#AlecBaldwin #Shooting #Rust
He POINTED the gun TOWARDS her!! He, himself PULLED the trigger! Not his grandma
😂 I didn't pulled the trigger , no , no , no 😂
Who pulled the trigger, Alec? Was that you?
😅
@@bahaar2825No it pulled itself! Right!!!
Who loaded the gun?
Who introduced the live rounds to the set?
@@4catsnow the gun was supposed to have blanks. Im sure if he knew there was live ammo in the gun. He wouldn't have been so willy nilly with it.
Alec B needs to do time!!.. he’s not above the law his status means absolutely nothing to regular joes!.. you pointed a loaded gun at someone and pulled the trigger!.. ANYBODY THAT LOVES AND IWNS GUNS KNOWS YOU NEVEE EVEE EVER POINT A GUN AT A PERSON EVER UNLESS ITS GO TIME!! The sad fact is the girl went to jail did Alex even stick up for her??? Did he even tell the judge hey she’s a cool chick why is she going to jail???? He needs to go to jail so he can snap out of fantasy land for a minute just like her.
It wasn't premeditated (first-degree) nor done with malice without premeditation (second-degree). It may fall under third-degree (recklessness or inattention). However, in a situation where the individual pulling the trigger is an actor on a film set and has no idea whether the gun they're firing is loaded (unless they take the time to check), the responsibility typically falls to the armorer. 'Rust' armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced. The ruling was just and accurate.
@@kxmode wrong. he still has a duty to handle the firearm safely regardless of whether he knows it has live rounds or not. Actors are instructed to treat all real guns as if they are loaded. Same safety rules apply whether on film set or not. That's why actors receive firearm safety training. He violated basic safety protocol and handled the weapon recklessly. That's why he's charged with involuntary manslaughter.
Baldwin needs to be put in the New Mexico State Penitentiary for life!!
I wish he wasn't using that argument. It seems implausible, thereby making it easier to doubt him. He didn't know there were live bullets in the gun. As such, the person responsible for the young lady's death has already been convicted.
He couldn't play Trump on SNL. That's why he wants this to go away.
Hannah Reed was convicted in March of involuntary manslaughter, after a jury found that her negligence caused the death of Halyna Hutchins. Judge Marry Sommer said Reed had not shown any remorse. Judge also said to Reed “ You alone turned a safe weapon into a lethal weapon. And is spending 18 months in prison she should get more prison time. The victim was transported to UNM, Albuquerque. By car it would have been 45 miles but helicopter faster.
No one is above the law 🤣🤣
Lock him up!!!
But he's an actor...
🤣😂👍😂🤣
This is a load of BS anyone of us Peasants would have been cuffed, stuffed and already gone to trial and in prison by now...he is at a minimum guilty of negligent homicide and when found to be regardless of how much $$$ these worthless POS they have!! I'm sick of the 2 tiered crap justice system in this country!!
send that fool to jail
this dude ain't sorry he just wants people to get over it because he is.
Exactly! He was over it after he hung up the phone in that picture. He's just like: oh well, shyt happens, people die, whatever
He mocked Trump, soooo…🤣
except Trump’s is all a scam by BiDEMwits & smartALEC’s is not!😆
Couldn’t have said it better.
What is wrong with you?
@@Fhorar just speaking facts. Alec Baldwin was producer on set, killed his cinematographer point blank with a gun, and still doesn't think he's liable. Aint nothing wrong with us, but Alec Baldwin on the other hand.....
Nobody is above the law... prosecute to the fullest extent of the law like you would the general population.
Or as he would if it were a manufactured charge against Trump.
No one is above the law except for democrats
@@williamschlosser77Oh look another Trumpanzee.
34 FELONIES
@@williamschlosser77I can't agree with that. The refusal by the courts to abide by due process rules in Trump's cases shouldn't be allowed.
Alec can do his skits in prison.
😅
😢😂
😂😂
The gun didn't "just go off", guns don't pull their own triggers.
Some guns have malfunctioning firing mechanisms, the sig 320 had a bad time because of it. That said, even a weapon malfunction through no fault of your own can land you in prison.
I’m surprised Baldwin didn’t release his crap movie anyway.
@@sporkmaster12that’s incorrect.
Try hopping on the Sig forum to learn something.
USER ERROR…every time.
Every time.
“Initial production models of the P320 were found to have a "drop safety" issue if the firearm was dropped at a specific angle, potentially causing it to discharge. SIG Sauer has since refitted the P320 to make it drop-safe and offers a voluntary upgrade program for early P320s.“
The Sig boys would never admit their firearms are trash. They are the rich man’s hi-point.
Based on his interviews and the gun model itself, Baldwin was holding the trigger when he cocked the hammer. Since the trigger was depressed, the hammer released immediately upon Baldwin letting go of it.
