Alec Baldwin kills someone in movie accident

So if I get handed a real loaded gun, point it at an innocent person and pull the trigger, as long as somebody video records it, it’s not my fault? Am I getting it right from the media now?

Gun That Killed DP ...ALLEGEDLY USED FOR OFF-SET TARGET PRACTICE

That came out on friday.

It was also reported the previous two "misfires" were actually discharges with live ammo.....

Just nuts. This will be a circus when the whole mess is exposed. A full clown car of idiots involved.

It's my understanding that the "bullet" or whatever killed the lady, went through her and hit the man, not penetrating him completely. Wouldn't they have that "bullet" now? Wouldn't that help determine if it was a live round or something else?

How do you know that wasn't the scene? They do that all the time where the shooter is pointing right at the camera. Someone earlier in the thread already posted a video showing how the cameramen have these shields to protect them from the wadding and unburnt powder.

I think the bigger question is how on earth did live ammo get on the set? And how it didn't get noticed in all the safety checks. If the rumors are true that it was actual live ammo then I would lean towards foul play, especially since the workers were apparently mad as hell. What better way to sabotage the movie and get your revenge.

Why didn't they use CGI like John Wick?

I know why, just want it conformed...

A major problem child appears to be the assistant Director Hall. It sounds like various arrows are pointing back to him for ongoing poor safety practices, and obviously the armorer failed at her primary job of controlling and accounting for those weapons at all times:

"The gun was one of three that the film's armorer, Hannah Gutierrez, had set on a cart outside the wooden structure where a scene was being acted, according to the records. Assistant director Dave Halls grabbed the gun from the cart and brought it inside to Baldwin, unaware that it was loaded with live rounds, a detective wrote in the search warrant application.

Complaints had previously been made that Halls allowed unsafe practices on productions, according to a prop maker who worked with him on 2019's "Into the Dark" anthology series."

The more I read the more I'm sure this will come 180 and be the guns fault, and a cry for more gun control will be one result, likely lead by you know who. That's how he will absolved his conscience over this event.

It was known to be a live round on friday when search warrant was issued.
