BREAKING: Alec Baldwin trial DISMISSED with prejudice | LiveNOW from FOX 

the prosecution lawyers withheld evidence. so they should be fired.

@@saratullas5509 i agree. A man doesn’t check the ammo in his fully functional weapon and shoots a woman DEAD, leaving two children without a mom. Then he makes the RIDICULOUS argument that “I didn’t pull the trigger.” Sure he should walk free because he is a hateful leftist. That IS your argument, or did I misunderstand your statement. Those little kids don’t have a mom to see them grow up, but, he still shouldn’t have been held accountable since he WAS the one who did not check the firearm and shot her dead. Is that your argument?

And you think that the incompetent (at best) prosecution should lose their jobs. Biden supporter, right?

They need to be charged, not fired…

Because the first rule of firearm safety is simple; Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, until YOU determine it's condition. The condition of being loaded, or unloaded. If you picked up a gun, and someone told you it wasn't loaded, then you negligently discharged the weapon resulting in injury, you'd be charged with multiple counts and convicted. It's YOUR responsibility to determine a weapon's condition.

@@valspals9188Amen. Dude just got away with murder, plain and simple.

@valspals9188 You are right that the first rule of firearm safety is treat every gun as if it's loaded, but that's not a law. That's a best practice to remain safe in normal every day life. This is a unique situation though. When you are acting, you are pretending that you are using the gun. That is directly contradictory to firearm safety. You can't hold that rule to this situation. We realize that acting is simulating life, and acting like your in a gun fight means that you are going to be simulating firing the gun. Which is why the industry has experts who can safely engage in cinematic production and rarely does anyone get hurt. When you hand the gun to an actor who will be using it to rehearse firing the gun, it's not negligent of the actor to pull the trigger or point the gun at the camera. He is relying on the experts to ensure the gun is safe to point and pull the trigger. A movie set isn't your home. The rules are different for a movie set.

@valspals9188 love ❤️ the your righteous answer. One hundred 💯 percent correct forever

​@@valspals9188😢let's say he just got a second chance at life 😊it can happen with God

Hiding for a reason?

​@@OneWildTurkeyThere is no reason to hide evidence other than it damages your case. They are legally required to disclose everything they have pretrial during the discovery phase. How can Baldwin be expected to mount a legal defense when the prosecution isn't playing by the rules?

@@banquetmeal663 Maybe the prosecution didn't want to see Baldwin convicted. I understand that same evidence had already been disclosed in the other trial.

Thanks for pointing that out. Most posters are telling us they have no idea what they are talking about. The prosecution messed up, LEOs as well). Baldwin went to a tv show and said he didn’t pull the trigger. They had it.

@@banquetmeal663 sorry bub, but they did this on purpose to get their fellow liberal off Scott free!!!! Two tier system of justice! This was planned long ago with the defense.

EXSCLY! These comments are mind blowing, I even saw some guy say there’s motive behind the homicide! It’s not the actors job after there’s a whole team taking care of the weapons in the first place. The thing i have yet to see an answer to… WHY WAS THERE LIVE ROUNDS IN THE FIRSY PLAGE

They charged him because when you are in possession of a firearm and a round leaves the barrel, you are legally repsonsible for that round until it stops. Welcome to America 2024: Hardly a day goes by where I'm not reminded that we have two systems of justice in this country: One fo the beautiful people and one for the rest of us. If you or I did that, we'd already be in prison.

Why would an actor, on a movie set, with a paid professional to take care of guns as props, be expected to think he is holding anything but a prop?

Agree! And he shot a woman who wasn't even IN the movie. It's not like she was supposed to get shot in the movie so why in the hell did he aim a gun at her???

Yes. Regardless, it’s obvious to anyone that he never intended this to happen. It wasn’t HIS fault that gun was loaded. Charge the armorer as that’s her job!

Prop is just short for the word property, is doesn't mean fake. The firearm safety rules are universal. Doesn't matter if it's a movie set, or real life. Baldwin ignored the first rule, then broke two more. You MUST break multiple firearm safety rules to result in injury. The first rule; Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, until YOU determine it's condition. It was Baldwin's responsibility to determine the weapon's condition and it was his duty to handle it safely until he made that determination. He was negligent, and it resulted in the loss of life.

