A camera operator told authorities that Alec Baldwin had been careful with weapons on a movie set before the fatal shooting of a cinematographer, court records show. Cameraman Reid Russell said Baldwin was rehearsing a scene when the shooting occurred.

The affidavit released Sunday also includes statements by director Joel Souza, who was standing behind Hutchins and was wounded.

On Sunday, a crew member who worked with Halls on another project said she had raised safety concerns about him in 2019. The film’s chief electrician Serge Svetnoy blamed producers for Hutchins’ death in an emotional Facebook post on Sunday. Svetnoy said he had worked with Hutchins on multiple films and faulted “negligence and unprofessionalism” among those handling weapons on the set. He said producers hired an inexperienced armorer.

Whoever loaded the blanks was at fault

But why did one of the guns had live ammunition?

The first rule to handle the gun, never point a gun at anyone. Alec Baldwin is experienced enough, to know better. He could of checked the gun before practicing or toying with it. How much practice did Alex need it? Most 3 year olds could shoot a gun without any practice.

From a gun safety course I took in 1980. Instructor: 'What should you do if someone hands you a gun saying that there's nothing in it?' Correct answer: Check it yourself.

The more I read about this tragedy the more I suspect it was not an accident. Unknown hands had a malicious hand in the shooting.

Lots of hate for Alec from the MAGA crowd.. I wonder why

Careful enough to murder someone

Does careful include not examining the weapon prior to going live with it? Not saying it’s not an accident, but treat every weapon as live until you are certain it’s safe.

Not surprised to see all the lefties coming to the defense of Baldwin.

I don't know.. If someone handed me a gun and said it was safe and I shot and killed someone.. I would be going to jail

Be honest how big of a check did Alec Baldwin have to pay y'all?
