Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire The armorer responsible

Now the idiot “Armorer’s Attorneys are claiming “Sabotage”

That some disgruntled crew member stuck a life round in the box of “dummy rounds”

If this was just a “rehearsal’ as they’ve ALL CLAIMED” it was, why was their a “need” to have fake ammo in the gun ???
And as a “highly trained” Set Armorer, shouldn’t she know the difference between a live round and a “dummy round” ???

I’ll even go as far to say her dumbass and some of the other crew members were probably the ones target practicing with live ammo, before the supposed Rehearsal.

Sounds like more Bullschitt to me and that her Lawyers are trying to cover for her incompetent dumbass.

Gotta create some doubt for the Jury or Grand Jury To try and keep her stupid ass out of Jail.

She’ll be the one charged, if anybody is in a actual Criminal Case.
Like I stated before, Baldwin’s arrogant ass, no matter how culpable, will skate on any Criminal Charges, because it happened in the Libertard Schitthole of Santa Fe. Book it. 😜

Go look at some of the pics of dummy rounds. They even have primers. I could see that happening. And of course, you would need dummy rounds in a rehearsal. They are checking everything. They are setting up the shot. They want to see how things look on the camera and that includes the big pieces of lead in the cylinder.

I guess the questions I would have to ask are about the alleged target shooting and the number of live rounds found on set. Did they actually go target shooting during their down time? How many live rounds were found? If there was a bunch of them, that’s one thing. If there were just a few or maybe even only that one, then that makes sabotage a lot easier to consider.

'Rust' armorer's attorneys speculate sabotage occurred on set in deadly Alec Baldwin shooting incident.

She's just grasping at straws and deflecting.

Had she been doing her job, even the sabotage she speaks of couldn't happen.

She should have personally checked the loads and handed the gun directly to Baldwin with a declaration of status.

By her own admission, she was negligent.

I simply refuse to believe he has never had any type of firearm training, let alone didn't "know" he should check a gun whenever it is handed to him.

Lots of people screwed up. Baldwin's screw up was the biggest. He owns it.

I think "sabotage" is the most likely outcome, there were disgruntled crew members that walked off the job that very day.

Very unlikely.

Very unlikely.

Sabotage is possible, but never underestimate the power of stupidity and incompetence!
The simplest theory is usually the correct theory.
Somebody on the cast, possibly several of them, were using the gun to shoot targets, plinking beer cans or whatever. The armorer, Who’s responsible for the firearms used in the film, was either with them or looking the other way. There had been two previous incidents of “accidental discharges on the set, possibly involving live ammo. There was even more live ammo discovered on the set by the investigators. Incompetence, negligence, stupidity, any and all these words are descriptive.
The armorer, the assistant director, and the idiot who pointed a gun at another person and cocked it and pulled the trigger, each have a helluvalot of explaining to do.
A mother and wife is dead. Another person was injured. There should be serious repercussions for each of these individuals. I don’t know where most of the blame lies, but hopefully an investigation followed by a criminal trial would, IMO, be appropriate.
7mm

More than one person can be criminally liable in a case.
It is not either or.

The production company will be civilly liable, lots of insurance companies will be pointing fingers.

If sabotage, that would be an intentional act, ie murder.

Looks like the armorer's lawyers have submitted changes her original statement:


She's now claiming the gun was left unattended for 5-10 minutes, and somebody sabotaged the box of blank ammo by inserting live rounds in the box. Of course it needs to be noted that she's the one that's supposed to insert said "ammo" into gun, and not leave weapons "unattended" at any time.

When all else fails,,,,,,lie.

As the Set’s Hired “Armorer”, she’s payed to know the difference between a Live Round and the “Dummy Round”
And to keep the Cast and the Crew safe.
She obviously failed miserably at her job.

Like I stated before, a totally incompetent Twit that didn’t know schitt from shinola about guns or ammo. Much less about Gun Safety.
She only got hired because of her Dad’s famous name and previous career as a famous Hollyweird Armor, and Quick Draw Champion.
Or because she was blowing Baldwin. 😜

Wouldn't he be old enough to be her granddad rather than her dad?