I have been an arms instructor for more than 40 years. If I had a dollar for every time I was told My finger was not on the trigger, or that the gun is unloaded, I would be very wealthy. As for the gun being broken, that is not correct, the hammer was broken, and repaired, big difference, You would not find, I think any single action shooters that would not find him guilty.
Why isn't Alec Baldwin in jail yet?
Because he's a Democrat celebrity and makes fun of President Trump. 2 tier justice system.
Because Democrats don't understand how guns work so nobody knows he committed intentional murder.
Great question
Best comment, thank you.@@AreYouNotEntertained420
It looks like he had a reasonable expectation that the gun was safe...It also looks like the right person IS in jail..
Baldwin is responsible for all of this. His production company hired the armorer and he pulled the trigger. There are protocols for a reason and he ignored them.
A woman dies because of his negligence. He should go to jail.
What did he do wrong. He is an actor, not a gun specialist. He was handed a gun by the on set gun expert, as are all actors thousands of times a year.
No. In his mind, that women get killed because of Trump. Lock him up!
How many actors check the prop gun before shooting a scene. ZERO
@@kennysilvers-z4xWhy was he aiming and firing towards people that weren't part of the scene they were filming?
He should have checked the gun but the props manager is ultimately to blame. I don't think he should be charged.
Put the psycho in jail already. I doubt it was an accident with his temperament. Just ask his daughter who had to put a restraining order against him.
Look who's crying because he made fun of your God Trump.....😂
He was the last one to hold the gun and aim. He should have double checked if it was live ammo as the last person in the row. If the armorer got arrested then every who handled the gun on the way to filming should get arrested as well.
The armorer did not hand the weapon to Baldwin because Baldwin had banned her from the church during the rehearsal. Baldwin accepted the firearm from an Assistant Director who pled guilty to mishandling a dangerous device and is currently on probation.
So far, Alec Baldwin is the only one involved with this incident who has not suffered consequences from the legal system.
HE SHOT AND KILLED SOMEONE ,, GUILTY THAT GUN DID NOT FIRE BY ITSELF,,
Rittenhouse did much worse and is considered a hero
@@kennysilvers-z4x That has no bearing on this case. What kind of logic is that?
@@kennysilvers-z4xrittenhouse acted in self defense as he was attacked and was acquitted of all charges by a jury of 12.
Baldwin recklessly killed a woman and shot a man who were filming him, not attacking him. Come up with a better comparison.
it was an accident
@@freshbanana365it was reckless and negligent not to mention intentional. He took a firearm, aimed it and fired it. You try and argue his argument and see how long it takes for them to stick a needle in your arm.
He was probably on cocaine
He should get jail time. He is trash.
Most definitely
If you can’t do the time in jail don’t do the crime Mr.alec.
always be careful with your firearms, the entire crew were not careful in this case, and a woman lost her life
i can't say where the blame goes, but guns are NOT EVER PROPS OR TOYS
lack of disciple lead to this
The blame goes on Alec Baldwin.
Alec Baldwin is one of the most despicable persons walking on earth. This guy should get jail time. What happened to the guy who mocked and impersonated Donald Trump disrespectfully? KARMA is real, folks!
Baldwin has no remorse
I don't think that was a Tom Clancy reference, but . . . . Alec _is_ a Clear and Present Danger.
Hey, Alec, do your Donald Trump impersonation.
Lol
I wonder if he is going to ask Biden for a pardon.
This Mr Donald Trump 😂😂 😮
😂
Ruthlessly mocked Trump. Look at him now. Bye bye Alec. You're not funny and your acting stinks
Alec can share a cell with Hunter.
I smell jail time Baldwin!! 😂
Take responsibility Baldwin!
How many actors check the prop gun before shooting a scene? NONE
@@kennysilvers-z4xIs this you Alec? Trolling the comments
@@kennysilvers-z4x Pretty much all of them check the prop gun for themselves. It's why this is a very rare accident. In NYC, prop guns have to be checked by every person who will come in contact with the gun.
@@LunaLapin-ho5tk And what type of certificates do they have in order to evaluate said gun?
What type of certificate did you need to get to cope so hard?
Guns do not load themselves, guns do not aim themselves, guns do not squeeze their own triggers. He is guilty and belongs in prison.
He squeeze the trigger 😮
do you think the judge did that because he murdered that woman?
Take his money its all h e cares bout
It's the only thing he understands, money.
He was having an affair with her, and she was about to go public and tell his wife. He made sure she wouldn't.
She said Hey Alex you're not firing blanks!! Alex just thought he got another girl pregnant
He should be locked up for a great deal of time.
Only reason he hasn't already been thrown in jail with the key tossed away is because he's famous.
Yeah just like Trump
@@BugzKiller That's odd remind me who he shot and killed?
