Alec Baldwin literally just shot two people

[acourvil]

The legal standard for a criminal's conviction is "beyond a reasonable doubt." Given that the AD declared "cold gun" immediately before the event, and it seems there are at least 3 people (maybe more) whose negligence contributed to what happened, it would be tough to get a criminal conviction against any individual. A civil action is a whole different ball of wax.

If ol one shot one kill stands trial and gets acquitted, can white people start rioting and looting? We could do something original like White Lives Matter.

So, what you're saying is it's a legal quagmire, but I'm the asshole for pointing out an alternate legal outcome. Okay, I'll be like the rest of you and say he's fucked and I'm overjoyed about it, for whatever reasons you have.

Some folks enjoy being the asshole. Congrats, you found your happy place.

I'm no lawyer, but I do know management can be held criminally liable for failure to maintain safety standards, including failures by employees unknown to them, when it results in a serious injury or death - whether willful, negligent, or turning a blind eye to those failures. Directors and producers are all management on a movie set, and as a collective both on and off set they failed in that regard, with the Assistant Director in particular responsible as it is typically their duty to ensure safety on the set.

Now if a DA is actually willing to pursue those charges is dubious and yet to be seen. Not that I really give a shit, but I'm not holding my breath for someone to be locked up in the end, especially someone having a household name.

 

[NoDopes]

Anyone who says Baldwin isn't at fault is forgetting he was never supposed to point a gun directly at the photography director, let alone pull the trigger. Loaded or not. Irrelevant.

There is a better chance that the production company could be held criminally liable, but when a company is charged, no one goes to jail, it becomes a political/monetary issue. And prosecution of a company is always a political product.

At a personal level, the legal concept of reliance is likely valid, from a civil perspective and perhaps criminal (not an attorney). He reasonably relied on professional experts in gun handling, hired to provide him a prop that was safe to fire on a movie set to do so. I guess you're an attorney and know better than me.

I'm not admitted to the Bar in Arizona, but if you substitute 'car" for "gun" and tell the story.....

.......who was steering the vehicle when it struck the decedent?

It makes not a whit of difference what mechanic worked for what car rental company if you drove into someone intentionally.

This is why waivers of liability come into play.

OPINION

¶ 1 This case requires us to determine whether Article 18, Section 5 of the Arizona Constitution, which provides that the defense “of assumption of risk shall, in all cases whatsoever, be a question of fact and shall, at all times, be left to the jury,” applies to an express contractual assumption of risk.   We hold that it does.

I

¶ 2 Charles Phelps was a professional racecar driver who had participated in more than 100 races at Firebird Raceway, Inc. Before participating in a Firebird race, drivers must sign a “Release and Covenant Not to Sue” (“Release”) and a “Release and Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk and Indemnity Agreement” (“Waiver”). Phelps signed both the Release and Waiver before taking part in a race.   The Release contained the following provisions:

I HEREBY RELEASE, DISCHARGE AND ACQUIT ․ Firebird ․ from any and all liability claims, actions, or demands, including but not limited to [a] claim for death, which I may hereafter have because of my injury, death, or damage while on the track, ․ or when participating in any race activities․

I UNDERSTAND that participating in drag racing contains DANGER AND RISK of injury or death, ․ but, nevertheless, I VOLUNTARILY ELECT TO ACCEPT THE RISKS connected with my entry into the restricted area and with racing.

The Waiver's relevant provisions stated:

[T]he Undersigned ․ HEREBY RELEASES, WAIVES, DISCHARGES, AND COVENANTS NOT TO SUE [Firebird] ․ FOR ALL LOSS OR DAMAGE ․ ON ACCOUNT OF INJURY TO THE PERSON OR PROPERTY OR RESULTING IN DEATH OF THE UNDERSIGNED, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF RELEASEES OR OTHERWISE, while the Undersigned is in or upon the RESTRICTED AREA, and/or competing ․ or for any purpose participating in such event․

EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED expressly acknowledges that the ACTIVITIES OF THE EVENT ARE VERY DANGEROUS and involve the risk of serious injury and/or death and/or property damage.   EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED also expressly acknowledges the INJURIES RECEIVED MAY BE COMPOUNDED OR INCREASED BY NEGLIGENT RESCUE OPERATIONS OR PROCEDURES OF THE RELEASEES.

¶ 3 During the race, Phelps lost control of his vehicle and crashed into a wall.   Phelps' vehicle erupted into flames and he suffered severe burns.   Phelps sued Firebird in superior court, claiming that its employees were negligent in failing to rescue him more quickly from the burning vehicle and in failing to provide adequate emergency medical care.   Firebird relied on the Release and Waiver in defending against Phelps' claims.

STEPHEN HUNTER: THE SHOOTING​

Our friend Stephen Hunter describes the column below as “one more Alec Baldwin piece, this from a film critic and acknowledged firearms expert.” Steve was the Pulitzer-Prize winning film critic of the Washington Post and is the author of the Bob Lee Swagger novels. His new novel is TARGETED, which will be published in January by Atria/Emily Bestler Books and is available for pre-order now. Steve writes:
What did Alec Baldwin know of the firearm with which he killed Halyna Hutchins? The answer, based on his filmography, is not much.
Whether intentionally or by chance, he has had a remarkably gun-free career as a film actor. He has never made a Western. His most recent exposure dates back to 1994’s “The Getaway,” in which he used a .45 automatic, as did Steve McQueen in Sam Peckinpah’s original. However the automatic is a pistol from another era (1911 on) and its protocols are entirely different than the Italian clone of the Colt Peacemaker he reportedly used on the set of “Rust.”"

