Alec Baldwin, the renowned actor, is set to face fresh charges in connection with the tragic ‘Rust’ movie set shooting that occurred last year.

Prosecutors have decided to recharge Baldwin, citing new evidence that has come to light in the ongoing investigation.

The incident, which took place on the New Mexico set of the Western film, resulted in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and left director Joel Souza injured.

Initially, Baldwin claimed he was handed a loaded gun without his knowledge, leading to the accidental discharge. However, the recent developments have prompted authorities to revisit the case.

The nature of the new evidence remains undisclosed at this time, but it has evidently raised questions about Baldwin’s previous statements and actions leading up to the tragedy. Legal experts anticipate that the actor may face charges related to negligence or mishandling of firearms on the set.

Baldwin’s legal team has yet to release a statement regarding the impending charges.

The actor has maintained that he had no intention of harming anyone and expressed deep sorrow for the loss of life. #featured

MDMA is a drug commonly known as molly or ecstasy.

Some medical professionals say it can be helpful for people with post-traumatic stress disorder — which is why a group has been fighting to get MDMA legalized as a prescription drug.

Currently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is reviewing an application to use MDMA to treat PTSD. The agency is expected to announce its ruling as soon as August.
