Date: July 10th, 2024 4:50 PM Author: salmon bateful immigrant incel great opening theme: someone played make-believe with a real gun and violated the cardinal rules of gun safety. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5553292&forum_id=2#47828410) |
 |
Date: July 10th, 2024 4:52 PM Author: Pink Stag Film Background Story I think a reasonable jury would agree with this:
Spiro said that even if Baldwin pulled the trigger, it was not a crime. He said it was the job of Gutierrez and Halls to safely allow an actor "to wave it, to point it, to pull the trigger, like actors do." "On a movie set you're allowed to pull the trigger, so even if he intentionally pulled the trigger, as prosecutors said, that doesn't mean he committed a homicide," said Spiro.
But since he’s a known lib and there are probably a few MAGAs on the jury he’ll probably get several votes to convict regardless. |

|
Date: July 11th, 2024 8:27 AM Author: chrome razzle ape corner Without being familiar with the docket, I’m guessing the court ruled that lying about the trigger point can be one factor. But even that seems stupid- the case is really about whether he knew he hired such retards to be in charge of dangerous weapons that he should have been aware that there was a material chance they’d fuck it up. Seems like Baldwin will have a decent chance on appeal because whether he pulled the trigger doesn’t seem relevant. Of course he’s going to pull the trigger at some point (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5553292&forum_id=2#47830329) |

No hollywood actor has ever checked every single round. Unless it’s a DA revolver, you’d have to eject every single round ffs. Baldwin and every other actor never checked the chamber. Name an actor you like who’s used guns in a Film. HE never checked the rounds. The armorer 100% owns that shit. Libs know nothing about him safety. This is like expecting a tandem skydiver noob to check the harness and parachute. They have no idea what they’re doing and they rely on the experts. All of them. Including the ones you aren’t biased against. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5553292&forum_id=2#47836126) |

Date: July 11th, 2024 8:40 AM Author: nudist plaza deer antler I'm not a lawyer, but what's the standard for how much responsibility he reasonably has here? Is every actor expected to check every round in every magazine before they fire it? Or load it themselves? Is Keanu Reeves supposed to shuck every 9mm blank and reload it before he shoots 1,200 rounds over the course of "John Wick 7: Another One"? If so, is that standard practice? If not, why not? Wouldn't that alleviate responsibility? Who has the technical expertise to set standard firearm safety practices on set? Were those practices followed?
Do actors have the technical expertise and familiarity with firearms to know they should clear it in the first place? Do they all know how to properly do that? If not in either case, whose responsibility is it to inform them?
I have no love for some shitlib fagtor but the links here seem fairly tenuous. |

Date: July 10th, 2024 11:30 PM Author: peach histrionic mediation hospital Oh wow, turns out you're just completely fucking wrong:
"[D]irector and stunt expert Chad Stahelski doesn't use the same type of blanks that can result in real-life deaths like the tragedies on the sets of 'Rust' and 'The Crow.' According to Stahelski, filmmakers don't have to risk the deadly capabilities of blanks, either, since there exists technology that allows for much safer firearms practices during shoots.... Filmmakers like Stahelski, however, argue that a mix of electronic plug guns and CG effects have been able to replace the use of blanks on film sets and 'that there's no reason to have a live firearm on set.'" |
|
Date: July 11th, 2024 1:16 AM Author: charismatic fat ankles The reason to have a real firearm is because the modified guns they used in John Wick that eject actual shell casings are significantly more expensive than OEM guns, plus the cost of adding cgi and sound fx in post.
lol at them using those in some sps movie like Rust. They couldn't even film John Wick 20 years ago without massive liability issues. |

