Alec Baldwin‘s lawyer dropped a surprising bombshell this week and the claim is being denied by the District Attorney’s office.
Lawyers in the Rust case had a virtual meeting with the judge on Thursday (March 9) as it gets closer to trial. Alec and Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed are being charged with involuntary manslaughter for the death of Halyna Hutchins, the cinematographer on the film who was killed by a gun that Alec allegedly fired on set.

The gun is in evidence and is available for the defense to review,” the spokesperson said. The rep added that the gun was damaged during testing, but it “still exists and can be used as evidence.” Get more details on the case.
