The prosecution and the police need to be held accountable for hiding evidence.

Perhaps they got cocky because Hannah Gutierrez Reed was found guilty? You're right about the lack of professionalism; although the sentence for involuntary manslaughter is relatively short it's still a very serious crime yet the prosecution team was sloppy. Although Alec Baldwin deserves no special treatment, one would have thought the prosecution team, knowing this trial was being streamed and would have a wide audience (hello from England by the way), they would make sure there were no potential glitches. Instead, their underhand conduct backfired on them.
