Lawyer Reacts | Rust Wrongful Death Lawsuit. Alec Baldwin Sued Again.

[@lynn2574]

My husband is a Commercial producer, and frequently does his own shoots. And if there is ANY safety issue, he does a meeting with anyone and everyone present during the shoot. And that’s just for a short spot.

[@Amarianee]

That's why I found the broad statement that, "there are no safety meetings these days," odd. I've _never_ worked on a show that didn't have safety meetings for a number of dangerous things (including guns, fire, explosions etc). That's partly why this was so egregious, because most of Hollywood takes safety meetings very seriously.

[@corkycobon1481]

My hubs is a professional stagehand with IATSE. He had a MASSIVE rage fit when this broke in the news. Having had worked in all manner of productions from working pyro for concerts, commercials and full length films, he is exact words were: "Who the hell brought live rounds onto a hot set??? Where are the safety logs??" This whole saga is such a tragic shit show. I totally feel for Halyna's family. The unmitigated nightmare they have to live through right now makes my heart shatter into a thousand pieces. I can't even begin to imagine.

[@butterflymoon6368]

Your husband sounds scary. I hope he wasn't forcing you to listen to his rage fit.

[@g996]

@@butterflymoon6368 it just sounds like their husband was rightfully upset about a tragedy that could have been prevented. It obviously seems to have affected him more because he is in that line of work. I don’t mean to speak for OP, but he doesn’t sound scary at all. He sounds angry and upset about a life being taken because safety was not a priority for the people in charge, and those emotions are completely justifiable in this situation.

[@kmcheesehead7953]

I know this is legal analysis, but I cried the whole time. My heart is broken for Haylna's husband and son. I lost my best friend of 25 years shortly after her 40th birthday leaving behind a wonderful husband and 2 beautiful children so I have witnessed the devastating sorrow of a family missing a wife and mother.

[@bcastle2397]

It was obvious that Baldwin and the other production crew did not take the time to have safety meetings--it would cost them MONEY. Some of the crew pleaded for action and then left when they realized the safety measures weren't being taken and claimed it was a chaotic and unsafe set. Baldwin is unbelievable! He said he had the remaining crew sign a statement denying the unsafe conditions. SURE THEY ARE GOING TO SIGN IT!!! They were covering their own asses and possible lawsuits and knew that if they didn't sign-- that Baldwin could blackball them and they would never get work again. How idiotic!! Baldwin was negligent as an actor and producer and REMAINS one of the most pompous and egotistical actors who exists. I hope the family gets compensated OUT OF HIS FAT POCKETS--even though there is no price you can place on a life. This is so sad.

[@danielabackstrom]

Didn't Baldwin say it took him 45 min to an hour to understand that a live bullet had been fired at Halyna and Joel? Did he really not understand what "I've been hit" and "ow" referred to???

[@kateashby3066]

Brandon Lee was killed by a gun and it had nothing to do with a live round. In his case the gun did NOT have live ammo- it malfunctioned and he was close enough where whatever spat out if the barrel- was deadly. So Baldwin likely thought it was some malfunction and not a bullet.

[@FanAstraea]

I worked as a paralegal in occupational safety regulatory compliance for 13 years. I learned that catastrophic accidents don't happen without a series of preventable failures. I've never heard of a fatality that was the result of a freak accident no one could have predicted. It's been very sad and rage-inducing to learn how this seems to have played out on the Rust set. It's not surprising at all that it points to multiple factors or that a big one was management's failure to take safety precautions. It's management's job to facilitate reporting of incidents and concerns, not to stifle them. This is basic OSHA 101 level responsibility. If management isn't told about safety incidents it's because they've created an atmosphere of "don't ask, don't tell," just like this lawsuit alleges. Baldwin claiming no knowledge doesn't exonerate him, it makes it all look worse.

[@daCubanaqt]

You are exactly right. As an engineer who has done site visits to heavy industrial and manufacturing sites, I have gone through many safety trainings and daily safety meetings. Accidents are almost always preceded by several “near misses”. So sad someone lost their life in an incident that was totally preventable.

[@lburbs]

It’s so great to have you break down these cases for us. Your efforts are appreciated.

