#17   I was under the impression Ms Hutchins was a kid, I assumed no more than 25.

Halyna Hutchins was the Director of Photography (DP), the person in charge of the camera and lighting crews. The DP has nothing to do with props.

The young person in question was the armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, aged 24. Her father is Thell Reed, a well-known guy in the business. The armorer, along with the prop master is responsible for any guns on set and making sure they are used safely. This was her second time out as lead armorer on a film.

#13  ^ A quick look at wikiwackpedia makes it look like that was fake news.

#12  I saw mention elsewhere that her father is a well-known Hollywood armorer, but I haven't seen any details of this.

#11  I was under the impression Ms Hutchins was a kid, I assumed no more than 25. But according to the article she was 42, so there’s no excuse for her not having full control of the weapons in her charge.

Another perspective.

#8  I guess they didn't attend the victim's funeral, taking the lam to VT instead.

#7  Gotta wonder what was discussed during that dinner.

Hell hath no fully like a woman Baldwin scorned.

#6  "I took her to dinner with Joel, the director"
Then the next day he shot them both.
I wonder what they had for dessert.

#3  "Hilaria" is a fake mamacita. Her real name is Hillary Hayward-Thomas.

Like her moronic bully of a sugar daddy husband's act now that he's gonna pay for killing someone, this little cvnt's entire life is built on lies

#2  I hope he loses every dime he's got.

#1  No rules will matter so long as some arrogant a-hole points a gun at people and pulls the trigger. Baldwin ignored the most fundamental rules of gun safety; he was negligent at the least. He should pay the price.
