Alec Baldwin was charged with involuntary manslaughter on Thursday for the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film Rust last year.
Following an extensive investigation, the New Mexico First Judicial District Attorney’s Office issued charges linked to the October 2021 event on Thursday. In addition to Baldwin, the movie’s armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, will be charged with involuntary manslaughter, while David Halls, the first assistant director, was charged with negligent use of a deadly weapon; Halls has already opted to submit a guilty plea on that allegation.
