Current Events > Man who gave Alec Baldwin the GUN on movie set was a LOCAL cause of the STRIKE!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

The crew on Alec Baldwin's movie set were alredy concerned about gun safety before he accidentally killed cinemtographer Halyna Hutchins and injured the director, Joel Souza when the prop master in charge of the firearm that killed her had just JOINED the crew after the union walked out during the IATSE dispute!!

A search warrant said the assistant director handed Baldwin a gun loaded with live rounds and indicated it was "safe" to use in the moments before the fatal shooting

The warrant said a single bullet struck her chest and then the director on his shoulder as he was standing behind her suggesting it travelled all the way through her body

Unionized workers walked off the set hours before the fatal shooting after they plained about shoddy conditions and another safety incient days earlier involving 2 misfires of a prop weapon

Yet, the unnamed prop master who oversaw the gun used in the fatal shooting was a nonunion worker who was just "brought in on the fly" to replace the workers who walked off set

Unionized employees complained they stayed overnight in Albuquerque, an hour's drive from the set and not Santa Fe because they wouldn't pay their hotels

When they showed up on set, they found out they were placed by LOCALS as it begs the question who those locals were and what training did they have before handing Baldwin the weapon

The gun also had 2 misfires in a closed cabin with loud pops according to a source telling dailymail

Baldwin was seen on his knees crying and on the phone talking to someone after the shooting and was devastated on what had transpired

After the shooting, the armourer took possession of the gun and a spent casing which were turned over to police along with other prop guns and ammo on set as Baldwin changed out of his western clothes and was stained with blood which was also turned over

A prop master tells dailymail if the person in charge had properly checked the gun first before handing it to baldwin, none of this would have happened

The film is set in the 1880s in the old west and has now halted production indefinitely which also starred Supernatural's Jensen Ackles

Legal experts say naming Alec Baldwin is a virtual certainy but charges are more likely to be centered on whoever loaded the gun

Who do you think should be charged?

If the prop guy was negligent it's clearly him

Whoever was responsible for the gun. Unless reported facts are wrong, Baldwin had no responsibility in this. Supposedly he was told the gun was unloaded or with blanks. As is supposed to be the case always on movie sets. They need to find how that bullet made it on set. Real bullets are always supposed to be banned on a movie set for this very reason

Shut down production, i no longer want to see this movie

Time to cancel Alec Baldwin.

I cant imagine itll see the light of day now considering what took place.

The studio should be held accountable for continuing production with a non-union crew brought in at last second. This is as much on them as it is for the guy who handed the gun if not more.

When you read the plot synopsis, it's highly likely that they're never going to continue the project: Alec was playing a man helping his grandson who was convicted for accidentally murdering someone.

Whoever was responsible for loading that prop gun probably. Possibly Some minor charges against Baldwin or others.

Also if that unions allegations are true the Studio bosses should be considered criminally liable. Accidents resulting from blatantly unsafe conditions such as work hours that repeatedly don't allow sleep obviously greatly increase the risk of accidents.

Wait, are people saying it was a real bullet now? Wtf

Yep, the prop gun was loaded with live rounds.

Greed claims another casualty.
