Prosecutors withdraw appeal against Baldwin
The judge dismissed the case, and now prosecutors in New Mexico are withdrawing their appeal against the decision, in the case where actor Alec Baldwin was charged with causing the death of another.
In October 2021, Baldwin fired a shot that killed photographer Halyna Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza during the filming of the movie “Rust.” The weapon, which would have been loaded with loose rounds, turned out to be live loaded.
The trial was dropped in July due to allegations that police and prosecutors withheld evidence from the defense. But prosecutors appealed the judge’s decision to dismiss the case, an appeal they now announce they are withdrawing.
The weapon responsible for the filming, 24-year-old Hanna Gutierrez Reed, has previously been sentenced to one and a half years in prison for causing the death of another.

Well-preserved mammoth tongue found in Siberia
A 50,000-year-old mammoth tongue has been found in the permafrost of the Russian sub-republic of Sacha in eastern Siberia.
Russian scientists on Monday unveiled the remarkably well-preserved remains of a female mammoth found in the permafrost-covered region of Sacha.
According to experts, “Jana”, named after a nearby river, is the best-preserved mammoth remains in the world and one of only seven whole mammoth bodies ever found.
Studies will now be carried out to determine her exact age at the time of death, but it is estimated to be around a year.
The remains weigh 180 kilograms and measure 120 centimeters high. The researchers call it “a unique discovery”.