While, yes, there is little gained from dispensing with this incredibly easy and universal-everywhere-else-on-Earth safety precaution (I guess a couple seconds' time), the safety protocols and firearm-safety personnel making these assurances are so STATE OF THE ART that redundant safety precautions would be mere surplusage."
John Wick Director: "Actually state of the art is to use fake guns augmented by CGI; it's pricey, but you also save on armorers, etc."
Shitlib Baldwin Apologists: "Well people have the right to rely on Shit Pure Shit non-industry-standard protocols as well! I mean jesus christ: do YOU not find it to be a pain in the ass to check your ammo EVERY TIME you want to point your firearm into another person's chest and pull the trigger?! For fuck's sake!" |

Date: July 11th, 2024 11:53 AM Author: peach histrionic mediation hospital Nah, bro, here we make up a standard of care out of thin air -- "in the Hallowed Halls of THE THEATRE, it is HERETOFORE AND EVERMORE DECLARED that it is NOT the responsibility of the THESBIAN to perform a basic ammunition check, that little children know how to do, before pointing the muzzle of your firearm directly at the center mass of another person (and not slightly off, as is done 99% of the time because the camera can't tell anyway) and pulling the trigger, and if that means some cinematographer SLUTS have to die (they call them "DPs" for a reason, amirite!?), then that is merely the price we must pay for ART" -- and then dutifully apply that SACROSANCT STANDANRD, without sympathy or prejudice, to the facts.
Why, how would we ever have such films as John Wick if not for this Holy Rule of "you're not responsible for the ppl you point a working firearm at and pull the trigger on"?!?!? Have I mentioned JOHN WICK?! What about John Wick! Why, it would be completely impractical to bring John Wick to the masses working under the Oppressive Regime of "you are responsible for the ppl you point a loaded gun at and fire upon, so you had better personally check the chamber/magazine"! HAHA, I got you there! These Fascist art-Haters are basically advocating for a world without John Wick!
(**sees article where the director of John Wick is like "omg given all the unavoidable close-range shooting our film has, I'd never allow live firearms with blanks on our set; it's unconscionable and you've got to just put in the big money to add non-shitty CG effects and use expensive fake guns where the slide kicks back and ejects shell casings, etc. -- otherwise you risk having a homicide on your set, like that movie, Rust, where there has literally already been a criminal conviction for homicide"**)

-Baldwin was not instructed by set director nor anyone else to shoot the gun when it fired (ie, was not "acting" at the time) |
|
Date: July 11th, 2024 4:47 PM Author: Passionate Chestnut Den because the argument people are making here is "because every time you pick up a firearm you assume it has live rounds in the chamber" which has nothing to do with negligent producing
If you want to make that case, then show that Baldwin hired her, was informed of her gross incompetence, and then did nothing. But no one itt is making that case.
There's probably 15 different producers on the movie and hes the only one charged despite having the least to do with the armorer
Its an asinine argument because the dead woman who was the second director was probably actually the one most in charge of her... |

Date: July 13th, 2024 12:25 AM Author: peach histrionic mediation hospital No, from all appearances the withholding of evidence was pretty bad. It's complicated, but I'll give you an easy proxy to save you the time of familiarizing yourself with the merits: one of the two prosecutors (Erlinda Johnson, the cute GOP chick who gave the opening), when she found out the other (Kari Morrissey, the butch lesbian who "loves [Baldwin's] politics") had withheld the evidence, said the case should be immediately dismissed, and when Morrissey didn't agree, resigned mid-trial in protest.
Morrissey's basis for her view that the rounds were not material under Brady was predicated on Baldwin's stated defense of not pulling the trigger, which, as we all know, was not *really* going to be the defense because it's fucking stupid. (I mean, it's what retard shitlib alec baldwin believes, so they'd let him get up and claim it -- who knows, maybe the jury bites on it -- but defense counsel were clearly going to put on a real defense behind alec's dumb story.) But if you take it at face value, then claims about deliberate sabotage -- which, btw, is still what I think happened here -- do indeed become irrelevant lol.
EDIT: Lessons here:
* Cons are more ethical than libs, who believe the ends always justify the means * Ugly ppl are bad ppl * Prosecutors = shit * If you can afford it, it is well worth the money to pay millions of dollars to a defense team so that they can dump manhours upon manhours upon FTEs upon FTEs into replicating everything the prosecution has done (right down to Morrissey calling Baldwin a cocksucker), finding what evidence has been given to them and what became of it, etc. |