[@mondobear22]

Alec didn't need a safety meeting, so, why are so many people focused on such irrelevance? Alec is a 40 year veteran of film. He may well have had a hand in crafting the guidelines. He also knows the rules of gun handling. I don't attend regular gun safety meetings in an effort to help me remember or follow gun rules. Alec knew that taking his gun from an A. D. wasn't in line with guidelines. He did it anyway. Alec knew that the person handing him the gun was supposed to demonstrate the gun was safe. He decided it was unimportant. Then, he proceeds to deliberately break two gun rules: 1) he takes someone's word for the safety of the gun. 2) he then decides not to check his gun (this requires 2-4 seconds). Then he proceeds to break the remainder of gun rules: 1) aims the gun at a person (18" from Halyna's lower chest) 2) places finger on trigger then pulls the hammer back 3) lastly, he does the unthinkable: he squeezes the trigger. He coincidentally did this series of inconceivable actions on the same day that no armourer was present and the monitor was missing which put Halyna right in front of him. Lastly, what's the personality profile of this guy? Would any other movie star point then fire an unchecked gun at someone? Tom Cruise? Cage, Clooney, Pitt, Damon, ... anybody? How about Tom Hanks? It's something to consider that only one famous actor fits the profile of someone who could shoot someone "accidentally" on s film set. I'd bet everything I have that Clint Eastwood has never pointed then fired an unchecked gun at someone over his 60 plus year career.

[@FIRING_BLIND]

He cannot check the gun. That goes against the rules of filming with a firearm. If he checks the gun, then the armorer has to take it again and recheck it to make sure he put it back together correctly. The rules for filming with a firearm are slightly different from any other firearm operation. If an actor is told the gun is cold (by the armorer), then they are not supposed to have to worry about rules like "always treat it like it's loaded" or "don't ever point it at a person"...because sometimes the scene requires them to point it at someone, or at the camera. Alex Baldwin is responsible. But mainly because he was a producer, and didn't ensure his film set was following industry standards.

[@DaniAlexandria]

44:10 the "Awesome Sounds good" to me looks and sounds like a response to "and wrap should be like 30-45 i think". it looks like the person responding was asking if they meant accidental discharge of firearms and then responding to the wrap time not that they think the accidental discharges were awesome or good.

[@tonimfuller]

Agreed 100%. Those texts also need more context. Would be nice to see the flow of the messages before/after and in between, assuming there were any other messages send.

[@mwillis7791]

That reenactment, while rather dramatic in some parts, was very well done and a very clear visual and explanation.

[@maesonc]

The demonstration that a weapon is clear and safe is standard in any environment involving firearms regardless of whether you’re on a film set or not. In the military we always demonstrate that the magazine is removed, the chamber is empty, and the safety is on before issuing a weapon to someone. This applies even when removing the weapon from the armory first thing in the morning even though it was cleared before being placed in there. The fact that they skipped this basic step is beyond negligent.

[@marysmith3057]

Reminds me of OSHA; their rules are written in blood. These industry standards are written in blood. I'd be surprised if this case doesn't lead to further change in the industry to prevent further tragedy.

[@call132]

Those rules already exist. Doesn’t help if they don’t follow them I haven’t worked in the industry in 20 years and can tell you 3 people in lots of trouble, ad , armorer and production manager. Based off the way it used to be done, because these 3 regardless of union or non union, know exactly how to handle scenes with firearms.

[@thegiftheart4540]

Here's my current theory: the reason the prop company owner was talking trash about Gutierrez was that he, his gf, and sister were planning to set up the armorer so she'd be fired. Then the particular demon who looks after muddles took the wheel.

Even George Clooney spoke out about the ridiculous idea of not checking a gun or having the hired armorer do so before actor handles firearm. It would've taken how many minutes to take out, look at the bullets and shake each one?

"...there are no safety meetings these days..." I'd be interested to know if that was actually a statement from the client or an assumption from the attorney. I've worked on multiple sets as an extra, and every single show I've worked on had safety meetings when a gun was involved (real or fake) as well as other potentially dangerous things on set. Multiple other commentors, who have worked in Hollywood, have said this as well. Based on first hand reports, there were obviously none on this show, but it's by no means applicable to the entirety of Hollywood.

[@kimba3339]

I think Alec being a hothead, has an intimidating presence to him. I think the assistant who handed him the gun was intimidated of Baldwin and did what Alec asked him to do. Others probably did the same where Alec was concerned and broke protocol for this reason.

[@MollyZelko2.0]

Haha I worked on Real World Chicago for the General Contractor. Small world. Very small interior build-out for what we were used to and yes, weekly safety meetings at a minimum. Our bigger projects included an on-site safety manager. Maybe that’s what these movies need to oversee these kinds of messes and ensure they don’t ever occur again.