@@Inufan2005 Will trump didn't do that yet but with everything else he did criminally that probably would have came sometime
Not mention this case literally drips reasonable doubt...Did he think the gun was safe??
@@4catsnow
yes, but he committed a personal slight to all of the ones calling for his head: he insulted their messiah...
How many times has he been denied? Put him in jail already! The girl on the movie set us already in jail. Just because he has $ he doesn't get a get out of jail free card. This is mot Monopoly!!!!
Money just delays trials in the US. He is trying to stay out until after the election so Biden can pardon him without political backlash.
Alec pulled the trigger!!! He is a grown man, mature, he needed to check the gun! WHY he pointed the gun towards her?!?? 🧐
Point 👉 point 👉 😮
Not his job to check the gun..
It is UNBELIEVABLE that they would take a mallet to a gun and risk a criminal case.
Kind of interesting they would make such a basic mistake.
I'm pretty sure it's a standard test whenever there's a claimed discharge without the trigger being pulled. The idea is to hit and jar the hammer to see if it will unseat and fire once cocked (or half-cocked). It's more unbelievable that Baldwin's attorney thinks that should get the case dismissed. Even if the gun magically fired itself, Baldwin still pointed an incredibly dangerous weapon directly at another human being. The absolute basics of gun safety means he should have been treated that gun as if it were loaded, which indeed it was in this case.
Guilty.
ALEC NEEDS To Be LOCKED Up
horrible accident that cost lives period.
This was no accident. It was negligence at best and could have been prevented.
BS. Firearms safety is NO accident. Anyone who thinks a negligent firearms death is just an "accident" has no business owning, (or even handling), a firearm, and this means you.
Even if the prop master Claritin the actor is also responsible to clear it
Not an accident.
He hired the cheapest armer he could find {to cheap} and he did pull the trigger when he said he didn't......... liar
Cheapest 😂
She was a DEI hire
The first words that came from his mouth was It's not my fault. Hes a punk. Never a thought for one minute about the woman he killed
Yet another sacrifice, eh Aleechh?
Wow... Really stupid coverage.
He had motifs and many witnesses all say he was violent and verbally abusive. The only live ammo found was on his belt.
He is a murderer. Regardless of severity.
The gun just went off.... after it got hit by a mallet a bunch of times.! So no it didn't just go off. This prosecutor is not going to make him to deal where Alec doesn't go to jail,this is going to trial, Alec will lose.
He shouldn't have been hitting that revolver with that mallet as it was pointed in the direction of that woman.
Pulled the trigger? How about, why was he pointing at someone at that moment? With the single action revolver, cocked. (before he pulled the trigger)
And it sounds to me like the FBI proved it was a negligent discharge, not a malicious firearm.
I have never seen or herd of a revolver fire itself
I think what happened is he doesn’t know revolvers. Guns in general. I think the hammer was pulled back and the trigger didn’t need much to go just touching hard enough set it off.
Impossible...but have you ever seen Baldwin load live rounds in that gun?? In that case,, how did the live rounds get loaded in the gun?
I have.... in cartoons.
@@4catsnowEither Balwin did it, which the facts do make that plausible, or it was mixed with the blanks somehow.
FYI. Those facts that make it plausible that Balwin did it are the following.
Balwin banned the Armorer from the set that day.
Balwin had been in multiple heated arguments with the victim for weeks.
Balwin didn't render aid or even acknowledge the incident when it occurred.
Balwin was the last person to handle the firearm.
All of these make it plausible Balwin could have put in the live round, himself. Good luck trying to get a conviction that it was intentional, though. No witness is going to come out and say they saw him do that.
Being Baldwin DOWN!!!!
Alec's legal team can file a motion to dismiss on the ground of insanity. He would do whatever it takes to avoid prison. Mental asylum seems like a good option.
If Alec isn't lying about not pulling the trigger, this could be the first reported case of a gun killing someone on its own. Incredible.
This is messed up. So many questions.
"I don't know who's responsible but it isn't me."
If you put a gun in your hand, you are responsible for making sure it's safe. You never trust anyone prior. Simple as that. There is nothing to discuss. Guilty!
he killed a woman he pointed a gun at her and shot it.... alec should have asked the armor checked the gum himself ...I can't trust anyone in this world especially when you're holding a loaded gun in your hand.. he's responsible maybe he'll do some time in jail who knows❤ might be good for him to reflect repent and go back to God who is Jesus❤
Everyone saying negligence and accident...He put a live round in the gun and murdered that lady. And looks like he's gonna get away with it.
I just wonder why there's real bullet and who loaded the gun with real bullets?
I don't care why the gun went off. If it wasn't pointed at someone, no one would have been shot.
