The charges were dropped pending further investigation because of timeline restraints. Charges of some degree may still be filed or they may not.

This is destined for Civil Suit. He's going to get killed in the settlement. So are all the producers of the set.
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

Doesn't seem 100% out of the woods on this yet:


"Chief District Judge Bryan Biedscheid also declined to delay proceedings despite arguments by Baldwin's legal team that doing to so would put their client at risk of self-incrimination since prosecutors have yet to decide whether to refile criminal charges against him over the fatal on-set shooting of a cinematographer."
