. Corrupt prosecutors hide evidence even against innocent people just to improve their conviction record. Try going to court "pro se" or witness a trial in traffic court where the defendant is "pro se" and you will see the greatest abuse of "justice" you will ever witness. The prosecution will trample the defendant.
    Forget all the whining about Baldwin being a POS celebrity. The fact remains that the prosecution withheld exculpatory evidence and paid the ultimate price. Period. End of story!
