BREAKING: Prosecutors announced that actor Alec Baldwin will be charged with involuntary manslaughter in the shooting of a cinematographer who was killed during a rehearsal of the movie “Rust.”

that was handed to him on the set. Baldwin, also a co-producer on “Rust,” said he was told the gun was safe.

New Mexico’s Office of the Medical Investigator determined the shooting was an accident following the completion of an autopsy and a review of law enforcement reports. The armorer who oversaw firearms on the set, Gutierrez Reed, has been the subject of much of the scrutiny in the case, along with an independent ammunition supplier. An attorney for Gutierrez Reed has said she did not put a live round in the gun that killed Hutchins, and she believes she was the victim of sabotage. Authorities said they have found no evidence of that.

State workplace safety regulators said that immediate gun-safety concerns were addressed when “Rust” ceased filming, and that a return to filming in New Mexico would be accompanied by new safety inspections.

Celebrations in Trump Towers

ridiculous

What? Why? It's not his fault

That’s so stupid. Obviously a publicity stunt. Hopefully the jury will do their jobs

Shame

blanks are for closers

I do wonder how many of us in the same exact situation would have also ended in tragedy? I suspect a lot of us.

Hopefully they are seeking the death penalty

A life was lost. It is everyone's responsibility to ensure the safety of participants. If everyone did their job correctly, not a life would be lost.

ProsecutorsPod would love to hear your thoughts on this!

Wouldn't it technically be womenslaughter?

👀

Perhaps this is an opportunity for the film industry to take real steps to address their role in gun culture. For example we could replace realistic guns with alternatives like fictional laser guns or something

Thats bullshit

Alec Baldwin all done.

What a justice system you have if Baldwin ends up convicted while Rittenhouse is a GOP hero.

Couldn't happen to a worse human being. Karma is an awesome thing.

And do what? Go on house arrest? Must be horrible

Alec Baldwin is being charged because he is the 'Producer' NOT as an actor. He carries the responsibility of 'making sure' all safety measures are carried out, which wasn't. The Armorer 'DID NOT' carry out 'safety' measures.

Insanity. What a disrespectful waste of everyone’s time.

Good. Karma

Damn guns!

In other news: “All Productions In Progress Or Planned For The Future In NM Move To Other States.”

And Kyle Rittenhouse walks free as a bird!

I'm not saying what happened is ok; just looking at the Kyle Rittenhouse case where he was found not guilty.

This is about to be embarrassing for them. Considering they could not show intent they likely won't get this charge either.

So actor is handed a prop gun w live ammunition and it’s his fault…this is a set up clearly.

People can be indicted/charged with all kinds of things and if they're affluent they tend to get a slap on the wrist, others jail. Bottom line, are they going to jail or what and then as a precedent can it then happen to those wealthy/influential who were involved with 1/6 too?

Remember the Safety Manager was a Diversity Hire ?

A movie set is in fact real life beleive it or not. Check the damn gun yourself before you go pointing it at someone. Not a new rule folks.

If Trump had pulled the trigger, do you think he would have been charged?

so what's the point of having an armorer on set? if the actors will be held accountable then shouldn't they be loading things themselves if they're responsible?

'Alec? Hi, it's John Landis. Now listen carefully, here's what ya gotta do . . .'

Hope the gun master gets even more serious charges

But, Kyle Rittenhouse can bear absolutely no responsibility for murdering two people...

The charges are justified.

Took them this long?

Alec deserves most of the blame for not following weapon safety rules but I really want to know who loaded the weapon with real rounds…

HAHA!
