Grow up, Alec. You are behaving like that orange clown you used to play on SNL.

Alec Baldwin screamed and cursed at crew on Rust set, rushed colleagues' work in a way that compromised safety - then 'changed his story' after he killed Halyna Hutchins, prosecutors say in bombshell new filing
Alex Baldwin was a foul-mouthed bully on the set of Rust and rushed crew members in a way that compromised safety before shooting cinematographer Halyna Hutchins dead, court documents allege.Prosecutors in New Mexico have filed new documents saying the actor's behavior on the tragic set contributed to 'safety compromises' that led to the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in October 2021.
The government's filing is in response to a legal motion by Baldwin asking to throw out the charges of involuntary manslaughter he faces in the killing. He is scheduled to go on trial in July.
Baldwin, 66, had 'no control of his emotions on set,' was 'inattentive' during firearms training and 'frequently screaming and cursing' prior to the deadly incident, according to court documents obtained by People.
'To watch Mr Baldwin’s conduct on the set of Rust is to witness a man who has absolutely no control of his own emotions and absolutely no concern for how his conduct affects those around him,' Prosecutors wrote in the filing.
'Witnesses have testified that it was this exact conduct that contributed to safety compromises on set.'
Prosecutors say they also argue that Baldwin 'shamelessly lied' and changed his story after the shooting.
Baldwin has pleaded not guilty to an involuntary manslaughter charge in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer during a rehearsal on the Western movie set.

They yanked the plea deal before the timer expired. Curiouser and curiouser.
I could see a perfect storm of inflated egos, a kid our of her depth as an armorer and that a*****e being over the top. I've seen similar behavior in high end lawyer'a offices and in a former customer of mine. Sometimes you get someone who is just an ogre and everyone around them is in a perpetual state of 'flinch' waiting for the next explosion and not giving their work the correct amount of attention because of it. That's how mistakes get made.
That said, WTF was she thinking bringing in live ammo? What possible purpose could that serve? I think she and maybe some others were plinking with the goddamned guns for the movie - that's what it sounds like. Stupid and even stupider to mix it in with blanks. They are so physically dissimilar I don't understand how a blank could be confused for a live round unless someone simply didn't look. That's why she got locked up.
