Prop gun? A prop gun is carved out of soap and painted black. Pretty sure that won't go off. Baldwin likely had a period correct real gun, or a fully functional replica.

A person was killed by another person - Homicide. It may not have been intentional. But at the very least, one or more persons are guilty of criminally negligent homicide - manslaughter. There are very strict safety protocalls that were not followed. And it was apparently not the first "accidental discharge on that set. Not an attorney - but IMHO someone(s) needs to be held accountable.

Okay... Picture this scene: The lead actor feels that the gun he's been given doesn't look big enough for his macho character. The stage gun was only a snubby .38, so he brings in his own gun, which is a 6" .44 cal. The 2 directors were arguing that he can't use that weapon because it hasn't been cleared and the actor gets infuriated and not remembering that he hasn't checked the gun for ammo, in anger points gun at directors and squeezes off a round... to find out it was still loaded and he has hit and killed the lady director, who by chance was pregnant with his baby.
I think that sounds more logical than... "I didn't know the gun was loaded."

They are trying to determine if charges will be filed. They have to demonstrate criminal negligence, the prison acted wrecklessly with wanteon disregard for the safety of others. Press conference to be held Wed.
Alec was practicing a cross draw at the time of the shooting

It surprises me, that the guy is still walking around and has not been detained till the trial like any of us would be in that situation. fact of the mater is that he did either not check the weapon when he got took it, or shot the director on purpose. either way he fired the gun and is the one responsible for it.
