JMO AB is the actor and Producer for the movie and as such it seems like he bears a heavier burden for the actions of the crew. I don't know if he should be held accountable - LE will let us know soon enough - but there were two and possibly three prior incidents involving prop guns. Also, a half dozen camera crew walked off the set before the shooting because of poor and unsafe working conditions.
As a producer did Baldwin have any responsibility to stop and assess what was happening on the set? Legally? Morally? How will the production company's insurance agent view the possible warning signs (IMO) that all was not well with the crew?
I'm not throwing AB under the bus, I'm questioning what responsibilities each individual is bound by when working on a film. This group seemed to be anchorless, not working as a team. The AD clearly ignored the safety and well-being of those on the set. But apparently no one spoke up. MOO.
