I have read several accounts of this horrible incident; it seems officials are leaning over backwards to avoid saying it was an accident. I assume there is no question of intentional injury (wasn’t that a plot line of a Columbo episode?) but it seems there must be some question of negligence or not following safety protocols?

Whomever was in charge of props (sometimes there is a specific firearms propmaster on set, but this was supposedly a low budget indie film) is responsible for inspecting all weapons to ensure they are safe and that actors are trained in their usage. The liability will rest on that person’s shoulders, not Baldwin’s. That said, in a civil suit, they will inevitably sue whomever has the most money, regardless of actual liability, and that is likely to be Baldwin. 

And yes, the basic idea was used in Columbo.

After Jon-Erik Hexxum killed himself with a prop gun in 1984 the entertainment industry adopted much tougher rules for using guns, Jon Hamm told a hilarious story on WTF about working on a low-budget cable TV cop show where they could draw guns but couldn't fire them because they didn't have the money to hire a safety expert. So instead they always hit the bad guy in the head to knock him out.
In Nevada, felony stupid (reckless disregard) is enough to get someone charged with second degree murder in a death. I don't know what the New Mexico law is.
And then there's Baldwin's infamous temper.

Since none of us really knows the full details, I'm not going to speculate here. And I see Baldwin has just Tweeted his heartbreak: https://twitter.com/AlecBaldwin

One interesting thing I noted on Twitter elsewhere was Craig Zobel, the director of Mare of Easttown amongst others, noting that these days, doing gunshots in VFX is far easier than it used to be. On Easttown, all the gun effects were added in afterwards.

https://twitter.com/craigzobel/status/1451405649070407682

And Rian Johnson, director of Knives Out amongst others, in response to a VFX artist who similarly explained what's doable these days, points out that when shooting on film, with only 24 frames a second, you might actually miss the gunflare that you're no doubt hoping to capture.


While VFX adds cost, I suspect that these kinds of shots are pretty easy to do. In any event, I'm sure it'll become much more the norm in the wake of this accident.

I’ve been on the record disliking Alec Baldwin long before it was fashionable, not because of his politics, but because of a combination of his lack of character and lack of talent. But as they tend to do, conservative social media (and more than a few high ranking GOP politicians) are vilifying the guy before any of the facts are in. I cannot stand Baldwin, but I don’t believe he intended to actually shoot or kill anyone. If it turns out decisions to cut corners on crew safety were made by him, that’d certainly be in keeping with his reputation as a bastard, but we don’t know that yet. I’m fully prepared to have another reason to dislike a Baldwin brother, but I’ll hold off until I know more details. 

In the meantime, if Baldwin had an ounce of compassion, he’d pay the whole crew out of his own pocket for the full scheduled duration of the shoot, but scrub the project… this is not a film anybody needs to see, and the public relations cost to release the film is going to be larger than any profit made from the picture.

This Deadline piece lists a bunch of other producers involved, plus a couple of financiers including the vaunted CAA, so how invested Baldwin is in it remains to be seen.


Still, that won't rule out a total scrap as Kevin suggested, given some critics will invoke at least one of the Hexum incident, the Brandon Lee death on "The Crow," or even the Vic Morrow death from Twilight Zone: The Movie, even though it involved much-larger-scale explosives than the prop gun.

I’m not a gun advocate, and I have no love of the 2nd Amendment, however, the problem would seem to be one of adhering to and enforcing the very strict safety protocols and procedures. In this specific instance, the problem is not the guns. That said, if realism can be faked (forgive the irony) without actual weaponry on set, then so be it.

Forensic analysis of the gun indicates it could not have discharged unless the trigger had been pulled. 

This contradicts Baldwin’s claim that he didn’t pull the trigger.

It is very Trump like that he keeps focusing on denying A) that he did something that he almost certainly did do and B) that is secondary to the main tragedy/potential crime.

