... “There was nothing in the script about the gun being discharged by DEFENDANT BALDWIN or by any other person,” the lawsuit from script supervisor Mamie Mitchell says. ... Mitchell’s lawsuit focuses mainly on Baldwin’s actions. It said she was standing next to Hutchins and within 4 feet of the actor, and was stunned when he fired the gun inside the tiny church on Bonanza Creek Ranch on Oct. 21. According to discussions before the scene was filmed, it called for three tight shots of Baldwin: One on his eyes, one on a blood stain on his shoulder, and one...

The Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms and the right to bear arms is what has really been on trial in the Kyle Rittemhouse proceedings in Kenosha, Wisconsin. His use of that “giant gun”, as the lib cable media describes his AR-15, to defend himself has been on trial, not the rioting, looting, burning and killing that has occurred in the BLM/Antifa riots that ravaged the nation in 2020’s “mostly peaceful” protests. That he successfully defended himself with that AR-15 against a less than stellar cast of pursuing attempted murderers that were part of a raging mob of...

..................... "Alec Baldwin intentionally, without just cause or excuse, cocked and fired the loaded gun even though the upcoming scene to be filmed did not call for the cocking and firing of a firearm," the lawsuit alleges. According to the lawsuit, script supervisor Mamie Mitchell was standing four feet away when Baldwin fired the Colt .45 revolver and suffered injuries herself.

Remember when actor Alec Baldwin threatened to leave America if George W. Bush was elected president, and then welshed on his promise? Well, Alec is at it again at the quickly becoming blog site for the stars to rant non sequiturs with total impunity Huffington Post. This time, Baldwin set his sights on Vice President Dick Cheney – color me surprised. Baldwin began: “So, I suppose the question is...what kind of civil trial will we see, or not see, between Cheney and Whittington? Whittington is certainly no stranger to a court room and to civil litigation. Will Cheney pay him...

Rust script supervisor Mamie Mitchell, who originally called 911 following the on-set shooting that took the life of the indie Western’s director of photography, is now suing star Alec Baldwin -snip- Mitchell’s new complaint, filed in L.A. Superior Court, says the script didn’t call for any gun to be discharged. “It was discussed that there would be [three] tight camera shots when filming resumed [after a lunch break],” states her complaint. “One camera shot would be focused on DEFENDANT BALDWIN’s eyes, one would be focused on a bloodstain on DEFENDANT BALDWIN’s shoulder, and the third would focus on DEFENDANT BALDWIN’s...

Rust script supervisor Mamie Mitchell, the first person to call 911 after Halyna Hutchins was accidentally shot by Alec Baldwin on the film's set last month, is filing a lawsuit against Alec Baldwin and other producer with high powered lawyer Gloria Allred as her attorney. -snip- 'Alec Baldwin intentionally, without just cause or excuse, cocked and fired the loaded gun even though the upcoming scene to be filmed did not call for the cocking and firing of the firearm,' Allred said. 'Mr. Baldwin chose to play Russian Roulette with a loaded gun without checking it and without having the armorer...

Well we made it to another Caturday.My mood is somewhere between this:and this:“Go ahead, make my day, punk.”…with a definite prejudice towards the racist cat on the bottom. It’s not my fault the insanity continues unabated. So I leave you with this:What under any other circumstance would be a rhetorical question now passes for legitimate cross-examination in show trials.When I look at that supercilious soy-boy prosecutor, Binger, all I see is another politically ambitious hack looking to become a household name in order to advance his career. His ambition vastly outstrips his skill, knowledge or integrity; in other words he’s...

The Santa Fe district attorney investigating the fatal "Rust" shooting has shut down allegations of "sabotage." DA Mary Carmack-Altwies said authorities don't have "any proof" to back up what she called "conspiracy theories." Lawyers for the film's armorer claimed without evidence that someone may have tried to "sabotage" the set by putting a live round in a box of dummy rounds. The Santa Fe district attorney investigating the fatal shooting on the set of Alec Baldwin's latest movie "Rust" has shut down the "sabotage" allegations floated by attorneys for the film's armorer. "I know that some defense attorneys have come...

Almost three weeks after the deadly shooting on the set of “Rust,” a “rough” looking Alec Baldwin has returned to the Big Apple, where he was spotted strolling with his family – before he promoted a new episode of his podcast, “Here’s The Thing.” The 63-year-old actor was photographed Sunday with his wife, Hilaria, 37, as he pushed their child in a stroller in Greenwich Village, where they visited a nail salon and grabbed dinner at Il Cantinori, an Italian eatery on East 10th Street.

It’s still early but these two stories will certainly be contenders for this week’s most ludicrous headlines: 1. Alec Baldwin calls for police officers on movie sets to supervise gun safety.Yeah Mr. Alec-de-fund-the-Police-Baldwin, that’s the trick: let’s put all you movie types under constant adult supervision so nobody need be responsible for anything, ever. “It Wasn’t My Fault!”That pretty much sums up the left’s vision for America, where “gentle giants” are never responsible for their crimes but the police hired to protect us from criminals always are.The get out of jail free card: what’s in your wallet?2. US-Mexico Border Reopens...

