\n\tOn the latest episode of Fail Better<\/em>, David Duchovny\u2019s <\/em>original podcast, Alec Baldwin opens up about the on-set shooting that derailed his career and led to him facing down a potential prison sentence as he went on trial for involuntary manslaughter, telling the host and fellow actor that new information that would have exonerated him would have been revealed in court had the case not been dismissed at the 11th hour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe tragedy occurred on the New Mexico set of the Western indie film Rust<\/em> on Oct. 21, 2021, when Baldwin discharged a prop firearm that had a live round in it, killing the film\u2019s director of photography Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza. Baldwin has maintained that he didn\u2019t pull the trigger on the gun that killed the cinematographer when it was discharged. The actor and Rust<\/em> armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed pleaded not guilty to initial charges, but the young legacy armorer was later charged with evidence tampering, and subsequently sentenced to 18 months in prison for involuntary manslaughter after going to trial.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tBaldwin\u2019s charges of involuntary manslaughter were dropped \u201cwithout prejudice,\u201d but a year later, a grand jury re-indicted Baldwin on those charges, following a new investigation into the shooting. The final twist came for the actor when Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed his involuntary manslaughter case in July. Baldwin\u2019s attorneys said prosecutors and Santa Fe sheriffs had concealed evidence from the actor that emerged in March, after Gutierrez-Reed\u2019s trial; Baldwin openly wept in court as the case was dismissed with prejudice, meaning he cannot face trial again in the shooting.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI think there\u2019s more to come,\u201d Baldwin told Duchovny during their revealing and in-depth interview. \u201cThere\u2019s more to come, but the more to come is now my effort, and it\u2019s going to be undeniably a successful effort, to raise and to expose what really happ<\/a>ened. I was counterpunching. I was on the defensive. I was being accused. I was being indicted.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAs he elaborated on his perspective on the ordeal he endured over the last three years, Baldwin went on to claim that the mainstream and tabloid press \u201csuppressed every story\u201d where he looked favorable and \u201camplified every story that could hurt\u201d him over the three years since the tragic on-set shooting.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe truth of what happened has never been told, never. We have more shit that\u2019s going to come out in ensuing legal filings and so forth that\u2026 These last three years, people have just dined out. Because in this country, when people hate you on that level, they want three things. They want you to die,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\n\tBaldwin then told Duchovny that his enemies are dead set on seeing him go to prison for the shooting and to be \u201ccanceled,\u201d which he likened to being in prison \u201cor being dead because you roam the earth and you\u2019re invisible.\u201d Still, Baldwin was optimistic about his career prospects after the judge\u2019s stunning decision to dismiss the case.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI do believe that, by the communications I\u2019ve had lately, things are coming back my way to work, and I\u2019m happy about that because I\u2019ve got seven kids,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I\u2019ve also enjoyed the fact that there\u2019s so much of this case that is not known because we didn\u2019t have a full trial.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Emmy winner called Judge Sommer\u2019s dismissal a \u201cvery informed decision\u201d but lamented that there was no jury trial. A jury of his peers looking at the facts around the shooting and finding him not guilty would be \u201da little bit better,\u201d as all of the facts would be there to be presented to jurors. The evidence includes \u201ctroves of things to present that [prosecutors] did.\u201d It\u2019s unclear what exactly Baldwin is referring to at this moment in the interview.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe three-year ordeal appears to have left Baldwin exhausted.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m going to take a break,\u201d he said, wrapping up the topic. I don\u2019t want to talk about this for a while. I want to kind of take a nap.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