I suppose if he admitted that he pulled the trigger it would open him up to public criticism and perhaps civil liability for contributory negligence, but as he himself says, the real issue is why was there live ammunition in the gun. Unless we are going full Columbo we don’t really think he contrived to intentionally murder the woman by replacing the blank with live ammo himself.

There seems to be evidence of negligence on set at least in part by Baldwin as producer. As he’s also the one who pulled the trigger, his guilt seems doubly obvious.

I think he is being tried for his actions as an actor. Seems like there are 2 issues: 1) Did he pull the trigger? (he says he did not and gun fired due to a malfunction; investigation concluded gun functioned properly and would only fire if trigger pulled) and 2) Does an actor have an affirmative duty to check a prop gun before firing, regardless of what he was told about its load (Prosecutors say yes, definitely, so Baldwin’s claim that he was told there were no live rounds is irrelevant).

Felony stupid in most states qualifies you for Florida residency.

As for the stupid in this piece - while it's explained why the DA isn't going to charge Baldwin in the shooting of the director, it does nothing to explain why the circumstances are different enough that the DA intends to charge Baldwin in the death of the cinematographer.  If it matters that only one of the victims died, why not say so?  I doubt the question is that difficult to answer.

Not that I expect clarity from TMZ, but this piece raises more questions than it answers.  I'll wait for Legal Eagle to get around to this on YouTube for some answers.

Prolonging this trial (these trials) might be beneficial to Baldwin from a legal standpoint, but the bad press of this being the only thing anybody currently associates with Alec Baldwin isn’t going to be good for his career and image. He shot a couple of people. Granted, he’s not Kyle Rittenhouse, but he might as well be at this point. Heck, Rittenhouse’s lunatic right wing Nazi following keeps him financially secure, so he might be better off than Alec in the long term.

Maybe I am naive but I think Baldwin’s career is already over, regardless of the outcome. He is at real legal jeopardy here, and the only thing that matters (for him) is limiting that jeopardy. I think his legal team has already done a good job for him, getting charges reduced and getting a super-charged adversary removed from the prosecution. I also think his lawyers were absolutely right on both issues.

Baldwin is at an age where lots and lots of people retire and like many of those people it might not be his choice. Hollywood can certainly get along without his services.

The difference between Baldwin and Rittenhouse is intent. Baldwin did not aim his weapon or even pull the trigger with the intention of hurting anyone else. While the negligence might have been criminal it’s tough to convince a jury to deprive a person of their freedom for years because of an accident.

I remember reading that 95% of criminal cases result in a plea deal. Prosecutors make up a maximal list of charges in order to negotiate them down. A high profile jury trial is going to be a toss up and if the prosecution can’t get Baldwin’s side to settle they will have to review the charges and figure out what they can convince a jury of, and it’s probably much less than the current charges.

One hopes that civil litigation can help sort out liability. I maintain that although Baldwin pulling the trigger was unintentional, his role as a producer who failed to uphold the safety protocols make him at fault.

 It was always going to be a reach to make this a criminal act by Baldwin. The AP story I read said that there was a chance the DA will re-file, but it does feel like the original DA overcharged, and the case has been shrinking ever since.

A civil case against the production seems not just more likely to be successful, but more likely to make an important difference in safety on sets. The solution is not to convict every actor who fails to double check their props, but to fine producers up the Wazoo for not enforcing proper safety procedures.

Again, if they have evidence that the decisions he made as producer (i.e. disregarding safety policies) allowed a loaded gun to be placed in his hands, then he is guilty. If not, then he isn’t.

Perhaps, but guilty of what? The article seems to suggest they have new evidence to support the original charge of involuntary manslaughter. Originally the focus was on whether Baldwin just cocked the hammer (as he claimed) or pulled the trigger. Early tests suggested the gun could have gone off without pulling the trigger, but now apparently new evidence indicates fir gun to have fired the trigger had to be pulled. None of that relates to negligence regarding safety protocols on set. Those issues seem to be the subject of civil litigation.
