I don't think I can imagine anything more absurd than this trial.

[@SL1PSTAR]

Same as some of these comments. Crazy.

[@gypsysong5400]

Why is the actor on trial he never loaded the gun

[@rupertjpb]

Am I missing something.. how can this trial actually be happening

[@grahamsmith2753]

This may be a dumb question, but can somebody explain to me why there were any live rounds on the set? How do they serve any purpose whatsoever?

[@markhall5776]

He sure did a lot of fiddling with that gun under his jacket , before he pulled gun out and pulled the trigger off script

[@MariGolds2]

​@Wassup-Docas is par for the course in Hollywood

[@headhunter_4209]

Also, the government after in rehearsal, not when the camera rolling

[@robin-kq7un]

Oh come ON! Ok, Baldwin may have been messing about with a gun on the set (tell me no actor has ever done that before!) but how could he have possibly known that the gun contained a live round? What, he knew but decided to fire it anyway? LOL, no way! He will inevitably be found not guilty, the trial will cost a fortune and the only benificiaries will be the lawyers - as usual.

Actors are so full of their own self importance

[@lindanoble7047]

Hasn't the lady who was the armourer already been convicted?

[@ViewerNumber9]

Yes. Sentenced to a pitiful 18 months imprisonment. Insulting to the victims.

[@SR-yo9hu]

Lock him up and throw the key away!!

[@harpothehealer]

Baldwins lawyers strategy is pathetic. The jury are not that dumb. The cop responds to a shooting whatever the despatch has said (accidental ) means NOTHING, the cop responds to the shooting, Nothing has been established yet. They must think the jury are idiots. If that is their strategy the state wins all the way. Baldwins arrogance actions to cross on the stand is also PATHETIC are the jury that dumb. Man this Baldwin character comes over as a Bully a narcissist allof that. Come on he is an Actor but his body language says it all. He can't hide it.

[@ViewerNumber9]

Bet Alec is screaming in his head "READS Kari the document READS....not SAYS!!" 😉😂

[@lauraditchburn1857]

Baldwin just comes across as a very unpleasant individual.

[@BrandonHamer-pn8vm]

Of course he pull the trigger he had the gun . . But did kill her on purpose

[@fromtheflightdeck252]

Guilty!!

[@carlosborromeo3740]

A noted trump critic and they now share the same court predicament

[@michaelfaraday7388]

Baldwins biggest disadvantage is his own lawyer who spent far more time blaming others than expressing his clients regret at the circumstances. I'll be surprised if there's a conviction,but if he takes the stand that may change in a heartbeat.

[@SpennyDubs]

Baldwin's new "reality show" is just another ego trip.

[@kirkhunter146]

Because "Crazyland usa".

[@maryclynch9356]

😢Dear Lord Jesus, please release this innocent man. How was he to know that there was an actual bullet in the gun, give to him. Prayers for both families Lord but please, in the precious name of Jesus let this man go home. Amen

[@skymore2948]

oh my. that's spread around away from the point. she should understand the point. she been there for lock him up.not to letting go.

[@faizanmckagan2827]

Since the passing of Larry King who died at age 198 years old. Gloria all red is now the second oldest dinosaur alive

[@yousurfer2]

Defence is really bad and prosecution strong its not looking good for him

[@plasticity1000]

A beautiful soul lost!
