I saw her tear up a few times but she didn’t seem too moved by the victims. She seems an odd duck at the very least.
Will Baldwin get the same judge?
Isn't Baldwin acting the same as HGR?
Sorry for the family but not sorry for his part in it? Also, Reed was worried about her modeling career and Baldwin complains that the Rust shooting is hurting his acting career.
This whole thing doesn't bode well for Baldwin.... 2 Cents
Alec Baldwin Says He's Been 'Fired' from Acting Job Over Rust Shooting Fallout
Nearly 10 months after the fatal shooting Baldwin is opening up about how the tragedy has impacted his careerpeople.com
*Warning* Get out your hankies.....
In an interview with CNN Baldwin said since the incident he has lost five jobs.
"I got fired from another job yesterday," Baldwin told CNN. "There I was all set to go to a movie, jump on a plane ... I've been talking with these guys for months and they told me yesterday we don't want to do the film with you because of this."
He added that the stress he has experienced has "taken years off my life" and credits his wife, Hilaria, as the reason he hasn't walked away from the industry altogether.
JMO, this is relevant, too. He acknowledges things will get better for him once this is cleared up. But he emphasizes that he's not the victim, Halyna and her family are.

I’m not exactly Baldwin’s biggest fan but I’m still confused about his culpability. Shouldn’t he have been able to trust that the armorer had done her job correctly? Or is the issue that he was ultimately responsible for the actions of the crew and therefore bears responsibility?Will Baldwin get the same judge?

AC "hasn't walked away from the industry altogether" because it is that industry that puts the food on his table and the clothes on his and his family's backs.Will Baldwin get the same judge?

I think that was a hypothetical situation he described - that if it hadn't been for his wife and family, he would have walked away, sold everything, bought a house in the middle of nowhere and lived his life. But he stayed with it. He said, regardless of what happens in his career, Halyna is the victim in this situation, not him. Nothing in his life can compare to the loss of hers and the loss to her family.
It's obvious at this point that the fault lies with HG in not checking the dummies before loading them. If people want to blame AB because he was one of 10 producers and was on the set, again, that's a civil suit, not a criminal charge. He has already settled the civil suit with Halyna's husband and son. JMO/IANAL
That's scummy. I think she deserved the full 18 months, but a music video at a hearing is scummy. And IIRC, there's been sentences tossed on appeal because of shenanigans like that.

Scummy? There was no jury there.
I agree. I don't like Baldwin at all but, IMO as a Soldier who was wounded twice by pyro (once accidental once negligently), gunsmith and gun nut, he shouldn't be held responsible for what he did, as an actor, in that particular instance. The whole point of armorers and safety regs on set is to allow untrained idiots to handle guns in a controlled environment without hurting anyone.
Now his actions when it comes to creating an unsafe environment on set as lead actor and producer? That's where I believe he should be investigated and charged if appropriate.
That's just my opinion. It's not as if the state didn't have a strong case for a max sentence. Using videos with music to elicit an emotional response is just unprofessional for a prosecutor, IMO.

But there's no jury, so where's the harm?

No surprise here. There is a lot I could say here, but it probably wouldn't be appropriate. I know this much, that gal never had her mouth washed out with Fels Naptha soap.
That sure makes you more humble, appreciative, contrite, and aware of the consequences of your actions and behavior. Too bad.

Judges can be swayed emotionally. It's just a pet peeve of mine. Not really important in this case. I'm more irritated by the deliberate use of the word violent in the sentencing hearing. But I'm also pleased that she got the full 18 months.
BUT, I think there may be an opening to get sentenced reduced on appeal because of the music video and calling her actions violent. Both seem, IMO, unnecessary and might be a problem on appeal.

Having a sentence reduced on appeal is extremely unlikely imo. Judges have a lot of discretion when it comes to sentencing. There is no "error" when it comes to sentencing unless the judge violates sentencing guidelines and here 18 months is the max and she gave her that. She will do 85% of the 18 months. Saying that you don't have to shake the dummies and being completely remoreless makes you a dangerous person - definitely qualifies as a 'serious violent offender.' She basically admitted in her jail calls that she didn't have to do her duty to ensure safety on set. That's an aggravating factor and the judge is allowed to consider that in the penalty phase. She didn't pull the trigger herself but she did everything to ensure the outcome. JMO

Didn't she used to have snakebite piercings? I'd imagine she had to take them out for jail, so maybe that's what the marks are?.
That's if I'm even remembering correctly as it's been a while since I checked on this case.

It is the same judge assigned to his case as of now, so will be interesting.

Baldwin will have the same judge.
I think the judge's high level of anger against Hannah was caused by Hannah's total lack of remorse, and her concern only for self. AB will need to display sincere humility and remorse in front of this judge in order for her to go easier on him. He's an actor; he can achieve that. imo.
