Halyna Hutchins’ death and the wounding of director Joel Souza nearly three years ago sent shock waves through the film industry.
Prosecutors sought to cast Alec Baldwin as someone who flouts rules and has little regard for safety at the first day of his New Mexico trial in the shooting of a cinematographer.
The prosecutor said behind-the-scenes video will show Baldwin casually disregarding basic firearm safety. The fatal shooting led to the felony involuntary manslaughter charge against Baldwin, the 66-year-old star of 30 Rock and frequent host of Saturday Night Live, that could result in up to 18 months in prison.
The day’s testimony was expected to focus largely on the collection of evidence and the revolver Baldwin used.
