Updated info in the article I linked Monday:
"UPDATE: It would appear that this tragic event, as new facts continue to be revealed, is a pretty textbook case of involuntary manslaughter under New Mexico law. Per the New Mexico Supreme Court:
“All that it is necessary to establish for involuntary manslaughter by the use of a loaded firearm is that a defendant had in his hands a gun which at some time had been loaded and that he handled it, whether drunk, drinking or sober, without due caution and circumspection and that death resulted.”
State v. Gilliam, 288 P.2d 675 (NM Sup. Ct. 1955)"
Also from the article:
"Under New Mexico law involuntary
manslaughter is a fourth-degree felony normally punishable by up to 18 months in prison and a $5,000 fine."
As I opined previously, Alec Baldwin should be warming a jail cell already.
take a deep breath;
charges dropped against baldwin...
who would have thunk it?
liberals are never responsible for their actions, but if he was a maga conservative, it would be a different story... prove me wrong
So, back in October 2021, it was clearly a felony.
Slow-forward to today, this is from the broken-linked article above:
“David Halls, the first assistant director for the film, was sentenced last month to six months unsupervised probation as part of a plea deal. Halls, who handed the Colt .45 revolver to Baldwin prior to the shooting, was charged with negligent use of a deadly weapon.”
So, David Halls, the guy who handed the dumbass overactor the gun, got charged, found guilty, and was sentenced: six months probation for negligent use of a deadly weapon. For just HANDING IT TO HIM.
And now, the arrogant SOB who took the deadly weapon, Failed to check it, and then proceeded to point it and FIRE it AT a PERSON, and Killed her And wounded a second guy, now has all charges dropped?
WTF?
Let this global powder keg light off already.
Society’s “rules” are too broken...