Should not brought his personal gun on sight to use
it wasn't his personal gun .. It was for use in the movie..Movies often use these reproduction firearms as they look and function exactly like the Original in this case it looks just like a Colt from that time period.. They are also usually cheaper than replicas and will look and sound more realistic firing blanks ..
you're dumb lol
Baldwin has rust on the brain, and not a lot of rust.
Baldwin needs to take the 'negligent use of a firearm' misdemeanor plea deal just like the 1st AD did. Other than that, he's going to wind up in a New Mexico jail for a year and 1/2. Be smart Alec, get out of your own way.....
sad so many people don't understand the most Basic Firearm ever made.... Trigger Must be pulled for it to go off. Period ...... There is no IF, And or Buts.
If he goes to jail....this opens a can of worms.....he was not negligent because he is acting.... it's the stunt coordinator fault....
Alec the murderer was a major mocker of Trump. Look at him now. Bye bye Alec.
Not that my opinion matters and I'm not an Alex Baldwin fan but this was not a criminal action. There was never any intent. I believe as the producer, he is responsible for civil liability but not criminal. This was a safety issue. Boeings CEO is crashing planes all over the world and he got a raise.
NOT OVER YET BALDWIN, REMEMBER YOU DID PULL THE TRIGGER...
Not only did Baldwins reckless handling of a firearm result in one death and another serious injury but he’s refusing to take any responsibility whatsoever
Karma is a byatch! TH-cam hates the true spelling.
So let’s all be illiterate and not hurt peoples feelings even when they’re true
Actors are not responsible for checking guns before each use. Instead, the responsibility is given to qualified professionals, such as prop masters or weapons handlers, who are trained in safety and oversee the use and handling of firearms. Actors are not expected to be experts on guns or experienced in their use. Everyone do your research and have common sense before hating someone
He SHOULDN'T be brought up on charges anyway!
why? he fired the gun that killed her
I don't see how this situation is "HIS RESPONSIBILITY", the firearm expert is responsible, THEY cleared the weapon for use on set.
but he pointed it a crew member and pulled the trigger.
You're telling me the government doesn't have the resources to make an identical firearm and test that instead of using the actual firearm. I understand why they did it but they should have created an exact replica and tested first on that.
Who s the judge presiding?
What a joke.that man wasn't responsible .that person who loaded the gun is to blame.😮
so the person who loaded it put a live round in the gun? for what reason
How can you prosecute an actor who is given a prop gun which was supposed to have a fake bullet but had a live round? How was he to know?
Involuntary Manslaughter thats the charge here
We have to remember someone lost life unlucky way someone must be in charge.
Why is this man being charged? He was on a movie set, wirh what was SUPPOSED to be SAFE guns loaded with blanks. Why are they holding him responsible? I dont get it.
because he shot the gun that killed her maybe?
He owns the production company that was putting this movie together... It would be one thing if he was just an actor. But he was also the boss... He did the hiring, and he was responsible for the safety of the set...
@@Bauks
so if a trucker kills someone in an accident, they can go after the owner of the trucking company?
same logic
@@hairywhodini3429 They may infact go after the trucking company....
@@hairywhodini3429 if we are talking about trucks that would be like he's an independent owner-operator ...he would take on all the liability....
20th Anniversary of:

😆
Hollywood distraction from joes awesome debate performance 😂
Armorer, Props manager didn't do the job right. Case closed.
Alec you shot them just take responsibility.😮
Cmon now just charge him a $250 fine and be done with holding him accountable already
Bad week for the democrat cult..but,hilarious to watch
Look back on the video made of Baldwin re enacting that moment....he pulled the trigger, and then said oh, i never pulled the trigger, tho.
BS. He automatically pulled it. HE DID NOT FOCUS IN THAT FINAL SECOND.
Alec was in charge of it all AND pulled the Trigger.👎
Maybe he can do his Trump impression behind bars? Good times!
The victim was working on exposing a child SA ring ~not unlike Anne Heche if i'm not mistaken. hmmmm
You did it Alec , you pulled the trigger , what’s wrong Alec ,can’t buy your way out of this,
"The gun just went off!" (With real bullets in it!)
Alec absolved himself of any responsibility in this matter 5 minutes after it happened.
Why are movie guns made to accept real bullets, this is just so foreseeable.
Sorry for his wife and Children and Hilanas Son. Very sad tragedy. Alex is older now, I'm sure there's tremendous stress.
HOPE ❤️, Salvation is found in no one else, no other name under heaven given among men where by we must be saved. Saved from the punishment of sin. I’m trying to offer people Hope in absolute perfection !!! No more pain, dying, lies, decay, depression, anxiety, crying, sickness, rotten food, broken things , etc... offering the Hope of Eternity in heaven with Jesus Christ.

It shouldn't take this long he should be already in prison
He’s so unpleasant lately had he shown some
Sort of remorse maybe ppl wouldn’t be rooting against him
