this idiot admits to pulling back the ‘hammer’ but says he’s innocent because when he released the hammer the gun fired, but he didn’t ‘pull the trigger’
Just arrest this idiot and throw him in jail so we don’t have to listen to any more of ‘the aliens did it’ from this clown
"Is that someone in the room right now, Alec?"
Just keep talking, Alec. Show the jury (to be selected) just how low you can really go.
Does he not get how bad that remark makes him look?
It’s the old “If she dies, she dies!” sort of quote.
CLASSIC Narcissist / Cluster B personality disorder.
Baldwin is trying to influence public opinion by treating the killing of Halyna Hutchins as a TV show's season story arc.
Each week's episode will further advance the plot twist that Baldwin, who "shot" Hutchins in week 1, is not the "real killer." Each week, a new plot development will be introduced to the viewer. By week 13, the audience will be convinced that Baldwin was in innocent bystander, and that a long sequence of events conspired against him to leave the hero of the show in an externally seen compromising position, but that "what really happened" was what the viewer was NOT seeing that was actually going on.
By week 13, it will become a "Who Shot Halyna?" cliff-hanger season-ending episode. Season 2 will begin with the trial of Alec Baldwin, where the "real killer" will be exposed after another series of episode plot-twists that show how Hutchins was "really" killed, and that it wasn't Baldwin's fault.

So, at a minimum, he pulled back the hammer and released it, while the gun was pointed at a person. Did he not pull the hammer back far enough for it to be half cocked? Or is he just lying? The circumstance of shooting someone can play tricks with memory. And someone, somehow had missed at least one live round in the cylinder.
Who actually pulled the trigger, BaldwinIdiot?!
You did. Nuff’ said.
Everyone that handled the gun up to and including Baldwin was negligent. Baldwin especially so because he cocked and pointed the gun at his victim.
I cannot believe that I agree with George Clooney about anything but he was exactly right. If you hand me a gun the first thing I will do is check to see if it is loaded. If you hand me a gun and tell me it is not loaded the first thing I will do is check to see if it is loaded. If I watch you check the gun to confirm that it is not loaded and you then hand me the gun and tell me it is not loaded then the first thing I will do is check to see if it is loaded.
After I have personally checked and confirmed that it is not loaded I will still handle the gun as if it were loaded because the first rule of handling guns is that every gun is loaded.
This movie, RUST, was to be a western. As a kid, I’ve seen many westerns where shooters fanned the gun. Many characters were shot. No triggers pulled. Hammer release. Gun goes “BANG”. Cinematographer dies. Monkey butt at fault. Goes to jail.
Boy....he sure changed his tune. I guess the prospect of losing $60M of your money will do that...
What a piece of garbage. But we knew that already.
Karma is wonderful. Baldwin is getting paid back for his Trump hate.
I have a single action Colt revolver. Dropping the hammer on a live round is not possible because the cylinder will no be perfectly aligned. Plus my Colt ( model 1851 ) has a half cocked position that locks the gun up. Bottom line is the hammer has to go all the back to turn the cylinder completely into proper position. Then the only way to release the hammer is to pull the trigger. He is BS’ing.
The guy makes a living pretending to be other people in elaborately staged productions. He doesn’t want to go to prison so this will be the performance of his life.
Sorry dude, the responsibility falls with the guy who didn’t check if it was empty, the guy who pointed it at another person, and the guy who went through the process of firing it.

What a surprise coming from a wealthy psychopath.