​@@valspals9188Based on this no film involving guns can ever be made...

Oh so he's rehearsing squeezing the trigger and shooting the makeup artist and after she goes down he goes and squeezes the trigger on the next person and watches him go down and you're saying that's rehearsing that's a f****** accident where's your head at Up your a**. He committed murder and just got away with it You should be p***** at the injustice of it That rich famous pieces of s*** and that people have privilege gets to buy their f****** freedom. It's just further proof that money buys Justice and money can be used to evade Justice

This was no accident we just witnessed a murderer Walk away clean and clear. First off there was no filming going on he was not rehearsing with his fellow actors he pointed a weapon at a woman squeezed the triggerWatched her go down and then pointed it again at someone else squeeze the trigger and watched him go down Buddy after that first shot you're telling me he didn't know that s*** was loaded in real. He killed that womanAnd try to kill that man. His money and his fame set him free you should be p***** by the injustice of it all. Just further proof how money and privilege Can be used to evade Justice Or buy Justice

B.S. Negligence is NOT an accident.

It was not at all the same circumstances that was a gun that was properly not cleaned, and there was material left in the barrel, which then ejected into Brandon Lee. This was a bunch of morons, shooting live ammunition on a set, and as someone who works in film? There’s no reason to have live ammunition on set, he’s guilty

@@Faceplay2 he's not but the armor is

​@@Faceplay2when was he proven guilty?? Or are we all just supposed to believe you and your infinite wisdom?

@@Faceplay2he’s not the armorer…that’s the person responsible for ensuring there’s no live ammunition on set. You’re grossly mistaken.

The real reason he was tried is because he did such a great trump parody on SNL.

@@lotstododid you even know he had the gun in his hand, pointed the gun at the lady, and yes, pulled the trigger. He was on trial because he KILLED an innocent lady because of his incompetence. Your comment is amazingly deflective. You dismiss on politics, a left wing action. Trump WILL be your President, pal.

Ridiculous.

@Mightiflier She died because of the mistakes made by the armorer. He was directed (by the director) to aim at the camera.. they needed point of view footage from the standpoint of the actor who would be playing the 'bad guy' character who would be shot in the movie. He didn't want to hurt anyone. Baldwin wanted the movie to be made and seen. Now that won't happen, and tragically the woman died. Big difference. Republicans don't like him for making fun of Trump on SNL.

You have to be joking.

Never should have been tried in the first place. Corrupt DA.

You better f-ing believe it! Great result.

@@AngryLawyer87YESSIR

I know! The justice system actually worked. Crazy!

A celebrity nevers loose! Boo hoo

He broke every single rule of safe firearm handling and killed a woman through his negligence. He needs to be held to account!!!

Idiotic statement

@@chuck7299 Yes I agree I thought for sure he would get something never this but it was an accident . I know guns do not go off by themselves unless the trigger is pulled !

@@chuck7299nah. That’s why you hire an armorer for a movie set 😂 so that THEY can be in charge of all the guns and ammo on set

Negligence is NOT an accident. It may have been unintentional, but it was NOT an accident.

This was a deliberate crime committed by the district attorney. Who has immunity btw…

All on the judge.....she dismissed this.

@@littleme3597 The Judge was just following the law.

​@@lindat3607he got a second chance

Whenever prosecutors pull stunts like that it usually means that they never had a good case to begin with. It was the same thing with the Rittenhouse trial. The prosecutor was constantly admonished by the judge for trying to talk about things that he shouldn't have. Things that are not allowed.

Alex Baldwin could have loaded the gun after he got it knowing that the armorer would be blamed for the shooting.I think he framed her.

That’s the prosecutor’s fault. She failed to do her job in a legal way.

@@SynthD The big question is - was the failure intentional?

Her attorneys knew about this evidence so it’s not the same situation

Apparently it was evidence from the Armorers trial that was not disclosed properly in this trial. The Armorer will appeal, but she can't use the same reason.

