Baldwin did not have any reasonable expectation to view the firearm as loaded as he was on a movie set which had a person assigned to weapon safety.



Facts matter.
New Mexico is notorious for going very easy on killers. Perhaps that is one reason there have been 100 homicides in Albuquerque so far this year. Alec will walk. That will not excuse his culpability as he failed to check for a live round in the weapon then carelessly aimed the weapon at the lady and pulled the trigger.

Then he lied, claiming he had not pulled the trigger. The FBI lab proved he had pulled the trigger. What a guy!

APD: homicides at record pace after 100th homicide in 2022

In the long run facts and laws do indeed matter. Hollywood rules, regulations and procedures do not.
