Alec Baldwin debacle

[Phu Cat]

If the prosecution were smart they would have someone from the jury demonstrate this

Sure like this idea, but doubt the judge, or the defense would allow it.

I sure don’t care for Baldwin in any way whatsoever and would never come to his defense. But I am sort of a sleuth type and always want to assess “just the facts” and try not to let my emotions overrule the situation.

From the scant truthful details I have seen It seems to me that there is a long line of people responsible for this tragic death.

Yes.. the twit should have checked to see if the gun was actually loaded but then, he’s a twit… totally against the 2nd Amendment and no experience with a gun. The script called for him to pull the trigger. He did. Being a twit he would not even have ever thought to check to see if the gun was loaded, let alone know how to check it…

At any rate, there are a BUNCH of people who are responsible…. from the person who brought a real gun with live ammo to the premises in the first place…to the person(s) who knew it and voluntarily interacted with it.. to the person who could have stopped the interaction with the gun and confiscated it… to the twit Baldwin who pulled the trigger.

OR..maybe whoever loaded the gun and handed it to Baldwin had a personal vendetta of some kind going on.

NObody is going to jail over it. They will ALL get sued for wrongful death along with the studio. Their insurance will pay off. They will all go forward and it will all be forgotten in a few short years …. except by the victim’s family and friends…sad..

Paws, Your whole post sounds good to me. This being the most important: NObody is going to jail over it.

That always seems to be the way it is with the well-heeled. My wife used to work as a 'Girl Friday' for a (very generous) filthy rich couple in Cincinnati. Long story short, her husband hit and killed an alien trying to change a flat tire beside the road while at their winter home in Florida. He never spent one day in jail. Isn't that the way it always is?

Justice is selective.

Refer to the last part of post #102.

​Just saw on Fox news last night where Baldwin has refused for the last three weeks to surrender his phone to the DA so they see what's on it regarding the shooting. If this was you or me refusing to cooperate, we'd be in jail.

So true, so true. Powerful people with deep pockets can hire slick lawyers and avoid justice.

My Old Man would always say......You only need to have 3 Close friends to stay out of trouble And that is.. ..A Cop' A Lawyer and a Judge.......

When the testing on the gun in question is done, so will Baldwin

There is no way cocking that gun would have caused it to fire, and he should have never been pointing the gun at or near any live person

If it works anything like my 35 cal....If its fully cocked and then you want to bring it to Half cocked [Safe Position] and your thumb slips off the hammer it can fire...Ive seen that happen.:shock:

But to be fair your finger has to be on the trigger...

Exactly, Mr Baldwin said he did NOT pull the trigger

I'm actually surprised there's no footage of the whole thing goin down?:Shrug:

 

[Phu Cat]

​Sidecar, There is footage, but Baldwin's attorneys are trying to suppress it.

He lied, he's allowed to lie, if you doubt it, just ask him.

It’s not a lie if the liar believes it’s not a lie!.…

The wrongful death lawsuit against Baldwin and associates has already been filed

Can you imagine being on that jury and hearing him say the gun went off, it was not my fault

It won’t go to trial insurance companies will pay off then everything will be hunky-dory..

I dunno Bob, Baldwin is so arrogant I bet he thinks he can win

My guess is Hollywood is done with him either way, he loses

Can you say cancelled?
