Alec Baldwin says he doesn't believe he or anyone else will face criminal charges in the fatal shooting last year on the "Rust" movie set -- a tragic episode he says "has taken years off" his life and has cost him professionally.

Lots of denial, and blaming others for the tragedy. All about "poor AB" it was not his fault, and how he has suffered from this tragedy.
My personal opinion, if you are holding a gun, you are responsible for what occurs. Five minutes to verify that the weapon is not loaded, or verify that it is a "dummy" round would have prevented this tragedy. Five minutes. Follow the protocols, if a weapon is on the set, the armorer verifies what is in the gun, and is on the set when the gun is used.
It is not Halls fault, or Gutierrez fault that the protocol was not followed. It lies with the person who has the gun, and also the power to ensure rules were followed. That would mean, the producer, AB.
