New Mexico prosecutors have downgraded felony charges against Alec Baldwin and the armorer in the fatal “Rust” shooting, removing the threat that either could spend years in prison.
The most serious charge included a “firearms enhancement” penalty that carried a maximum five years in prison, if convicted.The downgrade happened after Baldwin’s attorneys argued that prosecutors improperly added the enhancement charge. They pointed to the fact that legislation mandating a five-year prison sentence had not taken effect in New Mexico until several months after the shooting took place.
