The initiation showers with Ol' Rumpleforeskin will be uncomfortable, though.
I think it takes a real bunch of Hollowoody dumbasses to allow live ammunition into a place where idiots are aiming guns at one another and pulling the triggers. But that’s just me.
Yup....someone lied...they said the gun had been tampered with (modified)...and they have now proven that false.
Everyone in the media is aghast, they don’t want Alex punished. Like Tony Dickopil said on CBS this morning, prosecuting him want bring the girl back.
Two years for the NM State Police to finish their investigation?
Were they waiting for a retirement before they closed the “investigation”?
She could have insisted Alec Baldwin practice the scene with a blue safety gun.
She could have insisted Alec Baldwin practice the scene with a prop gun instead of a real one.
She could have directed Alec Baldwin to point the gun in a safe direction instead of directly at her.
She could have insisted on ballistic shields for safety.
She could have worn a bullet-proof vest and helmet.
But...
Maybe this was Suicide by Baldwin?
Doesn’t change the fact he pulled the trigger and killed her, but that’s the only thing that makes sense to me. Otherwise who the hell allowed live ammo to be loaded into that gun?
If Baldwin was rehearsing a gun-to-the-head suicide scene he probably would have checked the weapon.
It’s possible that it was so traumatic when it happened he seriously has no memory of pulling the trigger. I really don’t think that he was intending to murder his friend. If someone was going to murder someone they wouldn’t do it in front of everyone and the camera was probably rolling. Total setup or someone, the girl in charge of the props maybe, had not checked the prop gun.
I know, he was supposed to look in the gun himself and he didn’t but that doesn’t mean he is a murderer. He is very much in trouble but I think it’s very likely he does not remember pulling the trigger.
It was a real gun, not a prop.
The set armorer did not check the weapon and clear it for set use AFTER some of the crew had loaded real ammo and fired it at some cans and bottles off the set. There was still a real round in the weapon, which Baldwin assumed was unloaded and safety checked........................
Yes. I know all this.
If only people who didn’t intend harm, perhaps by strolling through a door that was opened for them, got leniency because of a lack of intent.
Hollywood’s own Yosemite Sam II rides again.
Is this recharge on Alex Balwin a way to keep our eyes off the failing Biden administration? OJ Simpson 2.

Baldwin has had great legal representation, and they were able to get the charges dismissed "without predjudice" since the FBI forensics team had "broken" the pistol's firing mechanism during their testing, which also showed that the Pistol was in regular order. But the DA submitted the pistol to their indepented experts, who have not verified the FBI crime lab's findings that the pistol could not have been fired without the trigger having been pressed.
Baldwin has basically admitted that he knew that it was a real gun, that he didn't check it, and has claimed, improbably, that he didn't "pull the trigger". That obvious lie has now been disproven, and he's obviously guilty. Chances are he'll serve no time in some sort of plea deal, but at least there's some semblance of reality being applied, finally. Anyone else would have been convicted long ago.
Halyna Hutchins, another person killed who made a documentary about human trafficking in hollywood and was near release.
that doesn’t mean he is a murderer.
He's never been charged with murder, and won't be.
