Alec Baldwin Scores Key Rulings on Eve of ‘Rust’ Manslaughter Trial

Alec Baldwin took notes as a judge ruled Monday that video of him rushing reloads and evidence about his 'Rust' producer role will be barred at trial.

Actor Alec Baldwin appeared in a New Mexico courtroom Monday for a lengthy hearing on the evidence that will be allowed at his looming trial over the deadly shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the ill-fated Western movie Rust. Baldwin, 66, is fighting prosecutors’ claims he committed involuntary manslaughter when he pointed an Italian-made replica of a 19th-century Colt revolver at Hutchins and pulled the trigger during a rehearsal inside a wooden church on Oct. 21, 2021. For that trial, one of the questions the jury was asked to decide was whether Gutierrez-Reed acted negligently when she let safety standards slip amid pressure on a hurried set.
