The guy should pay for what he deserves.

Because he hired an inexperienced gun safety, 'expert.' Hey, you get what you pay for.

In other news Bobo says he raised a knife and plunged it into a person. He didn't know the blade was sharp. Says stabbing occurred after knife penetrated the flesh of victim.

Lock him up.

He said he pulled the HAMMER back and let go there was a live round in the chamber! I have a BLR 308 The time you take your hammer to let it off the cocked Loaded is a scary time you need to be careful with. I've live shot one by accident!

In my personal opinion, Alec Baldwin is responsible for the injuries and death on the set of 'Rust'. The media is helping him mitigate the fallout.

Or a hitman watching, paid by a lover, or contract owner, or actor competing for role, shot when he saw the gun cock, from a similar angle. FMJ bullets depending on the grain, or even modified bullets, can look like they were shot up close in a normal gun. It's highly possible.

Trigger

Need autopsy results..

🤡

Isn’t it unwise to talk about a case still under investigation? Trying to muddy the waters?

Why where you pointing the gun at her and pulling the trigger? Safty first for a reason, ignorance is not gonna excuse to from manslaughter.

It was suicide!!!

Don’t let the fact that Baldwin shot the director & DP distract you from the fact that he also was a producer and accountable for what happened on set.

Well, he is going with the Democratic gun narrative. Guns kill people not the person using them. Bad bad guns. The gun just decided to shoot people. Just like some SUV’s like to run people over.

Attorney for 'Rust' assistant director says Alec Baldwin 'did not pull that trigger'EXCLUSIVE: An attorney for 'Rust' assistant director Dave Halls says she was told by her client that actor Alec Baldwin did not pull the trigger on the prop gun that discharged on the film's set, killing one crew member and injuring another. I've heard about these 'ghost guns' before. Basic rule of gun safety: Treat every gun as if it’s loaded. If he’d taken an NRA basic gun safety class, instead of bashing them; no one would have died. It was clearly not a 'prop gun' inasmuch as it was capable of firing live rounds.
