Prosecutors announced Thursday that actor Alec Baldwin will be charged with involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was killed on a New Mexico movie set.
“It is comfort to the family that, in New Mexico, no one is above the law.”
Hutchins, a cinematographer, died shortly after being wounded by a gunshot during setup for a scene at the ranch. Baldwin was pointing a pistol at Hutchins when the gun went off, killing her and wounding the director, Joel Souza. Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza, who led the initial investigation into Hutchins’ death, described “a degree of neglect” on the film set.
The film’s armorer overseeing weapons, Hannah Gutierrez Reed, will also be charged with involuntary manslaughter in the incident, according to a statement from Santa Fe-area District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies. The film’s first assistant director, David Halls, has agreed to plead guilty to the charge of negligent use of a deadly weapon.If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.
