Alec Baldwin Adamant He Did Not Pull Trigger In ‘Rust’ Shooting: ‘Everyone On Set Knows What Happened That Day’

etcanada.com:

Despite an FBI report claiming otherwise, Alec Baldwin insists he didn’t pull the trigger of the gun that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of “Rust” last year.

The actor was on “The Chris Cuomo Project” YouTube series where he took aim at the media, specifically at The New York Post and Rupert Murdoch-owned media.

Using a somewhat unusual analogy, Baldwin states, “If George Bush’s mother Barbara fell through the ice on a pond and I waded into the pond and saved life, they’d say I groped her.

They’d say I squeezed her breast while I was pulling her out of the pond. It doesn’t matter what you do – the ones that are out to get you are out to get you.” READ MORE: Alec Baldwin’s ‘Rust’ Contract Protects Him From Financial Responsibility Following Tragic Halyna Hutchins Shooting, Lawyers Say Released last week, the gaming FBI report concluded that the gun could not have gone off without the trigger being pulled.
