Rust armorer found guilty

[greglepore]

He's going back in front of the grand jury. Prosecution did the right thing by taking more time to prepare, I suspect.

[Jeff Higgins]

Prosecution more or less got the defense to show their hand, then withdrew charges. They have used that information to solidify their case.

Good luck to him.
If there's more to this story, and there was some kind of coverup, then let the chips fall where they should.

My thoughts exactly.

[Jeff Higgins]

Prosecution has refiled involuntary manslaughter charges after a grand jury investigation.

There was new forensic testing of the gun and they're now saying it wasn't modified or faulty.

When you eliminate all other possibilities, what' left is the truth.
Alec Baldwin, pointed the firearm at another person, He chocked the hammer and he pulled the trigger. When the firearm discharged, a person down range was struck by the Baldwin bullet and she was killed. After striking the first person, the very same bullet struck another person.
Those are the facts. Depraved indifference to human life, murder two.

[sc_rufctr]

I get it but this could've happened to anyone.

Baldwin pulled the trigger and then lied about it so yes he's at fault but he's not alone.

Just one question: How did a live round find its way into a prop gun? - Complacency and incompetence?

Yep. I have been bit by my complacency and incompetence before but nothing that caused injury or death. My learning experience wasn't as terrible as Baldwin's.

^ That's an easy answer.

Occam's razor
They were screwing around with the gun. Probably drinking and shooting the night before.
That explains the gun.

It doesn't explain why any adult would point any gun at a person and pull the trigger.

Plus, two shotgun blasts should scare off most intruders, Biden says.

"The indictment charges Baldwin, 65, with involuntary manslaughter (negligent use of a firearm) or, in the alternative, involuntary manslaughter (without due caution or circumspection), both fourth-degree felonies."

I'm no lawyer but with his money I don't see a conviction coming out of this. However, "without due caution or circumspection" might be within reach if the prosecution can establish that Baldwin had a responsibility to check the weapon before using it.

Those of us with training know that we have that duty but in gen pop it may not be so.

Jury selection set for July 9.

[Tobra]

Peter, seriously doubt this happens to many here.

NFW Higgins shoots anyone by mistake. Never would happwn to you either

[The Synergizer]

The left should purposely try to break him financially like they're doing with Trump.

Oh wait... he's one of them...
