Judge dismisses case against Alec Baldwin in 'Rust' trial
The judge in Alec Baldwin’s involuntary manslaughter trial dismissed the case after agreeing with the actor's lawyers that prosecutors hid evidence that may have been linked to the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the Western movie “Rust” in 2021.

This prosecutor blew it from the initial charges, when she tried to charge him with something that wasn't even a crime at the time it happened. Just rookie moves from the beginning. I wouldn't be surprised if there's an ethical inquiry at the New Mexico state bar association. And believe me, that special prosecutor didn't quit because she disagreed with the judge. She quit because she disagreed with the DA - who looks like she broke the law here.

@@FrankBria it wasn't a realistic charge, the da grandstanded. She charged Baldwin with manslaughter bc it was his set as producer and basically said he was responsible for the lack of safety. That is like charging a CEO with fraud if an employee creates an investment scam that goes south, arguing that lax policy allowed this to happen. That kind of thing has basis in civil court, not criminal. If it did there would be a lot of ceo's in jail for crimes subordinates perpetuated.

Maybe so but it seems safety took a back seat . I still wonder what does the union have to say about this ? For example I'm told there should have been a safety shield in front of the camera. There's stories about cast and crew firing live rounds for fun..did Baldwin take part or know about it ?
It was a very weak case. I don't believe him that he never pulled the trigger but there was a professional armorer that handed him a loaded gun on a movie set with live ammo brought in by her. This is 100% on her

New Mexico DA did their own tests on the gun and got it to fire without pulling the trigger, and only by pulling back the hammer. The gun had been modified, and there’s no way he knew that. Also, the armorer did not hand Baldwin the gun, it was assistant director Dave Halls, who took a plea deal. That’s 2 people who were supposed to check the gun before handing it to him.

100% agree with you. When its procedure for them to call out "Cold Gun on Set" yet you are still suppose to handle the gun in manner as if the gun "may be hot" makes zero sense. And lets not forget that this is a movie set. The actors are handling these guns in ways that on a gun range for example would be not acceptable. They are drawing them aggressively... pointing in multiple directions and pulling the trigger is many cases. The only thing I will ask is if there is instances of "Cold Guns" being used on sets... why isn't there multiple guns used and some of them designated as cold guns with the firing pins removed? You think this would be common sense for safety.

I've never understood why he was charged and not the armorer or the prop mfg. I can't believe there was such a mob hate against him. Was he negligent on the set with the gun yes, did he know that there was live rounds, absolutely not. We feel terrible for Halyna Hutchins (may her RiP) and her family/friends however this was an accident and the armorer didn't do her job and was completely negligent and the prop mfg was absolutely negligent of the highest means. Alec go and get some rest and find your inner peace. We will pray for Halyna's family of course as well.

He's an actor in a western, it is his job to point guns at people. The whole "he should have checked the gun himself" argument is ridiculous. There is a person on-set whose job it is to ensure that guns are not loaded with live ammo and they failed to do so. This fiasco is their responsibility. I know a lot of people hate Baldwin because he's a progressive, but if you're actually Americans you need to understand that a ruling against Baldwin would undermine the role of the armorer and place legal responsibility upon the actor that they should not have, because they are not licensed or trained for it. Armorers are there for a reason.

He is responsible. By their own rules and guidelines, any person who is in a position to operate a firearm on set is required to safety check the gun and it is forbidden to point any firearm at another person, even one that is loaded with blanks. Those rules were in place while filming. He violated two major safety rules and as a result, a person was killed. He has money and power, so the judge ruled on a ridiculous technicality which any person without his resources would never have had that opportunity.

But... there is a limit to what they can be held accountable for. For example... let's say someone involved with catering on the set would've set up a coffee machine incorrectly and someone ends up having a coffee that is way, way too hot or something to that effect... would you also hold the producer accountable for that? We know the armorer hired for this movie was, well, very much unfit for the role, to say the least. So, yeah, who hired her? Yeah, someone is responsible there. But, really... at some point, it just becomes... a very, very unfortunate convergence of events. All in all... the death of the victim obviously very clearly just was a very tragic accident.

