Sure, sounds plausible. He is such a mild tempered guy that I could never imagine he pointed a gun at someone and then pulled the trigger.

reply

you are implying he angrily chose to dangerously point the gun at her in a fit of anger. demonstrate this please lord idiot mean rake

reply

He is untouchable as he is a God ! A true movie star.

Of course there was "no obvious intent to cause harm" on Alec's part. That's obvious. Someone (or more than 1 person) is still responsible though for bringing live rounds onto the set and loading the gun with them.

reply

it sure is taking a long time to charge someone.

reply

For sure.

reply

The issue is it's probably not clear who brought the live rounds. The gun wrangler was clearly negligent, but she was also inexperienced and probably not fit for the job which likely complicates issues as there may not be a clear paper trail.

At the end, it was an accidental death and the parties are all known, it's simply about putting together the pieces. That takes time and good police work isn't always quick and easy.

reply

I'm still betting on Alec for that one.

reply

That's the thing. Obviously the shooting was an accident, he didn't intend to kill his cinematographer and tank his career!

It's just an accident that couldn't have happened, without a thousand kinds of legally actionable negligence leading up to it.

reply

I hope the family sues Alec for all he's worth

reply

Do you agree that what will harm him the most is the fact that he lied about pulling the trigger? His claim that the gun malfunctioned was ridiculous and has been disproven by the FBI who tested the gun. He lost all credibility when he lied about that.

reply

No surprise there.

reply

Man, this guy sounds sharp. He taking new clients? I stabbed this guy twice in the face and he's convinced it was deliberate.
