Alec Baldwin Shoots two, Kills One

So many Hollywood dipshits, celebrities and pro athletes skate from crimes because of who they are. Happens all the time.

Affiant learned after the gun was fired, David Halls picked up the firearm from a pew inside the church, and took it to the Armorer (Hannah Gutierrez). Hannah then was told to ?open? the gun so he could see what was inside. David advised he could only remember seeing at least four ?dummy? casings with the hole on the side, and one without the hole. He advised this round did not have the ?cap? on it and was just the casing. David advised the incident was not a deliberate act. When Affiant asked David about the safety protocol on set in regards to firearms, he advised, ?I check the barrel for obstructions, most of the time there?s no live fire, she (Hannah) opens the hatch and spins the drum, and I say cold gun on set.? David advised when Hannah showed him the firearm before continuing rehearsal, he could only remember seeing three rounds. He advised he should have checked all of them, but didn?t, and couldn?t recall if she spun the drum.

Is it just me or does this description just seem like they are overcomplicating things. How about NO LIVE AMMO ON THE SET?

The crew member responsible for overall safety on the set of Rust has admitted he didn’t properly check the gun that Alec Baldwin fired on October 21 and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

The TLDR version:


Baldwin pays off crew member to avoid manslaughter charge.

[Gman]

I'd put money his civil issues will be far worse than his criminal issues.

Not taking that bet.

This. Halls is taking the dive for Baldwin.

"That firearm was a F.lli Pietta long Colt 45 revolver," said Sheriff Adan Mendoza, at a news conference on Wednesday."

I was close. See post #76. I said a Colt SAA in .45 Colt.

Was it a black powder load? All I want to know.

I really doubt it. There's been some reports of mixed ammunition cartridges and target practice in "down time", and it's only a 7 million dollar budget, they would've been using whatever was easy, fast, and available with a 24 year old armorer, it probably came from Wal-Mart. I'm sure it was set to be as historically accurate as Star Wars - IMO After Baldwin is paid it sounds like a McDonalds drive through salary remained to finish the movie. Lol.

[eddiememphis]

I agree with FoxArt. This piece of crap was unlikely to be historically accurate, and the green haired girl in charge of the guns doesn't strike me as the type load her own rounds so that the three people that actually waste their time watching it would go, "Gee, they are using blackpowder rounds, that's very authentic."

Brings a whole different meaning to Cast Bullet loads.