There have been countless other actors and crew confirming (in interviews and the comments section of previous videos) that safety meetings are prevalent.

[@Amarianee]

5:57 any revolver can be fired without pulling the trigger. That's the entire point of the hammer (which should lock when pulled back all the way) because the hammer is what actually causes the gun to fire. If you pull it back partially and it doesn't lock, the hammer is going to hit the primer causing the weapon to discharge. It's not complicated and honestly doesn't need "investigation to determine if it's possible." 🙄 I mean, I get it, for solid investigative purposes; they want to have all the proof to have a solid case, but that specific statement is silly. The original gun isn't even needed to determine this either. It applies to pretty much every revolver. The trigger is just there to cause the hammer to snap back.

[@olhydra]

That not true. Many people have demonstrated this with revolvers very similar to the one in this case. Releasing the hammer is NOT enough to fire a round without the trigger being pulled, but it is VERY easy to pull the trigger a tiny bit without realizing it if your finger is on it, which is likely what happened here.

[@Amarianee]

@@olhydra Do you not understand how a revolver works? What I said is true. That is literally how a revolver works and what happens when the trigger is pulled. If you pull the hammer back far enough without locking it in place, it has the same amount of force as if you had pulled the trigger. The hammer is what fires the round because it's what hits the primer on the bullet. There's a risk of it firing (depending on the bullet and the amount of tension on the hammer) even if you don't pull the hammer back that far. This is the whole reason why people carefully reset the trigger - even with hand guns.

[@kaml284]

@@Amarianee No, the hammer will go into half cock before it pulls back far enough to fire the round. You're the one who doesn't know how revolvers work.

[@ronaldjeffrey8712]

@@Amarianee Sorry but the people here who don't understand how a revolver works are you and the district attorney. First off ther are a series of notchs that the hammer engages with as it is pulled back. If released prematurely each notch will catch the hammer preventing it from falling any farther. On top of that as the hammer is being drawn back the cylinder is revolving into firing position (thus the term Revolver) if the hammer is released prior to being pulled the whole way back the cylinder won't be properly indexed and a primer won't be in position under the hammer. Ther are several videos on KZbin explaining this, there are also several contradicting it. However in those that contradict the process there are glaring errors. In one you can clearly see that the trigger is being held back with a rubber band in several others they are using a modern reproduction firearm which features a transfer bar safety system. A gun using this system is capable of allowing the hammer to drop from a half cock position but the gun can't be discharged not only because the cylinder isn't properly indexed but because the transfer bar won't engage unless the trigger is pulled.

@@angelipie2592 If he were only an actor, ensuring the safety of the set as a whole (which is what this suit is ultimately about) would not fall under his direct duties. If a chemical plant explodes because one employee opens the wrong set of valves, it's the chemical plant that gets sued, not the employee (even if the employee survived). When someone is an employee, some of their actions/inactions while on the site can be attributed to the company. The key is whether the behavior is reflective of company practices or deviant of those practices. (Quick note: wrongful death suits are typically divided into percentages of fault between different accused parties.) Put simply, if Baldwin were only an actor, his personal actions would be a much smaller percentage in this wrongful death suit than in the current situation. So while he would be included, he wouldn't be as big of a piece.

He'd likely still be able to be charged for unintentional murder aka man manslaughter. The other people in charge of checking the weapons would probably be charged (and might be being) with 2nd degree because it's flat out negligence that was 100% avoidable had they not neglected their duties.

Speculation of course and I could be totally wrong but it would be interesting to know first if the one Alec had was tampered with and then see if the other guns on set had been tampered with as well which could be more evidence of sabotage.

He was responsible for checking the gun himself no matter who or what was told about the gun he's responsible and failed. He's going to go down.

[@cherylcorbett5829]

@@MsTammi125 I definitely agree with that! He was the last line of defense on that. They are taught to never aim a gun at someone, treat it as if it is loaded, and he was supposed to inspect it himself as well per the rules when it was put in his hand. Also, if they were just running angles, it should have never been loaded with anything at that moment anyway.

[@kateashby3066]

Dude, there were a bunch of actors in set who needed to shoot for their role and none of them were using safety measures. This entire set was a joke!

[@wavehaven1]

He can practice their lines over and over and over to get it absolutly right, but not check a real gun over and over. Like a ship...the Captain is ultimately responsible for the safety of crew and vessel...so help him God.

