Involuntary manslaughter is a fourth-degree felony in New Mexico that could include an 18-month sentence and a $5,000 fine.

Baldwin's attorney blasted the charges in a statement to Fox News.

"This decision distorts Halyna Hutchins’ tragic death and represents a terrible miscarriage of justice," Luke Nikas of Quinn Emanuel said.

"Mr. Baldwin had no reason to believe there was a live bullet in the gun – or anywhere on the movie set. He relied on the professionals with whom he worked, who assured him the gun did not have live rounds. We will fight these charges, and we will win," he added.

The case will continue to be closely watched by the nation as Baldwin's fate is decided in the tragic and controversial case.
