World. – On Friday, American actor Alec Baldwin again faced charges related to the accidental death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during the filming of “Rust” in October 2021.
Despite maintaining the claim that he never pulled the trigger on the prop revolver and that it went off due to mechanical failure, Baldwin had been acquitted in April 2023 of involuntary manslaughter charges.
However, in October, the special prosecutors in the case announced their intention to present to a grand jury the possibility of a new criminal charge against the actor for the incident.
On Friday, the grand jury again indicted Baldwin on involuntary manslaughter, The New York Times reported.
Alec Baldwin and the controversy with the filming of “Rust”
In early October, a judge in New Mexico ordered the film’s producers to provide documents to prosecutors that could show that Alec Baldwin, the film’s star and producer, would have higher profits if he completed the project on time and under budget.
The focus of the case is on determining how a live bullet reached the barrel of the prop gun Baldwin was holding during a rehearsal, causing the fatal impact on Halyna Hutchins on Oct. 20, 2021, in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
