Alec Baldwin to be charged with involuntary manslaughter in 'Rust' movie set shooting

The family is looking for someone to blame and this is the result. The problem is, it won't bring her back. This just wreaks more havoc in lives already torn apart by the tragedy.

Any time there is a wrongful death the family sues.
Are you saying this was not a wrongful death? If not, what the heck is for cryin' out loud.
Where's Jarod? I'll bet he'd take this case in a heartbeat.
I like to hear his opinion on this.

I would. At least before the camera rolls. Not during . Of course not. Before. I get the impression Bruce Willis has a lot more common sense than Alec.

I would check it when it enters my hand and everytime it changes hands. I fact there are actors that do just that.

Sure he would Baldwin has deep pockets.

I pretty sure Baldwin and the family have already reached a settlement. The law says that people that recklessly cause the death of another shall be held accountable. The law is speaking for Halyna Hutchins.

Yes, but this accomplishes nothing. It was not deliberate. And it will never bring her back. I wouldn't do it.

Her husband is replacing her as director of the movie, that speaks volumes. He obviously doesn’t hold Baldwin responsible.

A settlement has already been reached, is my understanding.

What does this accomplish besides cheapening her death? It will not bring her back.

Lol, no, I’m saying that Baldwin isn’t responsible. Did you know her husband is taking her place directing the movie? That’s a statement that he doesn’t hold Baldwin responsible.

The point is to prevent other people from needlessly and recklessly risking other peoples lives. That is why we prosecute the teenager that speeds and gets in a wreck that kills someone else. It won't bring them back but it is an object lesson not to do such stupid things.

They've already settled.
Probably no hard feelings but there had to be some sort of responsibility by someone in a wrongful death.

Then the armorer is liable, not Baldwin. He is an actor, not a props checker.

I'm not crazy about Baldwin's political views but I don't think he should be charged and do time for something he isn't responsible for.
 
anonymoose said:
I know enough. He pointed a gun at an innocent person without checking it first and killed her. Am I wrong?

He's a great actor!
His armorer is every bit as guilty. I don't even know who he or she is. You think I hate her?

Let is repeat, you have no fucking clue as to the details in this case. Had it been a right wing actor instead, we would be hearing just how innocent he is.

Baldwin is an asshole, but you’re right, this is ridiculous.

Or it is a statement he doesn't mind furthering his own career and getting paid off at the same time. The prosecutor disagrees with you learned legal opinion.BTW
