Tarantino Comments on Baldwin in Hutchins Shooting

Quentin Tarantino commented on the fatal Rust shooting involving Alec Baldwin, stating that while the armorer is 90% responsible, Baldwin holds 10% of the blame. Tarantino emphasized that actors should inspect their weapons to ensure safety before using them in scenes. This follows the dismissal of Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter case in July due to prosecutorial misconduct, with the judge agreeing that evidence had been improperly concealed. Baldwin, who faced up to 18 months in jail, was emotional upon hearing the case was dismissed with prejudice, preventing any future charges for the incident. The armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and is serving an 18-month sentence.
