I feel that Baldwin should be charged with negligence resulting in the death of one person and the injury of another person. He has been in enough movies where he handled firearms to know what safe practices are. He accepted a loaded firearm from a person and did not follow the most basic safety measures. There is plenty of blame to go around regarding negligence from a host of people but as the producer and star, he was most negligent. He didn’t follow safety protocol, he cocked the weapon, he pointed it at a living human being, he pulled the trigger.
Alex Baldwin was negligent and should face prison time for killing a woman.

What would happen to you or I if we were at the range, someone handed you a loaded firearm and told you it was not loaded and you pointed it at the person next to you and pulled the trigger killing that person? Do you think even for a moment that you could use the excuse that the person who handed you the gun said it wasn’t loaded so you are not at fault for the death of another person?
