In the days following the shooting, Kenney went with the “it’s her fault no matter what because she’s the armorer” defense. This implies he felt his ability to prove the rounds he supplied were clean was in question.

The armorer is going to be the only person authorized to bring ammo to the set.
Kenney handed his supply over to the armorer.

A friend of Thell Reed brought ammunition to the police he said was pertinent to the killing. The prosecution deemed it irrelevant, but failed to inform or make it available to the defense.
The prosecution decided to publicly defend this to the judge, and the special prosecutor walked in protest.
Judge didn’t buy what the prosecution was selling. Case dismissed with prejudice. Baldwin’s a free man.

A Brady violation, seriously? No matter what you think of the case, I think you can expect Baldwin to have top notch legal representation and lots of public attention to the case.
I wonder whether this has any implication for the armorer's case, too. (I haven't kept tabs, but I reckon this is something to file an appeal if one hasn't been filed already.)

I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

FWIU, the armorer wants to add it to her appeal, which is already in progress.
Not sure how that would work though. Introducing new evidence to an appeal is tricky. Also, it’s not like the evidence comes from a disinterested party. Lastly, IIUC, he didn’t give it to the police until the day the jury in her trial delivered a verdict.