Alec Baldwin's wife, Hilaria, is getting trashed after sharing a montage of the couple's happy kids frolicking around the Vermont mansion her family has been staying in since the 63-year-old actor accidentally fatally shot his colleague last month. Sharing a video of several of her children enjoying the fall season at their temporary abode, the 37-year-old Boston-born yoga instructor captioned the post – which was set to some upbeat music – "Checking in and sharing a few moments. Being together. I know you worry. We love you and miss you." Her tone was strikingly different from what it was a...

Ireland Baldwin responded to the mass casualty incident that occurred at Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival in Houston on Friday. In three posts that the 26-year-old model shared to her Instagram Story on Saturday, Baldwin said that the tragedy was 'not Travis Scott's fault' but added, 'he incites the rage.' The Grudge Match star later deleted the posts, explaining, 'people on the internet are so scary and so misinformed.' Eight people, including a 14-year-old and a 16-year-old, died after a deadly crowd surge at the festival, which also left many others injured. In Baldwin's first post, she wrote: 'Y'all are really...

A production worker on Alec Baldwin’s tragedy-marred flick “Rust” was bitten by a poisonous spider while helping to close down the set after its fatal accidental shooting — and may now lose his arm. Lamp operator and pipe rigger Jason Miller was bitten by a venomous brown recluse while helping wrap up film production after Baldwin shot and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on Oct. 21, Sky News said. A JustGiving fundraising page said Miller has experienced necrosis of his arm and sepsis as a result of the bite. “He has been hospitalized and endured multiple surgeries each day as doctors...

It looks like Alec Baldwin will be living in Vermont for the foreseeable future. Baldwin, who surfaced in Manchester, Vermont, late last month after accidentally fatally shooting a cinematographer and injuring his director with a prop gun on his Western “Rust” in New Mexico, has been spotted house-hunting in the area, Dirt reported. One of the Manchester homes the actor toured is a 14,000-square-foot, nine-bedroom property on 13.5 acres with a dozen bathrooms, and goes for just $3.6 million, according to Dirt.

Blank ammunition has a distinctive look: a crimped or wadded tip instead of a bullet. But dummy rounds are supposed to be stand-ins for real bullets, inert but identical or nearly identical. "You know, it's the most concerning thing to me when I'm on set because they are intentionally made to look identical to a live round," Bryan Carpenter, a longtime armorer whose recent work includes USA Network’s "Queen of the South," told Fox News Digital. Depending on the manufacturing process, some have a hole in the casing. High-end dummies don’t, according to Carpenter. Santa Fe deputies said they recovered...

A weapons safety expert and industry armorer pushed back on the notion from Hannah Gutierrez-Reed’s lawyers that “sabotage” may have been to blame for how live ammunition found its way into the gun that killed Halyna Hutchins on the set of “Rust” last month. The sabotage claim, as floated by the lawyers for “Rust” armorer Gutierrez-Reed on “Today” Wednesday, is speculation and has not been substantiated with any evidence by the lawyers or authorities. And Steve Wolf, who has 30 years of experience as a movie armorer, told “TheWrap-Up Podcast,” that “speculation” is a “kind word” for how to describe...

Alec Baldwin did not do himself any favors on Tuesday when he shared an angry post from a crewmember from the set of the film “Rust,” where he fatally shot and killed a cinematographer in an incident that is still being investigated by police — and scrutinized by the public. In seven Instagram posts, the actor shared a lengthy tirade from Terese Magpale Davis, who worked in the film’s wardrobe department. (Apparently the 63-year-old Baldwin doesn’t know how to select multiple images for one post, which Instagram users can easily do.) “Read this,” he captioned the first post, which included...

Alec Baldwin took the unusual step for a public figure of protecting his Twitter account Tuesday amid growing criticism over his and his wife’s use of social media to comment on the fallout of the actor’s fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Baldwin’s Hilaria and Alec Baldwin Foundation account showed Tuesday that its tweets were now protected, potentially meaning that he and his wife can view and control who sees his tweets. Baldwin apparently changed the privacy setting around the same time he used his Instagram account Tuesday to hit back at reports that allege there were a number of...

SANTA FE, N.M. — “What the f--- just happened?” Alec Baldwin repeated the words again and again with growing urgency as the sound of the shot reverberated throughout the wooden church. Mere seconds before, the actor had been preparing to film a scene in which he, as a grizzled 1880s Kansas outlaw, becomes involved in a shootout in a church. He was just going through the motions, giving the camera crew a chance to line up their angles. “So,” he had said, placing his hand on the Colt .45 revolver in its holster, “I guess I’m gonna take this out,...

<p>Baldwin’s father, Alexander Rae Baldwin, Jr., who died at the age of 55 in 1983, “was an expert marksman in riflery” who was honorably discharged from the U.S. Marine Corps “for medical reasons after being shot, accidentally, during rifle instruction on Parris Island,” Baldwin wrote in a Father’s Day tribute for the Huffington Post in 2009.</p>
