Alec Baldwin calls movie shooting death 'one in a trillion episode'

Actor Alec Baldwin gestures before walking on the red carpet during the commemoration of the Elton John AIDS Foundation 25th year fall gala at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City, in New York, U.S. November 7, 2017. REUTERS/Shannon Stapleton/File PhotoLOS ANGELES, Oct 30 - Alec Baldwin on Saturday described the fatal shooting on the set of his movie as a "one in a trillion episode" and said he support limits on the use of real guns in films and television shows.

"I'm not allowed to make any comments because it's an ongoing investigation," the actor told reporters in an impromptu roadside conversation with photographers and camera crews who had located him in a small town in Vermont. Hutchins, 42, was killed and Joel Souza, the director of the indie Western movie "Rust", was wounded when Baldwin fired a gun loaded with a real bullet during a rehearsal on the set on Oct. 21. Baldwin had been told the gun was safe.

"I do know that an ongoing effort to limit the use of firearms on film sets is something I'm extremely interested in," Baldwin said. "Some new measures have to be taken."

Nice try.

Alec Baldwin is ultimately responsible for her death.

Me 👀too

There shouldn't have been live ammunition on set. At least two people should have checked the gun was actually 'cold'. Baldwin shouldn't have pointed the gun at a human being.

I think its disgusting that people with money💰 in america 🇺🇸...get to getaway with negligent homicide☠... truly ourcriminal justice system needs reform...im glad my soul 😇is not for sale

Real, fully operational weapon in hand, points at live human and pulls trigger without first inspecting weapon (you didn't load) for safety. Kills 1 injures another. Guns fault, Alec faces no charges.

So improbable that it happened multiple times on this set…

Negligent murder

Why was a live bullet in a prop gun... that made the odd high.

“Assumption is the mother of all fuckups.”

one in a trillion episode? that was what it was i don't think so, poor choice of words probably or even worst than that

nntaleb

two in a trillion episode 👀

Alec Baldwin speaks out about Halyna Hutchins and guns on setsAlec Baldwin told the paparazzi he is not allowed to talk about the details of the shooting that occurred on the set of his latest film, 'Rust,' but he had some things to say about the woman who died, cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. I'm a big fan of some of his movies and I can imagine how something like that can throw your world into a different place. What is a anti-2A nut doing making a film that glorifies the use of guns? BTW, what are a bunch of anti-2A leftists shooting target practice between scenes? Don't they believe guns are bad and there is no reason for anyone to own one? hypocrits To save a click- He can't say anything because it's under investigation now.