I think the merits matter here don't care which dyke resigned over what.
Edit: so in laymans terms Baldwin is guilty af and his extremely expensive attorneys swamped the state with busywork so much so they lost track of all the evidence from a related trial. But you saying, yes or no, gun to the head (pun intended), the prosecutors deliberately withheld this evidence with malice to try and fuck him? Can I get a clear fucking answer without all the word salad? |

Date: July 13th, 2024 1:28 AM Author: Provocative garnet theater selfie But what is the fucking relevance of the evidence to the case? Wasn't it determined in New Mexico vs Gutierrez that they weren't the ones used on set? Describe the relevance of the evidence here. Walt jr basically said defense forestalled the whole thing by swamping the state with paperwork. Couldn't it be they just thought this shit isn't relevant and forgot about it? I have absolutely no law background and have zero clue what you're saying. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5553292&forum_id=2#47836325) |

Date: July 13th, 2024 1:37 AM Author: peach histrionic mediation hospital I had a long af explanation but then I accidentally closed the tab, and now don't have the energy to replicate. Suffice to say that it's a little complicated, because the theory of the rounds' relevance is attenuated and their provenance can be very credibly questioned. The proxy I was referring to assumed that you agreed that it's not normal for a prosecutor to resign mid-trial in protest over a decision s/he views as unethical.
There's a sabotage theory out there that someone brought rounds onto the set deliberately in order to cause chaos (this is what I think happened; it's like people who throw bricks off interstate overpasses) or to make some quasi-political point (there were all kinds of labor disputes on this set; this theory seems lame to me, but who knows, maybe it exasperated some weirdo's preexisting grievances). The armorer's attorney made this point and was roundly mocked for having "no evidence" to support it, which to me seems to ignore the res ipsa loquitur aspect of this. (What I mean by that is: look at all the ppl ITT saying that it was totally reasonable for baldwin to point a gun at someone and shoot it b/c this is a movie set. What they're really saying is "the protocols in place to prevent an accident have been so refined and are so reliable that the normal rule-#1 safety requirements attendant to firearms need not apply; they have been replaced here with clean-room-type safety procedures administered by dedicated safety professionals." It's a fair question at what point a movie becomes shitty enough to where it's no longer reasonable for an actor (or a producer-actor (!), which to me is relevant, but the judge disagreed with me) to dispense with certain of the normal "don't shoot ppl" gun-safety rules (e.g., SAG guidelines prohibit what baldwin did, and it would also not be seen on a true high-budget film, but there's some evidence that it's standard practice for B-movies that aren't so bad they just paint on CG muzzle flashes). But regardless, one of the major premises of their argument is: it's nigh impossible for live rounds to end up in an actor's gun given the protocols in place. To me, the flipside of that premise, assuming it's true, is that when an on-set shooting happens, sabotage has to be kept in consideration until it's excluded, which normally only happens at the point at which the actual cause is uncovered -- which never happened here.)
Anyway, in this case, the armorer's father (also an armorer, but a real one, not a DEI nepo hire like his daughter) has been using his connections to poke around on set and with the various firearm/prop vendors that sold to the set and try to gin up somewhat-questionable evidence of sabotage and/or negligence not attributable to his daughter, in the hopes of undermining the case against her. I will broadly characterize these efforts as unconvincing at the specific level, but *definitely* the type of thing that a defense attorney would want to know about and be able to work off of, as the theory remains very strong (I still think more-likely-than-not) at the general level. I will note that I doubt there's any evidence out there that's going to fully exculpate the armorer -- her job, after all, literally involves directly monitoring the last steps of the process, not just administering the earlier-stage protocols that keep live rounds off the set altogether -- but (a) it might exculpate baldwin, who has an easier row to hoe here; and (b) the varying cases against baldwin and Gutierrez notwithstanding, baldwin just gets to relitigate shit that was decided in Gutierrez's case if he wants to (and he does want to, as he has better lawyers than she did and much more ability to pay the shit out of them).
Morrissey said that she reviewed photos of the rounds and they didn't resemble the live rounds found on set. I have no idea what means, given that my understanding is that the 6 rounds found around the set varied in caliber, headstamp, age, etc. (they were also found everywhere: mixed in with blanks, one was on another actor's bandolier, the one baldwin used to murder that girl, etc.) But apparently at least some of the distinguishing characteristics relied upon did not actually exist when the actual rounds were produced in court. (This is a point where I fully admit we need more information. Saying "those rounds don't resemble these rounds" without specifying, say, I dunno, caliber (?), is pretty classic NYT soyboy-level understanding of guns.)
Anyway, the prosecutor deemed these rounds to not be "material to the defense" based on the defense being that baldwin didn't pull the trigger, which is so wrong it just has to be viewed as bad faith -- and by that I mean a deliberately snarky/flippant expression of a decision that (hopefully) was not actually based on that analysis. |

