Alec Baldwin seemed in agony while footage of the aftermath of the \u2018Rust\u2019 shooting was played during the opening day of his involuntary manslaughter trial<\/p>\n
The 66-year-old actor faced his first day in front of a jury on Wednesday (10.07.24) in New Mexico, and stands accused of involuntary manslaughter after cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, 42, was killed on the set of neo-Western movie \u2018Rust\u2019 in New Mexico in 2021.<\/p>\n
Looking distressed and tired, at one point he put his hand on his forehead as jurors were shown body cam footage captured by Santa Fe County Sheriff\u2019s deputy Nicholas LeFleur \u2013 who was called as the first witness in the case.<\/p>\n
The clip showed Halyna lying on her back following the shooting, with tubes coming out of her body as medical teams tend to her.<\/p>\n
Deputy LeFleur is heard saying: \u201cOne female shot in the chest, male shot in the stomach.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u2018Rust\u2019 director Joel Souza, 51, who was also injured in the fatal shooting, can be heard shouting in pain and thrashing his legs around.<\/p>\n
\nOne person is heard saying about the filmmaker: \u201cHe\u2019s good. he\u2019s got a (inaudible) shoulder blade (wound.)\u201d<\/p>\n
\nA woman helping Hutchins to breathe says: \u201cHalyna deep breath, deep breath there you go. Deep breath Halyna. Jesus.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nFilm crew staff and emergency workers could be seen in the footage hoisting mother-of-one Halyna up on a stretcher. <\/p>\n
\nFather-of-eight Alec was also comforted by his wife Hilaria Baldwin, 40, in court.<\/p>\n
\n\u2018Rust\u2019 armourer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, 26, has already faced trial over the shooting and was found guilty on the same charges in the same court.<\/p>\n
\nIn her opening statement, prosecutor Erlinda Johnson said Alec had \u201cviolated the cardinal rules of firearm safety\u201d and was \u201creckless\u201d on set.<\/p>\n
\nShe added he also had requested the biggest gun available after he arrived on the set in in October 2021.<\/p>\n
\nAlec\u2019s attorney Alex Spiro stressed in his opening statement the star operated as actors normally do on a movie set involving weapons and said his client had committed no crime.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