Good - annoying that he was charged. Waste of resources. Someone handed him a gun with a bullet and, while acting, he discharged it (THINKING IT WAS NOT LOADED!). Ugh. The prosecutors knew it and tried to hide evidence to make a case. Ridiculous.
I'm glad this prosecutor was caught. Deliberately withholding evidence is very bad.
Whoever made the decision to hide evidence should be disbarred, or at the very least sanctioned.
Make sure y’all keep that same energy with other cases, specifically out of NY.
Hey it’s NM . Corruption abounds .
The person who handed him a loaded gun belongs in prison not him it was supposed to be a friggin prop
They imploded their case...
this is not misconduct, this is a crime
Shouldn't have been a trial to begin with. It wasn't his fault. I'm happy for him

@@Itz_Crawfish It is the responsibility of anyone handed a gun to check to see if it is loaded and to handle it properly. Alec broke multiple gun safety rules. If he had followed them the incident would not have happened. With that said incarcerating him would do no good for anyone as he is not a threat to anyone and he would never make that mistake again after going through what he went through. With that said after the technician was convicted and sentenced I expected Alec to receive a tougher sentence was the responsible party.

Now that’s corrupt
Good to see the witch hunt is over. The social media prosecution will be upset at the result, so many experts.
My beliefs is that there are multiple individuals that were in on this homicide there was a LOT of Lies
He's not crying because they won the case. He is crying because he is visibly shaken and the whole situation totally sucks. I feel so sorry for him and her lost life.
Prosecutors are gonna learn you must play fair or you want play at all
It had to be this way!
He should have never been charged..
So glad Baldwin is a free man. Now it is time to go after the armorer who handled him the gun and prosecutors who started all this drama for no reason.
7/12/2024 If Alec Baldwin had not been born, then the cinematographer would still be alive for her family! This is why all the 'super rich' should help make the vasectomy FREE to any adult male who wants it done!!! Ideally, Melinda French Gates should focus her new '1 Billion Fund to Help Women' on making the vasectomy FREE to any male who wants is done because this is REALLY THE FASTEST WAY TO HELP WOMEN ALL OVER THE WORLD!!! Ideally, Alec Baldwin should not be allowed in front of any cinematographer, not allowed near any firearms, any film crew staff, out of respect for the shortened life of Halyna (not a typo!!!) Hutchins (not a typo!!!). Ideally, any man getting a vasectomy should get rewarded with a FREE 'fast food for life, three times a day' (including his children and the mother(s) of his children) in order to persuade millions to hurry up and get it done, before this deal ends (try to limit it to 'limited to the number of people allowed in or near each fast food outlet' for crowd control reasons). THIS COULD HELP EVERY FOOD BANK IN EVERY ZIP CODE ALL OVER THE WORLD!!! 8 billion people, and it is supposed to double about every forty years!!! This is incredibly important!!! Alec Baldwin is an incredibly boring person!!!
Why did the prosecutor think they could get away with this??? Meanwhile the victim doesn’t get justice.

He should sue them in civil courts they violated hes right to a fair trial... They knew exactly what they did. Whoever was involved should be held accountable
What injustice
He did nothing other than act as an actor prop/personnel management to blame..
What a farce 🤬
He must've went through so much stress thinking about the possibility of going to prison and the fact he accidentally killed someone, i feel sorry for him
An extremely rare case where the Justice system did NOT fail!! Congratulations on your deserved freedom Mr. Alec Baldwin!!

I wonder who would even consider that AB fired the gun on purpose. How ridiculous. Good for him this is over. He will still have to live with the fact that he took a life and deal with it for the rest of his. I am just shocked about how it came to this outcome. Not very professional. Feel sorry for the victim's family.

He was responsible for his movie set, there is no reason real guns should have been on set.
Is there double jeopardy or can the prosecutor try again.
Didn't expect it to go any other way. It was going to be dismissed, no matter what. Corruption runs Deep.
