Alec Baldwin hit with two counts of involuntary manslaughter in death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the New Mexico movie set

Actor Alec Baldwin has been charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Halyna Hutchins.

The armorer on the film, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was also charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter.

On October 21, 2021, Baldwin fired a prop gun on the “Rust” film set outside of Santa Fe killing Hutchins, the cinematographer.

New Mexico First Judicial District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies announced the charges, 15 months after the shooting.

The district attorney explained that Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reed were “charged in the alternative”, meaning that a jury will decide if the two are guilty as well as which definition of involuntary manslaughter their actions fall under.

The assistant director on the film, Dave Halls, signed a plea agreement for a charge of negligent use of a deadly weapon.

The district attorney announced the terms of his agreement included a suspended sentence and six months of probation.

After the charges were announced, Hutchins’ family thanked the sheriff’s office and the DA.

In a statement, Baldwin’s attorney called the charges a “terrible miscarriage of justice” and said they will fight the charges.

If Baldwin is convicted, he could face up to 18 months in prison.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
