Alec Baldwin Had ‘Absolutely No Control’ Over His Emotions on ‘Rust’ Set, Prosecutor Argues


A prosecutor laid out the case against Alec Baldwin in detail, arguing that he has repeatedly changed his story about the death of Halyna Hutchins.

Prosecutors intend to argue that Alec Baldwin could not control his emotions on the set of “ Rust,” and that he “shamelessly lied” and repeatedly changed his story after accidentally shooting the film’s cinematographer. The actor is due to go on trial in July in Santa Fe, N.M., on a charge of involuntary manslaughter for firing a prop gun and killing Halyna Hutchins. According to earlier filings in the case, Baldwin was offered the same terms as were extended to Dave Halls, the first assistant director who received unsupervised probation, and no jail time, after pleading to negligent handling of a deadly weapon.