The prosecution tried to mislead the court by committing crimes of their own.

@@BB4126 like they didn’t know this would get Baldwin off. So obvious, such a PRIMARY cardinal rule that EVERY prosecutor knows. This most likely was done on purpose, or their ticket needs be brought before the bar.

Went to same school as OJ prosecutors

@@Mightiflier All happened according to plan. The prosecuter messed this case up on purpose. Liberal priviledge. A Brandon fanboy and Trump hater will never go to prison.

@@BB4126 why? He should have never been prosecuted!

The Big Guy

Dems keep winning :)

Another cult member. Bless your heart.

@@lucabrasi5070 Thank you! 😘

@@Salish_RedboneLet me tell you this as someone from the South. Bless your heart is not a compliment. It’s an insult in that sense. In the context of this comment thread, the person who said that called you a dunce.

Lol! I noticed that too. Strange! For quite a while, I was trying to figure out who was talking!

Too much botox and or face lift surgery does that.

More like they got caught red handed trying to bring a case to trial they knew they had no business bringing up. The prosecution did all of this for clout.

Delusional

You mess up this bad if you want to tell people, "I put Alec Baldwin behind bars" and run for a higher office I reckon. People are strange and do strange things for strange reasons.

Yep, she was running for Attorney General.

You can't observe those rules when you're using a gun as a prop. If anything, this is an argument that real guns shouldn't be used as props. He was being instructed to point the gun in the general direction of the crew to establish the shot. You can't do that if you're assuming the gun is loaded. If actors were suddenly liable for accidents like this, you'd never see an actor touch a prop gun again. That's why they have armorers.

Movie sets hire armorers to insulate themselves and the actors when there is a problem.

@@WaxPaper I understand during the scene the firearm rules wouldn't apply and I don't want the actor to be held liable. What my goal is for the actor to have a fundamental understanding of basic firearm safety and operating it. If Baldwin was handed the weapon and immediately checks for it to be clear. Then handed the ammunition and inspected it. He would have loaded the weapon. Upon finishing the scene he unloads the weapon and returns it back to the armorer. This would be an additional layer of safety and if it was done on the movie set then lives would have been saved. Instead we had an incompetent armor and a culture were everyone assumed all rounds on set were blanks so everyone just blindly went along not knowing the danger they were in.

Or maybe it's time to repeal the 2nd ammendment and ban all guns

The firearm safety rules are universal. Baldwin ignored the first rule, then went on to break two more. You MUST break multiple firearm safety rules to result in injury. Treat every weapon as if it is loaded, until YOU determine it's condition. It was Baldwin's responsibility to determine the weapon's condition, and it was his duty to handle the weapon safely until he made that determination.

FBI too for destroying the gun

Including the district attorneys office and all staff

Hunter Biden was most likely part of this

"unalive" isn't a word, little girl.

Baldwin was negligent and a woman died. Intent has nothing to do with it.

And he should've done a safety check... He broke every single rule of safe firearm handling and killed a woman through his negligence. He needs to be held to account!!!

@@chuck7299trying to make him look evil

@@chuck7299They hired an “expert” for that. He’s not guilty of trusting an so called expert

@@chuck7299 Like Rittenhouse.

@@professoryodie Incompetent and negligent, not evil.

@@hyeary1 he did not check his weapon and HE pulled the trigger, killing the mom of two kids. Anyone who handles firearms KNOWS you don’t point a weapon at anything you do not intend to destroy if it is a fully functional weapon. So he SHOULD have checked the weapon because HE was responsible. But he is anti-gun so he didn’t follow the rules, and he killed that lady. So he shouldn’t be held accountable, right?

@@Mightiflierit’s a movie set. You’re confusing real life for a dramatic representation.

@@lucabrasi5070 so the Monod small children didn’t die? Are you a Biden supporter? Reality is a tough thing to grasp for Biden supporters. Sorry, nothing personal, just facts!

@@lucabrasi5070 so you are saying that the mom of small children was not killed by Baldwin. Wow, someone did not take their medication today.