It's good to hear Halyna's family is suing Alec. He's a shamless liar: "I'm not guilty." Wrong, imho. Let a jury decide.

[@susanw9111]

Have you heard the DAs office is saying they tested the same scenario and agree with Alec baldwins statement that the gun fired without him pulling the trigger? If that’s the case I don’t think he will be found guilty of anything

[@annajacob7981]

@@susanw9111 If Alec had attended the gun training session the armorer hosted, he'd have known that - for this gun - pulling back the hammer is the same as pulling the trigger. His irresponsible, reckless decisions and behavior killed another human being.

With gun in your hand why would you Not double check its killing abilitty before aiming at anyone? Dumb crap and stupid. Cowboy balwin took it for granted pointing at woman who got killed if that gun was going to be pointed at him would he be saying same crap i think not. More to this bull crap. Maybe some horseplay? He dosen't have the best track record in past with women and temper.

[@sailorpoon]

can you please cover Kim Kardashian’s 150 page declaration??

[@oliviahancook5195]

The Armorer I feel did not have the experience or the temperment of being able to back up the laws and safety rules. The fact that the Armorer did not shake each individual bullet. They also have reports of the workers who walked out said that the guns were used for target practice which means that live rounds were on the set. I think the Armorer is sueing to gaslight. They did have 2 safety meetings but that is not enough. I don't know if Baldwin yelled and cowed some of the crew. But when he is the producer he is liable as well as the other producers. But the laws should be tightened like the crew wearing safety vests and or equipment. This tragedy could have been avoided. A young woman has died because of their neglectful actions and cutting costs.

[@GH-oi2jf]

She was given unrelated duties and inadequate resources to do the job responsibly. Her authority as armor was no reseted. It is sad that she didn’ have the foresight to quit before this happened. She stayed because she was trying to build experience. Now Baldwin and others want her to be the scapegoat.

[@hazelangus]

I really like how this is written. That list of what they say the Producers and Rust Production Companies had a duty to do is completely overwhelming, as it is meant to be. As just a regular human being reading it, it's so uncomfortable. I'm thinking: Wow, we've not seen evidence they did ANY of that, and plenty supporting the allegations that they did not! Of course, that's the whole point - I'm supposed to think the Producers are liable for everything, and that there is no possible thing they could say that would convince me otherwise. I don't even know how anybody could possibly argue against this though - the facts are so damning. Like, just give up. Give up and surrendeer.

[@tylerallen7617]

I've seem multiple vids of people testing out the theory of just pulling back the hammer and letting it go and the gun never went off

[@raw6460]

Funny, the expert I saw going through that type of gun did so clearly I could see myself doing it by mistake. You didnt have to pull the trigger, just let go when cocked and it would go off.Having said that he knows and should have known better, pointed the gun at the ground whilst making adjustments. The whole safety and office politics is a joke.

[@Amarianee]

@@raw6460 Yup. All pulling the trigger back does is release the hammer, which is what initiates the firing. That's precisely why you're not supposed to play with guns (along with other obvious reasons as well), because if that hammer is cocked and released it can still go off .

Personally I feel like Hannah shouldn't be at fault because 1. She did not bring the live rounds on set, 2. She was rushed and who was to ever expect there would've ever been live rounds on set, and 3. It's Alec 's fault for shooting it, and whoever brought those bullets on set is at fault to. Idk why this Case is taking so long lol

[@wmdkitty]

It was her job to make sure there were no live rounds on set. She IS directly at fault for not doing her job.

[@user-qp3pu5yv1e]

I understand where you’re coming from and she’s cute and Alec is a jerk and he shot her and it’s easy to want to make him responsible and not her and I’m w you 100%…then I take my feelings out of the equation and decide as the armorer she has a responsibility and failed at her job many times but to what degree is she at fault? That’s a tough question I’m not prepared to answer and perhaps so many more ppl hold more liability than she does hers won’t even matter if that makes sense.

[@kateashby3066]

It isn’t necessary for her to know about live rounds because you MUST always assume there are, and THIS scenario is why!! This is why the gun is Always checked and rechecked before handing it over, then the next person ALSO checks it! Her ENTIRE job as armorer was to make sure the set was safe no matter WHAT. She wasn’t willing to do that tho. Imagine a police officer who picked and chose their battles and who they would go after based on how they felt uncomfortable. This ain’t hard- if your job is to keep people alive and safe- you must be willing to adhere to that at any cost. Sheish, gen Z’s are so entitled.
