“Currently former Officer Kim Potter is being charged in Minnesota with both second and first degree manslaughter for the shooting of Daunte Wright. Potter intended to use her taser on him but instead had grabbed her sidearm and shot him resulting in his death. Because as a police officer, the State of Minnesota feels Potter should have, as a result of her training known the difference, even in the heat of the moment.
If you apply the same logic then it looks like a First Degree Manslaughter trial for Alec Baldwin. Baldwin has been involved in TV shows and movies for over 35 years. In that industry, the deaths of Jon Eric Hexum and Brandon Lee have given rise to safety protocols and instruction that even "prop" movie guns are to be afforded the same degree of safety protocols as a real firearm, at least on the sets I worked OT on. Baldwin has appeared in at least a dozen movie and TV shows where he has handled firearms. Several including Miami Blues and The Getaway in posters show him with a firearm in hand. He has knowledge of and training of the proper use and handling of any firearm on a movie set, yet he chose to ignore them. Add in his years of anti gun, anti NRA rhetoric any prosecutor should be able to obtain a conviction.“