@lucabrasi5070 the firearm safety rules are universal. Doesn't matter if it's a movie, or real life. Baldwin ignored the first rule, then went on to break two more. You MUST break multiple firearm safety rules to result in injury. The first rule; Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, until YOU determine it's condition.

I was just thinking the same thing…but adding a chocolate fountain to the menu 🤓

While you'd be in jail. That's great a though, yeah?

Brandon Lee was a completely different event. Nobody on set showed animosity to another. Alex has shown anger to his co-workers. Giving motive. Maybe he will seek anger management now.

​@@oldmangreywolf6892This does appear to be premeditated.

@@peteywheatstraws4909 I have floated that idea too. Alex is insufferable. He can make enemies very easy.

@@oldmangreywolf6892 yeah but he had no intention to murder

@@urbanexplorer3059 Motives are not determined by words, they are determined by actions. Millions of murderers say they did not intend to kill, but they still committed the act.

Agreed

What's the first rule of firearm safety? Baldwin was negligent, it was directly his fault.

​@@valspals9188 It's the armorer's fault as it's literally their entire job to make sure things like this don't happen and they failed miserably

The Armorer was at fault for sure, but to say that then Bloatwin had a responsibility too not just as the one with the weapon and DID NOT follow basic gun safety but, also as a producer. Plus he had everyone rushing about at his beg and call.

@@Schnoz42069 So you're against a safety check. Got it.

They waited for over a year to even file charges on him. They didn't wait on filing on her.

Cheering Baldwin's negligence isn't a good look

yes it does

He killed.

Nope, just free. Those lawyers earned every penny.

The law says otherwise. Due to double jeopardy he can't be retried.

Ever hear of "innocent until proven guilty?"

they can appeal

@@Revkor they resigned

What looks to be intentional is hiding evidence. First time I’ve ever seen is a judge opening an envelope with it.

She died. He pulled the trigger and fired the bullet that killed her. He caused her death, intentional or not.

​@@Annie497-f5x OMG JUST SHUSH UP! HE DIDN'T KNOW IT HAD A REAL!! REAL! BULLET!! IN THE PROP MOVIE!! GUN!! MY GOD!!

​@@athoughttothinkabout6072 1st rule in firearm handling ! Never EVER EVER POINT A LOADED FIREARM AT SOMEONE!! DIDNT CHECK ? TOO BAD SO SAD . YOU COMMITTED MANSLAUGHTER.. COMPRENDE?

​@@terrytillery9295The victim was literally instructing him to point the gun in her direction moments before she was shot. Guns are assumed to be props by the time they reach an actor's hands. If that wasn't the case, you'd never see a real gun used in movie again, because actors wouldn't wanna accept that liability. If you wanna argue "no more real guns used as props," that's a valid argument. But blaming the actor for someone else putting a loaded gun in their hands isn't.

Doesn't matter. Baldwin was negligent and it resulted in death. It was his responsibility to determine the weapon's condition and it was his duty to handle it safely until he made that determination. The firearm safety rules are universal. It doesn't matter if it's a movie or real life. The first rule of firearm safety; Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, until YOU determine it's condition. Why are you against safety? That's why she's dead.

It's amazing how many people refuse to apply logic and accept this simple fact.

It was his responsibility to determine the condition of the weapon. It's literally the first rule of firearm safety. Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, until you determine it's condition.

If you picked up a gun and thought it wasn't loaded, negligently discharged the weapon resulting in injury or death, you'd be charged with multiple counts. You'd also be convicted, without question.

​@@valspals9188 It's the armorer's responsibility.

​@@valspals9188If I was acting on a set and doing a scene where I was supposed to fire at someone, no I wouldn't be held accountable because it wouldn't be my fault. It would be the fault of the person who's job it is to prepare the weapons for filming.

Normally, I would agree, but in this situation, Baldwin picked up a gun while at work on a movie set. Whoever placed the gun there to be used in whatever capacity@@valspals9188 on that set is the person/persons responsible.

Yes it is. The firearm safety rules are universal. Doesn't matter if it's a movie set, or real life. Baldwin ignored the first rule, then broke two more resulting in the loss of life. The first rule of firearm safety; Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, until YOU determine it's condition. It was Baldwin's responsibility to determine the weapon's condition and it was his duty to handle it safely until he made that determination. Baldwin was negligent.

