I remember when Alec Baldwin was funny in 30 Rock. That was a long, long time ago, since then, things have gone downhill. I say downhill, it’s more like being pushed off a cliff.
On 21st Oct 2021, a new movie was being, shot, sorry, I should say ‘filmed’, out of respect. In one scene, Baldwin shot a prop gun, but it contained a live round. The bullet hit cinematographer, Halyna Hutchins, and director, Joel Souza. Sadly, Hutchins wound was fatal.
The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office initially investigated the shooting, but it was soon in the hands of the FBI. The Santa Fe District Attorney charged Baldwin, and the movie’s armourer, Hannah Gurierrez-Reed, with involuntary manslaughter.
Gurierrez-Reed was found guilty of tampering with evidence, the gun that Baldwin fired. She was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced to 18 months in jail.
Baldwin, on the other hand, is rich and famous. He pled not guilty to the involuntary manslaughter charge. The trial didn’t last long as “the charges were dismissed with prejudice three days later over a Brady disclosure violation”:
The judge found that authorities, in an “intentional and deliberate” manner, withheld evidence from the defense, regarding a set of bullets, and that this displayed “signs of scorching prejudice.
Not Again Alec
There was no definitive outcome to Baldwin killing Hutchins, but he pulled the trigger on a gun, where the bullet killed her. It seems like he didn’t do it on purpose, but he seems to have a killer streak.
In a recent video online, Baldwin said:
“If the camera wasn’t here, I’d snap your fu*king neck in half, and break your fu*king neck.”
To be fair, he was pushed. A Trump impersonator did push his buttons, in fact the guy had balls of steal!
WOAH! Alec Baldwin threatens the life of Trump impersonator. “If the camera wasn’t here, I’d snap your fu*king neck in half, and break your fu*king neck.
Makes you wonder, with such violent talk, if that shooting was an accident.pic.twitter.com/cmlNsxszlP

It starts off pretty funny, but then Alec goes as says something like that. Good job that camera was there, that guy could have been killed. That’s why I have someone filming me 24/7! The footage is pure comedy gold and no one can kill me.
The good news is, Baldwin has now employed that Trump impersonator as his new cinematographer for his next movie. It’s a Western with lots of guns.
