First off, not buying it.
Secondly, the firearm was in his hand when it discharged - however that occurred - which makes him legally responsible for anything that happens. This is how it would be handled if it happened to you or me and Baldwin is no different.
Some yes, some no.Quote:

Baldwin should be doing more talking with lawyers instead of news reporters and talk show people.
Oh, but Baldwin is different. He's Hollywood.Quote:

Get out ahead of it.

"If I felt that I was responsible, I might have killed myself"
What a piece of shit

Gofundme for billboards saying "Alec is responsible" around his home.
Who's in?
Read some quotes from his interview and he states he did not pull the trigger but he dropped the hammer and the gun fired.
A plaintiff's attorney might be able to use bits and pieces. Why would a normal guy NOT feel guilt?Quote:

Since the "incident", he has had many people, including lawyers, instruct him on what to say and how to act.
It is not surprising he has no remorse or sense or responsibility.
Already admitted to holding loaded gun that fired and killed her. Admitted he dropped the hammer. So he is responsible for her death.Quote:

How can you know when he's telling the truth?
Alex Baldwin is the poster boy for white supremacy and white privilege.

Of interest... if it is true.
I am trying to figure out if the scribd document is the actual black book, or not, since I thought it was under seal. I can't find any recent confirmation just news references from late November to the exhibit number. Even though I am inclined to believe he would be the type to be in the book, that makes me incredible cautious in verifying facts / before blindly trusting things, as it wouldn't be THAT hard to fabricate something redacted so much (clicks pay $$$$ after all).
I have learned a bit more about single action revolvers. I am obviously not an expert so correct me if I am wrong.
Looking at the various models built by that company, it appears that they have the firing pin on the hammer so I am guessing no transfer bar type safety.
The gun could have gone off as meatball said if the sear or the hammer had been modified, or if the trigger return spring was weak or broken.
I want to know from single action guys if the hammer has enough spring action just before half cock to fire the primer if it were to skip over the quarter cock notch?
That could explain the gun firing.
Obviously, having a live round and pointing it at the camera girl is stupid. I am trying to figure out if the gun could have gone off as he said.
He would have still had to have cocked or was pulling back on the hammer. If it had been done by someone else just the jolt of it being put down would have set it off. This is just what I’ve been reading from others which makes sense.
Dip-shit might not have "pulled the trigger". He could have been holding the trigger back from the get-go before he let go of the hammer.
Unless there's a mechanical failure, it shouldn't have gone off without the trigger being to the rear, unless the hammer is left sitting on a live round and the hammer is struck from behind.

Bad sear/hammer hook angles, damaged components, poorly modified components, excessive wear, inferior quality components etc will cause the hammer to fall.
A competent Armorer would assure correct function and loading.
Bottom line is somebody is holding and pointing that weapon. They are the final one ultimately responsible for for the safe handling of said firearm.
It's that simple
I agree. The blue haired girl did not seem to be competent. I have also read that the gun has been used for 40 years in various movies.Quote:

It is a movie gun so at some point the hammer notches may have filed down, the sear modified or removed or the trigger pinned back to make fanning it easier.
Dipshit said he pulled the hammer back a bit, then more, then more. Then the gun fired. Entirely possible with a modified gun if his thumb slipped off the hammer.