Date: July 13th, 2024 5:10 PM Author: Ruddy church I don’t understand how these bullets were at all relevant to the case, let alone evidence of anything. Why should they have been included in the case file? They seem just to be random bullets that some random person insisted on handing in to the police for some unknown reason.

Date: July 13th, 2024 5:33 PM Author: Provocative garnet theater selfie This is absolutely correct. The bullets had 0 to do with the case whatsoever. They were just some random bullets that her father, Thell Reed, got his buddy to deliver to the court saying these were similar to the ones on set. They were previously deemed to NOT be relevant to the case.
Retard prosecutor resigned over the non-inclusion and the judge dismissed the ENTIRE CASE over prosecutorial misconduct. People really jeeped up about the minutiae of discovery law are having an absolute field day about this. But we all know what happened the pros and the judge in blue state didn't want to be tied to this and found a way to get out. |

Date: July 13th, 2024 3:36 PM Author: Passionate Chestnut Den What are you struggling to understand?
The prosecutors (who are obviously biased against Baldwin for even bringing these juvenile charges) deliberately violated their obligations to.disclose evidence to the defendant.
Judge saw.this and said prosecutor acted in such bad faith the entire case is dismissed. Honestly should happen more often and prosecutor s should be jailed when they behave like this. It seems to happen in like 50% or high profile cases (Trayvon, making a murderer, etc) so seems like prosecutors just do this routinely to normal people and dont get.caught |

Date: July 13th, 2024 4:21 PM Author: Provocative garnet theater selfie what evidence did they not disclose? Some pennies found on the sidewalk? There was nothing that wasn't disclosed that had any relevance to the case. The defense argued that the prosecution suppressed evidence from a fringe theory moonshot that had nothing to do with the case, and was even ruled irrelevant in a related trial.

Date: July 13th, 2024 5:14 PM Author: Ruddy church So, to recap — the case against Baldwin was booted because the prosecution was not given the opportunity to examine some blank ammunition that 1) was never on the set, 2) was never in the hands of anybody involved with the production, and 3) not even filed under the case number of all the other evidence that actually pertained to Baldwin?
Can some lawyer on here explain how any of that makes any sense at all? |

Date: July 13th, 2024 5:44 PM Author: Provocative garnet theater selfie Correct but some liberal dykes and latinas used this to get out of a politically charged case they didn't want to be on
The judge was trying to drop this case from the beginning, especially in that she ruled that all evidence was suppressed regarding Baldwin "running" the film including hiring incompetent people and waving guns around and shooting blanks at actors and accidental discharges going off. After suppressing ALL of the context surrounding Baldwin's irresponsible behavior, the judge threw out the entire case because the defendant in a related trial's dad had a friend mail the court a box of bullets he found in his house in another state and the prosecution didn't put this in discovery. Not flame lol. |
