Charges against Alec Baldwin have been dropped in the fatal on-set "Rust" shooting, according to sources familiar with the matter. Baldwin, 65, had been charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter after fatally shooting cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, 42, on the New Mexico set of the Western in October 2021.

Sorry, but there is no such thing as a SAFE firearm.
Even prop firearms when perfectly handled do fire wadding, which at close range can be lethal.
I agree that he could not have known there was live round in the chamber, but he still pulled the trigger with the gun pointed at someone.
He was NOT directed to fire the gun, they were NOT filming at the time. The gun did not “Just go off”...
He engaged in negligent behavior, that killed someone. For him to face absolutely no charges at all is disgusting. No I am not saying he should be locked away for life, but to say he did NOTHING wrong is not true.
Totally agree.
Yep!! By his hand!!!
Alec Baldwin, that smarmy, slimy bastard who killed a woman doesn’t have to care about the act being on his conscience. He does not have one....
He sloughs it off as if it was just another day on the set.
Hatable? For Damn sure.
WE HAVE NO JUSTICE SYSTEM.
He didn’t mean to do it, but he is responsible for everything the bullet did after he pulled the trigger.
It was his responsibility to make sure the gun was safe before using it.
I call it criminal negligence.
Could very well make him civilly liable but criminality not so much.
They would rather quit their jobs than prosecute a fellow libtard even if he did he kill someone with a dreaded gun it’s all good cause he’s a libtard loony
From my understanding, his pointing and pulling the trigger wasn't even a part of a scene for the movie, because he shot at the crew.
Highly negligent.
So anyone who shoots someone illegally can claim they were told the gun was not loaded? The Baldwin Defense.
“The anti-constitutional two-tiered justice system strikes again.”
No kidding.
It's about time we start hanging people that are obviously guilty..beyond a shadow of doubt.
Damn good thing I am not King too.........there would be a whole ton of hanging going on.
Rules are for thee...
Maybe write a book or two, and tweet all day is in his future.

Tiers of justice
The Connected

The rest of us
If, G-D forgive another mass shooting occurs Bang Bang Baldwin, like other overpaid mannequins will use his star power and join with the gun grabbing opportunistic ghouls accusing the NRA of having blood on it’s hands
I have always felt this was involuntary manslaughter.
As an executive on this set he has responsibilities.
Some dirt must have been uncovered against the DA..
