Today (Friday 2/23/2024) was day 2 of the manslaughter trial of Hannah Gutierrez, the armorer on the set of the western "Rust." She is, IMO, better known as the fall guy.

As much as I despise Baldwin, ultimately he is not responsible. The armorer on the other hand is. He probably didn't know the difference between a dummy round and a real one. I can't even imagine that he would for any reason have checked.

Protocols and security was a joke on that movie set, a lot more people than that female armorer had access to both ammo and guns. Baldwin was a big shot producer of that movie, that makes him very high on the pecking order! This is very common and has been talked/typed a lot, do try to keep up! |

If a 3 YO gets a gun and shoots-who is responsible ? The toddler or the parent ? |

The GOLDEN RULE of firearm safety is to ALWAYS check the firearm to verify its loaded/unloaded status and to NEVER point it at ANYTHING you do not intend to shoot. Baldwin cocked that SAA past all 3 clicks, to the 4th 'ready' position, pointed it at the director, who was NOT in front of any camera, and pulled the trigger. Saying he is not responsible is just ignorant. |

His lackadaisical attitude on safety as the manager of the set could be easily seen as criminal. |

Agreed. This was not some terrible tragedy that happened while filming. The cameras weren't even rolling. They were discussing the next shot and crybaby Alec got impatient with the two and decided to get cute. This was 100% preventable and the ultimate responsibility lies with Baldwin. |