Not seeing where he defends Baldwin but did you actually read past that first couple paragraphs?

“
Something like this must have happened to Baldwin. The actor, as reported, was sitting in the pew of the church, practicing. He was trying mightily to get the draw-cock rhythm down and that was his focus, though dangerously adding the element of speed. It never occurred to him that the gun was loaded. (Rule No. 1: All guns are always loaded.) He was unaware that his muzzle had drifted onto the camera crew where Ms. Hutchins and director Joel Souza were crouched. (Rule No. 2: Never let your muzzle cover anything you aren’t willing to destroy.)

In practicing the draw-while-cocking integration, his index finger had wandered onto the trigger, depressing it just far enough to bypass the cocking function. (Rule No. 3: Don’t touch the trigger until you’re ready to shoot.) Struggling awkwardly, he released the hammer under the impression he had cocked the pistol. He hadn’t. The hammer flew forward. The gun fired. (Rule No. 4: Always know what your target is.) It is quite possible that absent knowledge of these mechanics, he still believes the gun fired on its own, out of some defect. The defect was his.

Most gun accidents are confluences of unlikelihoods, defying logic and all odds. Just consider the train of “if onlys” that produced this one. But distraction, more than anything, is a root cause. Whatever the legal, professional, or moral outcome, it should remind all shooters, Hollywood or Baltimore or any place in between, to pay attention. Let me add Rule No. 5: When you have a gun in your hand, it is the only thing in the world.”

Sure sounds like he is saying if dipshit knew more about the guns he was using he wouldn’t have accidentally shot two people.

 

[PolarisBreach]

A civil action is a whole different ball of wax.

That's not really the question at hand here. Baldwin is the one that was handling the firearm when the shot was fired. A lot of people saw him do it. He's admitted to it. It's fair to say that Baldwin pulled the trigger beyond a reasonable doubt. If Baldwin gets charged with unintentional manslaughter, the question the jury is going to be asked to decide is if Baldwin acted without due care; in other words, did Baldwin act without the same level of care that reasonable and ordinary person in the same circumstances? Baldwin fucked up three times to produce this situation: he failed to check if the firearm was loaded, he pointed the gun at a person, and then he pulled the trigger. I think it's a tough sell to argue that a reasonable person would've acted the same as Baldwin and done all three of those things together, let alone one of them.

Again, a lot of people on that set were negligent and I think they should all be charged accordingly.

 

[acourvil]

No, the question the jury will be asked is was he criminally negligent. His lawyer will point to the other people who were negligent and say it was their fault, and that it was reasonable for him to rely on “the experts.”. All he has to do is confuse a couple of people on the jury and create some doubt, and there is no conviction.

Don’t get me wrong, I think he (and several others who were involved) are responsible. I just don’t think the way our criminal justice system works is likely to convict him of a crime as an individual, and I think that most prosecutors would be reluctant to press the case unless there is an additional political motive.

He was a film critic, he did that from 1982 till 2008 which would explain his 1994 reference and him not knowing about a movie that came out last year since he has been out of it for over a decade. Now he mostly just writes books but he is very much a firearms enthusiast who is very detailed in his writings.

His book Point Of Impact, beside being turned into the movie “Shooter”, introduced me to long range shooting, handloading, the Winchester Model 70, the .300 H&H cartridge and is primarily the reason I’m on this site to write these words in the first place. Hands down the most costly book I’ve ever read because if it wasn’t for him I’d still have several custom rifles, a full reloading set up and a shitload of components worth of money in my bank account.

Anyone that takes 160gr .267 diameter bullets, splits the jacket in the nose, then shoots them out of a .264 Win Mag to test if it they would hold together in flight, maintain accuracy and rapidly expand on impact while writing a fictional book about the JFK assassination is a cool dude in my book.

I saw Marky Mark in that, frankly as far as movies go I enjoyed him more in 22 Mile with Rhonda Rousey, but I liked Michael Peña as an actor too. Didn't realize he was in Shooter too.

Michael Peña was awesome in Ant-Man, but I digress.

Did you know that The Crystal Cathedral's bankruptcy case involved trailers full of 20' tall puppets made by the same people who did the puppets for Team America?

Pretty hilarious in and of itself.....

CRYSTAL CATHEDRAL MINISTRIES

"This appeal arises out of a dispute between chapter 11 debtor Crystal Cathedral Ministries (“CCM”) and appellee Carol Milner about the contents of seven storage containers. Neither CCM nor Ms. Milner knows what is in those containers; there is no inventory of their contents, and no one has opened them for many years. But even though the parties literally do not know what they are fighting over, they have spent about a decade and hundreds of thousands of dollars warring over the unknown contents of the containers. "
