Someone took shells made by a company that makes no live rounds and is described as the dummy rounds of choice for Hollywood. This company brandmarks every one of their empty carts on the back end. Someone took those and reloaded them with a live load and bullet.
And they think they know who did that.
Then the live rounds were mixed in with other blanks and somehow ended up on the Rust set. The armorer loaded Baldwin’s prop gun and gave it to him.
If someone had been electrocuted on set during rehearsal because of faulty wiring, would it be an actor’s fault or the head gaffer?
this is incredible. I've not been following this much at all, but why would this not be the main focus of the case? not to absolve this woman of any guilt, but it would be impossible to tell if she were not used to checking every round (assuming she knew how to do that).
Nice link, pdq! It’s two years old and nothing new has turned up since.
