The special prosecutor leading the "Rust" film-set shooting criminal case resigned on Tuesday, following complaints from Alec Baldwin's legal team that her appointment was "unconstitutional." 

 

In a statement, Andrea Reeb said that "after much reflection" she had made the "difficult decision to step down as special prosecutor in the 'Rust' case."

 

Reeb was brought on as a special prosecutor in August, to help with charging decisions in the investigation into the 2021 fatal shooting on the "Rust" film set.
