Early this year, prosecutors formally charged Alec Baldwin with manslaughter<\/a> following the tragic Rust <\/em>shooting.<\/p>\n

The mishap was the result of a confluence of mistakes that should never, ever have happened. No one should die to make a movie. <\/p>\n

Additionally, public reactions showed clear influence from politics \u2014 and from Alec being personally unlikable. He was controversial even before <\/em>he held a prop gun that killed a beloved cinematographer and wounded the director.<\/p>\n

Now, authorities have dropped the charges (for now). Alec is breathing a sigh of relief, and thanking a couple of people in particular.<\/p>\n
