Alec Baldwin Judge Slams Prosecutor For Cutting Her Off: ‘I’m Not Finished’

Things became fiery in the courtroom on Friday morning during the Alec Baldwin trial as the defense and the state argued over conduct in the courtroom and other issues. When the state cut off the judge and asked to respond to the defense's statement, Judge Sommer responded by saying, "I'm not finished!" When state attorney Kari Morrisey tried to continue talking, Sommer cut her off, hinting to Morrissey to end her statement.

Famed actor and movie producer Alec Baldwin was indicted on one count of involuntary manslaughter in January for the death of 42-year-old cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Hutchins died on Baldwin’s “Rust” movie set. Armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for Hutchins’ death. She was sentenced to 18 months in prison.

Deliberately withholding any evidence, let alone exculpatory evidence, is unforgivable. And since that prosecutor lied about it to both the judge and the defense repeatedly and then got busted on it, after the jury was sworn in, thats it, the judge had to dismiss the case with prejudice.
And frankly, the prosecutor should be sanctioned and disbarred.

[kgraham]

The judge does not appear at all pleased with the prosecution, and she’s not up for any of her BS. 😂

[marytrainer]

The judge is fed up with the prosecutor. The prosecutor is not coming across well. If I were a juror I’d be disgusted with her.

[Fee]

Oh my, that mild-mannered, soft-spoken judge is MAD!
😮 😡

[s.d.]

This prosecutor is a mess. Can't stand her arrogance

[nealprentice]

So much respect for the judge. What a job to sit through this mess to have the patience and diligence to sift through everything.

AT LAST!!! The judge stopped her from her rudeness. Yay! 😂

[Hunee-]

This judge does not play. AB should’ve requested a bench trial. I have a feeling, based on the judge’s demeanor, she’s not liking the prosecution’s antics.

[WindyCityAudit]

Yes a Judge who takes law and order seriously

[dextervonwhiplash]

This arrogant and corrupt prosecutor was looking for fame and admiration and will now be forever seen as committing major misconduct! She should be disbarred!

[falcon]

Why didnt police ever get those bullets directly from Hannah's house. This is crazy. A real sh#!show

[AviatorJohn]

Case dismisses with prejudice as it should be. Corrupt prosecutors!

[kathybelk]

There's a thing called "chain of custody" isn't there? No telling where this evidence has been, who it belongs to, where it came from!
Seems like they just want to prosecute him as an example. It wasn't his job to prepare the props!!
Why are they using a real gun anyway?

[natalie]

Finally. Being the sole face of this for over a year is unfathomable. Strong man.

[DRUM]

'I don't need the box I need Popple!', this judge bout to throw the Starbucks cup all over the place.

[ElectronEntanglement]

I smell corruption from the prosecution.

[hotfightinghistory]

When prosecutors see trials as an escalator to higher public office, justice is the first step trodden on.

[MartinisnOlives]

That prosecutor must be the most unlikeable character in the legal community.

[THE-X-Force]

"Slams" is more than a little hyperbolic.

[justincombs]

I think this was a tragic accident. There is no reason to believe that a well established actor with millions of dollars would intentionally harm someone on set.
