Abstract
- Alec Baldwin is currently on trial for involuntary manslaughter in Santa Fe, New Mexico, over the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film "Rust" in 2021. Prosecutors argue that Baldwin recklessly pointed a Colt .45 at Hutchins and pulled the trigger, causing her death. The case will likely hinge on whether the jury believes Baldwin acted with "willful disregard" for safety. While some crew members believe Baldwin shares responsibility, others argue that the armorer and first assistant director should shoulder more blame. Baldwin maintains that he did not pull the trigger and that he pointed the gun at Hutchins only because she instructed him to. [Extracted from the article]
