Prosecutors await forensics in Alec Baldwin shooting

The Albuquerque Journal ^ | August 4, 2022 | Andres Leighton/AP

The shooting occurred Oct. 21, 2021 and the DA still hasn't received analysis and data from federal and state officials? Talk about the wheels of justice turning slowly, in New Mexico, they're glacial!

[nickcarraway]

Shouldn’t it have been done by now?

[Antihero101607]

Batting a thousand there, guys!

[Vaquero]

What forensics? Smart Alec pulls trigger is SAA. 1 dead 1 injured.

[ClearCase_guy]

I think the forensics will show that 1) Someone died and 2) There is no way to tell who did it.

[Bonemaker]

Complete farce.

[Col Frank Slade]

The weapon was sent to the FBI forensics crime lab for analysis.

I guess nobody thought to ask Wray about this yesterday?

LOL

[Sarah Barracuda]

Baldwin is a Dem and as we all know Dems can do whatever they want and get away with it

[Dilbert San Diego]

I don’t get it either. Are the forensics to somehow prove that Alec pulled the trigger? I thought he said at one time, that he didn’t actually pull the trigger, but the gun went off by accident?

Is this a white wash? Is there a reluctance to indict a high profile celebrity? Or are they really making sure they have all their ducks in a row, before proceeding with any legal action, as any legal action will attract major media attention???

I suppose answers will be revealed at some point.

One oddity about the myths of American “justice” is the unchallenged cliche that people have a right to a speedy trial.

Actually, the perps use every trick in the defense attorneys’ book to slow down the pace to a crawl. Free until a guilty verdict (and several appeals later) so slow it all down.

[Seruzawa]

Soros’ lackeys are doing everything they can to get Barrwin off.

no inquiry as to HOW live rounds magically appeared?

who loaded the gun?

i’m pretty sure what gun did it and how...

[dfwgator]

So when is Jussie going to serve his jail sentence? (That’s a rhetorical question)

Nothing is going to happen to Alec Baldwin.

Findings in order:

1). He’s Innocent

2). Funnel and Interpret everything to support #1

In a desperate move to speed things up, the PD appointed John Durham to the case, and his office has promised a bombshell report any day now.

[Robert DeLong]

What forensics could he be waiting for? This happened quite a while ago, and forensic results have not been as slow as this since the early 1990s.

[gloryblaze]

Both sides scared of the lawyers on the other side.

[Little Ray]

I wanna know if they pulled any fingerprints (other than those of Hannah Gutierrez Reed) off the spent casing.

[Yo-Yo]

What forensics? Smart Alec pulls trigger is SAA. 1 dead 1 injured.

I'd like to know whose fingerprints are on the loaded cartridges.

Condemn Baldwin all you want, and trust me he deserves it, but it is not up to the actor to confirm the prop he was handed isn't loaded with live ammunition.
