Very impressed with the judge. She served up that prosecutor. I've never seen this before. Wow.

Arrogance is her problem. Go back and watch her in the courtroom before this - disregarding the judge’s rules as to how objections should be made, acting like she owned the courtroom. Hubris made her think she could judge the evidence and not turn it over.

Great Judge. She is no nonsense. She was no nonsense when sentencing Hannah Gutierrez Reed. We need her handling the Karen Read case!

I’m saying that the justice system works. He should not be wrongfully convicted because of subterfuge. We all need prosecutors to be honorable.

Agree with Fil Waters. Baldwin is the farthest removed from responsibility. The armorer is fully responsible. Too bad they could not identify where the live rounds came from. Bottom line it's a film set where live ammunition is never to be. Not the actor's fault.

Rest in peace lovely Haylna. 🙏🙏💕💕

Yes, RIP

Justice was served with Alec, State completely ruined their case by hiding that evidence.

I've been so internally divided on the Baldwin case. I think he's a jerk and should have checked the gun himself to see what ammo was in, but the more I learned about the law and how things work on sets, the less I could see him as legally culpable. So, I prayed for justice to prevail in this case, and it seems this is my answer. He's still a jerk, but he's not going to jail. Gutierrez-Reed was responsible for the live round being in the gun and she is in jail. So, that's all the justice that's needed in this case. It is my hope that the film industry will see the need to make some changes in handling firearms on the set. Hutchins should have never died in the way she did.

Whether you think Alec is a jerk has nothing to do with our justice system. The simple fact is that actors must rely on experts. Experts must rely on checks and balances and have a director or set producer ensure that the gun is checked. In this case, the actor relies on the expert who loaded a live round in the gun. The set producer failed to check the gun. The actor was clearly told that the gun was cold, meaning that it could not possibly kill someone unless maybe he throws the gun at someone’s head. Both the expert and the set producer are guilty and Alec (jerk or not) is innocent. Period. Full stop. That's the law!

Too, an actor should not be the one to check the gun because they may not know firearms not anything about different types of ammo. In fact, it would be dangerous to rely on the actor to know if the gun is safe or not! Would you want your brain to be operated on by a plumber?

Bless him, great result for him ...

At the beginning of this trial, the judge declared that they could only be suing him as either an actor or a producer, but not both. This took everyone by surprise and the prosecution stupidly chose to take him on as an actor. That is too arguable. I'm sure he would have won either way. They should have gone after him as a producer. He was the man who bought the story property and proceeded to shoot in the cheapest venue in the country and hired the cheapest crew he could find including a 24-year-old drug using incompetent as armorer. The big thing is he chose to keep her even after they had had three different incidences of guns going off before this one. He kept her even though most of the camera crew had walked off the set on that day. At the very least he is 100% guilty of contributory negligence IMHO.

If that evidence had been revealed initially, how would it have affected the trial ?

@bluezauza

From what I heard from different lawtube lawyers, the issue is not the importance of the evidence itself, but that prosecution hid the fact that it existed, taking away from defense the opportunity to use if they chose to. It's not up to anyone to hide evidence, the only thing the prosecutor could do was to chose not to use it herself, but she was obliged to have it in the case evidence under the same case number for the defense to consult, investigate and whatever else they do. Who knows if defense would chose to use that evidence and testimony, it is not up to the prosecutor to decide. Also everyone who knew about it did the same, the detective, the evidence criminologist , the prosecutor hid it under another case number, this can reflect in many ways, one is that detectives did not investigate where it came from and who owned it, since some of it was from the same lot of the fatal bullet, that could prove where the live amno came from and how it ended up in that gun, ( and at least another actor's gun also had live amno), was it on purpose, was it by accident etcetera. The witness that delivered that evidence said he was keeping it but did not want to have anymore, an ex cop... he went into a police station to give the detective the evidence but no one knows why exactly why he had them, because this was not investigated. But he did say that it was not from the Rush set BUT they were from the same lot of ammunition. It also proves bias from the whole investigation team, that focused on AB being guilty. If they decided to charge him has producer it would be harder for him to escape a guilty charge but as an actor holding a gun he was less responsible and this evidence shows that live ammunition was being taken from film set to film set and some of it was hidden, for some reason after the accident. AND worse, they all lied about it under oath in court. The prosecutor even said , several times, that the photos she saw of the bullets showed they did not look the same, the judge demanded to see them and some of them WERE just identical. She was in that room talking to the witness when he delivered those bullets. She plaid judge and jury by deciding that it was not relevant. How many poor people who are in jail had this done to them because they can not afford a great investigative team of lawyers, is the question that matters here .

