DA Charges Alec Baldwin!

Santa Fe District Attorney Mary Carmack-Alwies has charged Alec Baldwin and armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed with two counts each of involuntary manslaughter in the shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film Rust. Assistant director David Halls agreed to plea to negligent use of a deadly weapon.

ABC News’ Dan Abrams reports that the maximum sentence for involuntary manslaughter in New Mexico is 18 months, although the DA’s office added firearm enhancement to one of the charges, which would extend the sentence by a mandatory five years. The DA’s office said, “The evidence clearly shows a pattern of criminal disregard for safety on the Rust film set. In New Mexico, there’s no room for film sets that don’t take our commitment to gun safety and public safety seriously.” Here’s more from ABC News.

The legal team from the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), featuring former President Trump counsel Jay Sekulow, brings more in-depth analysis of the charges.

Alec Baldwin Charges Looming

Up to four individuals, including the actor Alec Baldwin, could face criminal charges in connection with the shooting death of cinematographer Halnya Hutchins. First Judicial District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies, based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is seeking more than half a million dollars to pay the costs of investigating and prosecuting these cases.

In a letter obtained by the Los Angeles Times, the DA specified that the four individuals could face homicide charges as well as gun violations. The charges stem from the death of Hutchins on the set of Rust.

The Western was being shot just outside the city of Santa Fe when Baldwin allegedly fired a prop gun point-blank at Hutchins. Director Joel Souza was also wounded in the blast on Oct. 21, 2021. More from The Quartering.