But lemme guess you support gun rights.

He refused to do safety lessons when handling guns. Every gun is responsibility of person holding it.

@@anntares172 Tell it to the Judge! Oh wait you can't.

still was dumb enough to put a real bullet in a prop gun so won’t get another trial since it was her fault she didn’t use her brain

it was her job and she failed.

The person responsible already went to jail.

@@davidrich27*Prison

​@@abbiedwhy you can't say jail?

But he pointed a fire arm and another human and pulled the trigger blanks or NOT it’s dangerous and reckless

Most are Trump supporters that hate him for playing him on SNL. Even Hannah the drugged up prop master was a Nazi trump supporter. She probably planted this whole thing. It’s ridiculous how many people attack this man for playing the role of a real villain!

​@@craigshred13 are you clueless? Does John wick point guns a people and pulls the trigger? What about westerns? Use your head, live rounds should have never been anywhere near the set.

He pointed a gun at somebody and pulled the trigger and she DIED, and you're like, "Well, he's too dumb to realize it's not a squirt gun that can't hurt anybody."

​@@thesisypheanjournal1271It wasn't his fault that it was loaded with live ammo.Great call judge

It’s where prosecutors who commit felonies SHOULD go. But they have immunity…

You got that right!

I'll give you one better. She tried to charge him with Involuntary Manslaughter with a firearm, max sentence 5 years. The incident happened before that statute passed raising the maximum from 18 months to 5 years. Did she think that no one was going to notice?

Judge noticed.

The first rule of firearm safety; Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, until YOU determine it's condition. Baldwin ignored the first rule, then broke two more. He was negligent.

i disagree. it wasn't thrown out because he was proven not guilty. it was thrown out because the prosecutors screwed up. This is the same process that allows pedos and other murderers to go free. Its about the right to a fair trial and the loophole that sets ppl free when they do not get one. that doesnt mean they are not guilty, just that the system screwed up . alec will always carry the stigma of this because of the lack of the not guilty verdict. its the luckiest thing that could have happened in his position because the trail wasn't looking good for him up to that point. continuing hatred is a personal opinion but the flaws in our justice system do need to be addressed. a prosecutor who cant do their job correctly affects all of us, not just alec baldwin.

Not to mention the fact that the Set armorer hand off the gun to Baldwin saying, 'cold gun.' This tragedy would have been averted if Guterez-Reed had done her job.

@@albert-nu3gn It was not she...WHO handed a gun to Alec..she is the scapegoat.

Exactly. This is no different to any other prop or piece of equipment on set. A car's brakes fail? Not the actor's responsibility. A safety mat not properly placed? Not the actor's responsibility. A real bullet in a prop gun? Not the actor's responsibility.

God didn't bless the judge, but check the judge and the DA's bank accounts, I'm sure someone did!!!

💔😢

That’s what I’m saying.

Lame

Don't drag the fire department into your racist shenanigans!

Is that all the hate you can spew out ?

The person who went to jail who didn’t check gun that’s tricky situation still accident not sure how long they got??

It's sick

​@JimmyMorano very very sick!

The girl on the staff was the armorer whose job it was to make sure the gun had no live bullets. She’s also the one who brought live bullets to the set! Should never have been any live bullets there but for her actions.

And due to the prosecutors misconduct and totally malevolent acts the armoorer should lobby for a retrial since the prosecutors undoubtedly committed similar conduct with that case. Should be thrown out.

It was literally the armorer's job to ensure that the weapons on set were safe, she didn't do her job properly. What is wrong with you people!

It wasn't

Gun safety 101 says otherwise.

⁠@@chuckgoodman3828 he was told it was a prop and had prop rounds, you wouldn’t be responsible if you go to a water balloon fight and someone fills one of your balloons with acid the brainpower of some people here is depressing

He didn't check before pointing and shooting. She is dead. An actor of his standing AND producer should know to check a working weapon, regardless. His fault she is dead.
