Actor Alec Baldwin shoots and kills Director on set of movie

[Leo123]

More info:

The B-camera operator was on a dolly with a monitor, checking out the potential shots. Hutchins was also looking at the monitor from over the operator’s shoulder, as was the movie’s director, Joel Souza, who was crouching just behind her.
Baldwin removed the gun from its holster once without incident, but the second time he repeated the action, ammunition flew toward the trio around the monitor. The projectile whizzed by the camera operator but penetrated Hutchins near her shoulder, then continued through to Souza. Hutchins immediately fell to the ground as crew members applied pressure to her wound in an attempt to stop the bleeding.

Baldwin’s stunt double accidentally fired two rounds Saturday after being told that the gun was “cold” — lingo for a weapon that doesn’t have any ammunition, including blanks, two crew members who witnessed the episode told the Los Angeles Times.
“There should have been an investigation into what happened,” said the crew member. “There were no safety meetings. There was no assurance that it wouldn’t happen again. All they wanted to do was rush, rush, rush.”
A colleague was so alarmed by the prop gun misfires he sent a text message to the unit production manager. “We’ve now had 3 accidental discharges. This is super unsafe,” according to a copy of the message reviewed by The Times.

There also is no such thing as an “accidental” discharge. If a firearm is fired unintentionally it is negligence. Gun accidents are caused by only two things–ignorance and/or carelessness. If you are holding a pistol, it will not fire unless you put your finger on the trigger.

Baldwin wasn't playing with guns. He was making a movie.

He violated the No. 1 rule of gun safety: you never point a gun at another person.

Low budget film. Low budget actor. So another question I have is....if he was cutting corners because he's broke and was hoping to make some money from this movie, how could he afford that lady that has been lauded as a super star director of photography? Or did all his budget go to production INSTEAD of safety measures? Looks like it to me. Crew had to drive an hour to work because he was too ******* cheap to get them motels in the location itself when most motels would have loved to have a movie crew there.

I wonder why she agreed to do the job for that loser? Guess we will never know now. I hope her husband sues his pants off where he has NOTHING. Not even a car to park so he can punch someone else in the face for taking the space.

"Lesser" people would be doing time

He's just an asshole and a bully. He should be thankful anyone gives a damn about him as an actor

Maybe Dave Halls should be investigated? TWICE now, someone died due to his...negligence? Plan? Is this guy another Ted Bundy in disguise?

He was assistant director on the SEQUEL, not the same movie. That's like claiming credit for walking on the moon when you flew Jeff Bezo's Penis Rocket to the stars!

Come on Gracie, it was your post you were citing.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

most accidents are a result of stupidity.

No, most accidents are caused by failed birth control? Don't believe it? Ask your mother!

I'm sorry Gator! That was just too good not to post!

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Any word yet on when he will resume shooting?

Let's hope there is no more shooting!

Effeminate men should not make westerns. I hope he's learned his lesson

Most liberal men are so GD effeminate they are gender confused

Absolutely correct, he can't lay it all at the feet of the person who handed him the gun. He has to always practice gun safety. Double check the ammo, put bullet proof plexi in front of camera operator, don't aim directly at the person behind the camera & make sure everyone else is out of line of fire. Clearly, multiple safety protocols were skipped.

Halyna Hutchins family needs to sue Baldwin, the gun armor, director & the movie company for millions.

This is likely murder & should be investigated as such. Possibly a Trump supporter loading live round to get back at Baldwin for his protesting against & many SNL portrayals of Trump. Or Hutchins may have been having sex with one of them & they were afraid of being exposed.

True. Never point a gun at ANYONE except in self defense.
