Alec Baldwin’s legal troubles are just beginning! After more than a year-long investigation into the tragedy on the set of the film Rust, he is going to be charged with the fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins.
As you know, the star/producer discharged a prop gun containing live rounds while rehearsing on the set of the Western film on October 21, 2021. A slug hit and killed the 42-year-old cinematographer and injured director Joel Souza. Alec repeatedly stated that this was a horrible accident, insisting that he never even pulled the trigger. But looking into the incident, the FBI concluded the gun could not have fired unless the trigger was pulled. Furthermore, it was later revealed that several people on set weren’t following safety protocols at the time. While it was initially believed the 30 Rock alum wasn’t going to face criminal prosecution for the shooting, a report in September of last year suggested charges would be brought against him and others. Now, it looks like the DA has followed through!
