Alec Baldwin faces new charges of involuntary manslaughter once more

Actor Alec Baldwin has been charged with involuntary manslaughter by a grand jury in New Mexico. This comes after previous charges against him were dropped in April, just before a criminal trial was set to begin. The charges were dropped due to new forensic testing of the gun used in the shooting incident. Baldwin's attorneys have stated that they are looking forward to presenting their case in court. The incident occurred on the set of the movie Rust, where Baldwin was practicing firing a Colt .45 pistol. The gun accidentally discharged, fatally shooting cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza. Baldwin has maintained that he did not pull the trigger and only drew back the hammer of the pistol. However, special prosecutors in New Mexico claim that analysis of the weapon suggests that it could not have been fired without pulling the trigger.
