He shouldn't be charged at all is what I meant

He's the producer as well so he has more responsibility on the set. Maybe that's why

Yeah that doesn't mean he can control everything that happens on the set....if that's the case alot more people should get charged

People were complaining about things beforehand. They had people popping off live rounds on set for fun. I've been on many sets and things can go sideways real quick if producers are careless.
Not that I don't believe you but do you have receipts?
This seems like some game changing info. Was Alec involved with the pop offs? Was he aware that others were popping off? What was his response?

The one between three and three.
Alec Baldwin's Gun In 'Rust' Shooting Had Modified Trigger
Alec Baldwin continues to embarrass Santa Fe New Mexico authorities who charged him with involuntary manslaughter ... because he may have been right all along when he insisted he never pulled the trigger.
www.tmz.com
The prop gun Baldwin used back in 2021 had been modified, this according to the L.A. Times ... the trigger mechanism had been changed which increased the probability it could have misfired without Baldwin pulling the trigger.

I haven't really been following this, so I don't understand. How is it that he can be charged for this? Wasn't it completely an accident? I get there is such a thing as involuntary manslaughter, but even then you have to have some clue that your actions could harm someone else. Didn't he believe the prop was safe?

Yeah I dont understand how Alec can be charged for this. Granted, I dont know every single detail, but from what I understand is he was given a gun by the sets armorer and used it for scenes. Didnt hear anything about him loading it or exchanging it. I'm sure they try to make props seem as real as possible so how was he to know there wasn't any blanks in it and instead live ammo?
Wtf they need live ammo on a movie set for anyway?

Yeah baldwin lawyers should beat this charge he didn't know the gun was tampered with plus he can't control who loads up these prop guns

He’s the producer and hired the “armorer” no?
If that is at all true then yeah he is liable for negligence.

Sure liable in civil court, but criminal court? That's kinda crazy.
If you own a business, and one of your employees does some negligent shit without your knowledge, you think you should go to jail for it?
