As the armourer, she and the prop master had one job - make sure the prop was safe. They blew it and someone died.
Did anyone take prints from the fired rounds empty case?
There has been speculation that live rounds were introduced by union members...
I lol’ed at “extreme online abuse”.
Baldwin had not known the gun had live ammunition in it, however the 63-year-old has been subject to extreme online abuse in the wake of the incident.

In picking up the firearm Alec Baldwin became responsible for determining whether or not the firearm had live ammunition in it. As executive producer Baldwin was responsible for the hiring and supervision of all and any of the people who could have loaded or handled the firearm.
I'm sure it'll be fine.
“”she had been overruled on safety issues.””
If true that is the moment she should have loaded up all her weapons and gear and left the set.
We’re going to hear a lot of statements from lawyers about the innocence of their clients, and everybody is going to be pointing fingers at everybody else. The SO is still investigating and taking statements, more and more info will come to the surface.
“Hannah had no idea where the live rounds came from.”
The big problem she has to face is how a round or rounds got into one of her pistols.
Looks mature and level headed to me /SARC
A good lawyer would have told her to keep her mouth shut. Is she being set up to be the fall ‘guy’ for Baldwin?

Actually it was her lawyers who spoke out.
She’s just the fall guy, Baldwin knew what he was doing
That sounds like peacefully in her own bed, surrounded by her children and grandchildren at the age of 88.
How about "died" or "was killed"?
The armourer was asleep
at the switch.
“Court records revealed Baldwin was under the impression the gun was completely safe, prior to the accidental shooting.”
Above is one of the last lines in the article. Anyone (or should I say EVERYone) notice the obvious? Baldwin was under the impression the gun was completely “safe”. No such thing as a real gun being completely safe when it’s in the hands of a bunch of liberals with IQs barely above freezing.
Paging Sgt Schultz
She’s 24, a green stage hand unlikely to ever work on a movie set again, probably couldn’t pay someone to act as a spokesperson even if she wanted to, and probably just the act of retaining a lawyer will exhaust her finances.
Alec Baldwin is a millionaire many times over, probably has had assistants, fixers, connections and staffers to handle things like lawyers and statements and friendly media writeups for decades.
Which one do you think is going to look like a hot mess in the media?
I'm not a lawyer (and I don't need to stay in Holiday Inns any more) but I'd think that RULE #1 of criminal defense is to NEVER, EVER let your clients say anything that can be used in court against them.
“Hannah and the prop master gained control over the guns…”
Apparently not.

So the "I didn't know it was loaded" defense may actually work here, for the first time in history.
