Wouldn’t you rather see the report of the condition of the person (Baldwin) who had his finger on the trigger while drawing back the hammer?

Not really. How the live ammo got into the pistol is the most intriguing aspect of the case, to me.

It’s been established how a mechanically sound Colt SAA functions. Let’s find out if the gun in question is mechanically sound.

This, or being a novice, he let the hammer slip free just before it cocked and the pistol fired.

Lot of those old single action guns have been modified for competition shooting. Wonder if this gun was modified? Worn excessively?
