There’s truth to what you say, and I’m not personally a fan of any of the Baldwins, but most of the prosecution of this case has just seemed spiteful and nonsensical to me.
Like, there are cases to be made for Baldwin or the production company to be liable, but they seem to be framing everything as him just straight up murdering the woman, simply because he was holding the weapon. I’d say there are people behind the scenes that were much more responsible for the tragedy than the Actor that was in the scene and handed a hot weapon (including Baldwin, the producer not the actor).
Yeah, agreed that the prosecution is just trying to make a name for themselves by taking on a big Hollywood liberal. If they actually cared about avoiding this in the future, they’d take the producer angle, but obviously they don’t want to set the precedent that a corporation or its officers face real consequences for cutting corners.
