'Reckless' Alec Baldwin is formally charged in fatal 'Rust' shooting

Alec Baldwin has officially been charged with involuntary manslaughter for shooting dead Halyna Hutchins on the set of their movie Rust in October 2021 - with prosecutors stating that he was distracted during firearm training and and shortly after the incident admitted to officers he had fired the weapon: something he would later vehemently deny.

'Photo and video evidence from inside the church on the day of the shooting show some of the rehearsal up to and including moments before the shooting. 

'The photos and videos clearly show Baldwin multiple times with his finger inside of the trigger guard and on the trigger, while manipulating the hammer and while drawing, pointing and holstering the revolver.

    A stern lecture, no jail time and a 5 figure fine he'll peel from a wad of $100 bills.

    Coffee is for closers, Baldwin.

    If he demonstrates what he did in the court room, make sure you are behind him.

      Won't happen. A media charm offensive, shed some tears on Oprah, spread money around - a fine and some community service.

    A brief Google search shows that involuntary manslaughter is a 4th degree felony in NM. If convicted, does that mean he can’t handle firearms on set?

      If handling firearms constitutes possession, I'd say yes.

      Mark Wahlburg has a felony conviction, and they get around that by having him handle prop (fake) guns, not the real thing. So yes, you could see that slimy bastidge Baldwin acting like he's shooting people on film again if he gets convicted by using fake guns.

      If I may, H...

      In moviemaking, "prop" doesn't mean "fake", it's merely short for "property". Everything you see in a film is a prop except the clothes, and they're handled by Wardrobe. Some prop guns are fully functioning firearms used for special scenes. Brandon Lee was killed with one on the set of "The Crow".
