Alec Baldwin 'is going to WIN' Rust manslaughter trial, criminal attorney claims - as she brands case an 'embarrassment' amid accusations armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed 'got high' night before fatal shooting


Criminal trial attorney Sara Azari weighed in on the ongoing proceedings earlier this month, and explained why she believes Baldwin will win his case.

While Baldwin pleaded not guilty to an involuntary manslaughter charge in January, the trial for the film's armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed started last week with prosecutors aiming to portray her as disorganized and unprepared for the job, as well as accusing her of mixing live ammunition with dummy rounds. Defense lawyers said Hutchins died because of Baldwin's reckless handling of the revolver while prosecutors blamed Gutierrez-Reed's accidental introduction of live bullets to the set and failure to spot them. When questioned on how she believes Son was able to pursue a career in acting in the aftermath of his brutal crime, Sara said: 'I think he's a perfect narcissist who harms and destroys people and their souls, but is able to use other things in his life that put a spotlight on him to feed his grandiosity.
