I think you overestimate Baldwin’s current star power. These days, he’s a B-lister, at best. Aside from this trial, he hasn’t really been relevant in pop culture for a while now.
He’s still rich, for sure. But I doubt he’s still rich enough to buy a judge, if he ever was to begin with.
The Baldwins are extremely well connected. One of them is married to Justin Bieber. Who just got 10mil for performing at that 350mil Indian wedding. Alec is also a movie producer, which you cannot do if you have no money.
What if that judge’s daughter is a huge Justin Bieber fan? Or wants front row tickets to a fashion show or backstage Coachella passes? Or attend a movie premiere? That’s all within his scope
Nah, this sort of shit happens all the time.
Baldwin just has the power and influence to fight the charge.

If there’s one thing we’ve discovered over the years, those in charge are surprisingly cheap to bribe.

Not on high profile cases, no it does not.
(Well, excluding Trump trials … Trump truly hires the best.)
My cynical self agrees with you. But also, Hanlon’s Razor.
