It's too bad the clueless don't always have someone telling them what is and what is not a good idea.

Her Attorney's paralegal told her during a call that these calls were recorded. Hannah seems way to self a absorbed to understand how the real world works.

For anyone interested, NM courts created a "high profile cases" page, which has docket items for cases stemming from the Rust shooting (the only "high profile" cases so far):

There are now multiple motions to dismiss from Team Baldwin, which will be argued at a May 17 hearing. One based on Grand Jury improprieties and prosecutorial misconduct; one based on destruction of evidence, and one -- which I find a philosophically interesting -- based on failure to allege an offense at all under NM law due to lack of any evidence of the requisite mens rea for involuntary manslaughter. The last requires criminal negligence = subjective awareness of creating a risk to others, per NM case law. The argument there also involves commitments made by the state in the Guittierez trial.