I would have liked if the case went to the jury in the Alec case!

When a trial doesn't go your way it doesn't mean it's an injustice ....state didn't prove Nada, they didn't even get off the ground and clearly violated many things.

Hurray for Scott and Fil!

AB should sue the licensed "expert" armorer who tragically failed at her job to keep everyone safe and the assistant director who missed the live bullet for the living hell he's been put through.

I was on a jury. A small time case w/ no witnesses, no evidence, just he said she said….it NEVER should have gone to trial. Minority families, during a holiday party and advances were made to a minor. (No actual physical assault just attempt). Moving on…in deliberation we began the vote at 8-4 not guilty. Then a few LOUD MOUTHS had to be heard and pushed and pushed “what if’s” into the scenario. I remember saying, “we are to stick with the facts. Let’s discuss the facts.” The chatter on the “what if’s” and “if it were me’s”…..continued for the rest of the day. The next day of deliberation began the same way. BTW the deliberation room was so small it could barely fit a conference table & 12 chairs. It was suffocating. The chatter continued until the vote was 9-3 GUILTY…..all because of the pushy loudmouths and people were caving to go home. Lunch break came. I was alone standing against a wall. About 5-7 ft away 3-4 male jurors were discussing the case, not so quietly, but under their breath. THERE IT IS. Holy creeping cow. I meandered over to the bailiff by the court door, told him what I saw and heard, he acknowledged it, said TY. When we filed back in to be seated (and I was chair 7, ) the judge came out, we all stood, he stared at me for a sec….to catch my face, then after we sat down he said, “ Unfortunately, certain information has come to his attention….bla bla…and this case is now declared a mistrial. Jurors you can now all go home….the classic Thank you’s and end of court day words. I WAS NEVER SO HAPPY TO GET OUT OF THE CESS POOL deliberation room where this man was going to be found guilty on “what if’s and if it were me” talks and jurors being bullied by loud talkers to exasperate everyone else to just get it over with. I feel justice prevailed when I heard the loud mouths talking about the case at lunch. I’m glad I did what I did. Interesting note…about 5 years after my experience the judge was brought up on charges about his many, many, many complaints of unethical behavior and he was relieved by the county of his position.

My favorite panel!

This new revelation may affect the armorer Hannah Reed, now serving an eighteen month sentence for second degree murder. Defense counsel for Baldwin stated had he known of this hidden evidence, he might have used it in his opening statement to the jury. Counsel suggested jealousy by another armorer who might have mixed live and dummy ammo. A point raised by the armorer in her trial. Prosecutors never used this evidence in the armorer trial either. This evidence revealed by accident at the Baldwin trial on Thursday. The concealed evidence was in a different case folder with no identifying connection to the Rust case, so not likely armorer’s attorney knew of its existence.

Hope the Defendant & family donate to child of dead Director!! Alec Baldwin civil suit is well deserved!! For the Family who lost their wife and Mother

Joel, I am very disappointed that you didn't do any homework on the Prosecutor and thought she was the State's Attny. She is normally a defense attny and a very good one from comments of other attnys. Unfortunately, she forgot her role and made decisions as if she was the defense, when prosecutors cannot make those decisions. The defense knew about this situation prior to the beginning of the trial, but waited until the trial began, so jeopardy would be attached and if they won on the motion, the only valid result would be a dismissal w/prejudice. It's interesting to know that on the continuation of filming in Montana, no real guns were allowed on set. Only rubber guns and filled barrel guns were allowed on the set.

My two favorite guests too!!

Alec Baldwin was not charged by the DA. They initially didn't charge him but later the DA appointed two special prosecutors who took it to a grand jury, which indicted Baldwin. This was 100% the special prosecutors' case.

Am I the only one who doesn't believe the tears were real? I saw a lot of shoulder shaking and a lot of squinting, but I did not see the reflection from the room lights of salt water running down his cheeks.

I think that was as much theatre as the way the Baldwin's lined up in their seats so that every single camera shot showed Alec with his concerned wife and brother over his shoulder all day long.

He just didn't want to pay any more money or lose any more time. I think it was all about money for him and it cost Hannah her life.
