The production company probably has some insurance. Perhaps that’s why they immediately called it an “accident”. I don’t know all that much about insurance but I imagine in some cases negligence or malice invalidates the coverage.
there has been lots of obfuscation
the whole Prop gun thing, Prop means property or studio property, it does not mean that something is not real, but certainly it can be.
the whole Cold gun thing, from my understanding Cold means that there are no rounds in the gun at all no blanks, nothing.
I am blaming the AD and Baldwin. Both knew that the chick did not have the balls to override their bad direction.
I blame the Chick too because she should have walked with the rest of the union staff (unless more evidence comes out)
Someone brought live ammo for the Property Dept Gun to the set, they have some liability, especially since the ammo for this is not common, you did not accidentally have a box in your pickup.
All three knew or should have known it was their job and duty to check the firearm before the script called for being stupid.
