28 thoughts on “Johnny Depp’s Lawyer on Alec Baldwin’s Trial: ‘He Has To Testify’”
  1. How the F is even Alec there? He should be free. Its not a actors fault if the people behind the set made that mistake. It was not Alec who made the pistol, it was not Alec who put gunpowder in the gun. If someone should take the blame its people who made the gun rdy for him to use on the set. This must be the easiest case ever.

  2. Baldwin's defence he is a actor and takes no responsibility whatsoever. We should all ignore he failed to comply with weapon safety procedures. He failed to check a real gun. He pointed the gun, cocked the hammer and pulled the trigger.

  3. If Hannah Gutierrez had done her job properly, Halyna would be alive, period, could've happened to other actor, like it happened to Alec.
    I agree with Ben, he blew it by saying he knew you don't point a gun at someone, and that he should testify

  4. Why is he getting charged with manslaughter when it was a workplace accident?

    If an excavator operators swings the excavator around and hits a laborer by accident that That is an unfortunate workplace place accident
    Not a crime

  5. Johnny Depp trial was a different situation period! Alec Baldwin is guilty for his part in the Rust Shooting period, Alec pulled the trigger or touched it somehow for the gun to go off. A gun just doesn’t go off by itself.

  6. I think Baldwin has fully cooked himself. Studios don't want him, other actors don't want him and the general public is a mixed bag. Basic to firearms, don't point at anything you don't intended to destroy, loaded or not. They were too cheap to use specially made non real model guns.

  7. Balwin is guilty and a hot head, Johnny was innocent and such a gentle soul! That’s why Johnny’s testimony worked! Alec taking the stand would put him down for sure, not that not testifying would save him either

  8. This is a Criminal trial not a Civil case over money . And it could be argued Depp never should've taken the stand in his UK trial, let alone taken the case to court. He'd still have a career if he didn't.

  9. Baldwin is such an absolute blow hard. He’s a liar and an old entitled famous guy that’s trying to talk himself out of culpability. Can’t wait until he’s no longer talked about so often.
