New Mexico Involuntary Manslaughter Law
Created by FindLaw's team of legal writers and editors | Last updated June 20, 2016
In New Mexico, manslaughter is the unlawful killing of a human being without malice. In contrast, murder is the killing of another human being through a willful, deliberate, and premeditated act. The crime of manslaughter is divided between voluntary manslaughter and involuntary manslaughter.
Voluntary manslaughter consists of an intentional killing for which there was a mitigating circumstance which reduces the crime from murder. Involuntary manslaughter, on the other hand, consists of a killing that was unintentional, resulting from either recklessness or criminal negligence.
For example, if a person decided to drive a car blindfolded and ended up in a car accident where passengers were killed, the act would be perceived as reckless since it may be anticipated that death or serious injury would occur from such actions and the person would be charged with voluntary manslaughter. Another example is if the same person, knowing that his car had serious brake problems, allowed another person to drive his car. This may be perceived as a criminally negligent act and the person may be charged with involuntary manslaughter.
Penalties for involuntary manslaughter are generally less severe than other forms of homicide. However, in New Mexico, it is still a fourth-degree felony punishable by up to 18 months in prison and up to $5,000 in fines. The following is a quick summary of New Mexico's involuntary manslaughter laws.

Being charged is one thing...
... being convicted?
We'll just have to wait and see.

No, he won't be incarcerated. A plea bargain will be made. I do have to admit I'm pleasantly surprised that the NM prosecutor is moving the ball forward. (A year long investigation?) This is absurd.

Being the producer, Baldwin should be convicted for hiring an incompetent armorer. However, I think Baldwin will skate, and they hang the armorer...as should be.

Ridiculous decision, if you ask me. I'm no fan of Baldwin's, but actors who are handed prop firearms on set are relying on prop masters to make sure they are handed only firearms with blanks in them, or completely unloaded firearms. Actors are not presumed to be experienced firearms handlers with an understanding of safe handling, beyond what the director and prop master tells them on set.

Involuntary manslaughter is a felony. If Baldwin is convicted, will he then not be allowed to act in any film with a real gun, loaded or not?

Baldwin had no intention of shooting anyone. He just committed an incredibly careless, dangerous act resulting in the death of another person. Therefore the "Involuntary Manslaughter" indictment is correct.
I have no idea what will happen at court. Would not hazard a guess, but you never know about juries.
My opinion.

L.W. What if a prop master had handed Clint Eastwood a SAA during the filming of a Rawhide episode that had a live round in it? Might well have ended up killing someone, too.

TRH - "What if a prop master had handed Clint Eastwood a SAA during the filming of a Rawhide episode that had a live round in it? Might well have ended up killing someone, too." True, but as far as I know, actors have always been instructed to NOT aim directly at the person he/she is supposed to shoot on film. In Baldwin's case, he has made a number of flicks in which he used firearms to shoot other people. I know he had been instructed to NOT aim at the person he was supposed to shoot on film. Camera angles just make it appear that the actor is aiming directly at the other actor. Again, just guessing, that information might have been a factor in the "Involuntary Manslaughter" charge. L.W.

I have no idea what will happen at court. Would not hazard a guess, but you never know about juries. Didn't go to a jury - plea agreement. According to CBS News National Correspondent Kris Van Cleve, Assistant Director David Hall "has signed a plea agreement for the charge of negligent use of a deadly weapon. The terms include a suspended sentence and six months probation."https://thepostmillennial.com/break...n-fatal-rust-shooting?utm_campaign=64487
