Baldwin’s armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to 18 months in prison.

  1. Does in actors' contracts include term that the actors should know how to recognize the difference between real and fake bullets? If not, the whole trial is questionable. Baldwin has responsibility as a co-producer (did he ensure the appropriate safety measures of the set?). As an actor, he did what thousand of actors have done in action movies: try to get accustomed with the gun for the needs of his role. If it was a kid actor holding this gun, whould they consider the kid accountable?

  2. He knew he was going to be 'found' not guilty, but he had to listen to all of this.
    He killed the woman, it was his mistake or whatever, the prosecutor was great; however, democrats protect their own people.
    He's probably working on a sequel of the movie, The Perfect Shooter, while the prosecutor is talking.

  3. This is crazy that they are attempting to pin this on AB. Hes an Actor. In what world would anyone expect an Actor to confirm live bullets, etc? Of course these types of confirmations should take place BEFORE handing an actor a loaded gun.

  4. After we noticed how supreme court took bribes, I advice the honorable advocates to note Hollywood owning money allready. In so to avoid any further attempt of bribing court members in from the unruly party decision of not comply with regulation allready stipulated nevertheless verdicted by all right administrators , I ask court to do not include any of us untill the asking price is payd in full. Now if court insist then perhaps they are the one asking for some bribes? So 15 years seclusion is my verdict. Figure it why if you all professionals.

  5. Safety experts are the ones in charge. Anything else is total nonsense. It doesn’t matter wether the prosecutor or defense is more entertaining with their open speeches. This isn’t hollywood.

  6. the guilty become incredible note takers when in court 😂like all narcissists they will help their lawyers with their notes. so predictable. alec your body language reveals your contempt for the process, its disrespectful to the judge and jury.

  7. I despise when defendants pretend they are not in the courtroom and scribble to themselves on paper. I don't like Alec Baldwin but it was the person in charge of the gun who is in jail who is at fault here. I don't believe for one minute Alec had any idea there was even a possibility of a bullet being in that prop. There should have been absolutely no real bullets anywhere near that movie set period. The amour did not do her job and was 100% negligent.
