Gutierrez Reed was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to 18 months in jail.

Some people are more equal than others...

[Old Grumpy]

Purely disgusting. He doesn’t deserve a CENT. If there was any justice in this case, he would be paying through the nose, from PRISON.

[kiryandil]

You can’t make this feces up.

[kiryandil]

Halyna Hutchins lost her life when Baldwin pointed a reproduction 1873 single-action revolver at her during a rehearsal was killed by Baldwin due to his negligence and arrogance.

[Vaquero]

A blue state. Meh.

[Gay State Conservative]

Hopefully he’s being sued for millions by the heirs of the dead woman and the guy who was shot but survived.

[redfreedom]

This guy is a class one grade A a$$hole. This self entitled elitist grateful he got by with it and maintained a low profile. But is level of superiority and arrogance won’t let him.

Any run of the mill Joe or Jane in this country that points a loaded weapon at another person, pulls the trigger and kill that other person can and will be convicted of a least manslaughter.

This is a two tier just-us system where us peons get peed on and the entitled get off Scot free.

[llevrok]

Chutzpah!

[BipolarBob]

He pulls the trigger a woman takes the fall and he’s the victim.

[TexasGator]

due to his negligence recklessness and arrogance.

[xxqqzz]

Yeah, he did settle with the family of the woman he killed. Not sure if the suit from the guy he shot who survived has been settled. Part of the settlement agreement was they made the husband of the woman he killed a producer of the movie. They have like 17 producers, including Baldwin.

I don’t think it is easy to sue for malicious prosecution. He certainly has chutzbah.

Not sure if he has appeared in a lot of movies since this.

It is more than negligence and arrogance. He probably was mad at her and fired the gun at her on purpose, thinking it wasn’t loaded.

There was negligence by Baldwin, the young woman armorer, and others that the gun was loaded.

[Third Person]

I think he murdered her, cold-blooded.

[CedarDave]

It is more than negligence and arrogance. He probably was mad at her and fired the gun at her on purpose, thinking it wasn’t loaded.

That is very likely what happened. The first story reported after the shooting by some who were there was that Hutchins was unsatisfied with the performance in the just completed scene and asked for another take. Baldwin got upset, pointed the gun at her saying "take this" and fired. I've never heard that scenario repeated since, but it's the best explanation.

[Repeat Offender]

In a way - for that reason I hope wins…..just to highlight the stupidity.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

He pointed and fired the weapon as a "joke". It was not in the script. It was pure "improv". Hahaha.   /sarc

[metmom]

He’s not going to like his face to face with God very much then.
