That's Not My Dope!

 

Speaking through her lawyers one step ahead of the criminal indictment,
 Rust armorer has total amnesia about how the real gun she provided
 "somehow" got loaded with a live round, and ended up in Alec Baldwin's hands.









It's always refreshing in criminal cases when someone with no one else within 100 yards to pin their own obvious guilt on, and looking hard at the sudden realization their fuck up has not only killed someone, but also left them looking at the ass-end of 18 months of hard time in state prison, immediately resorts to the Underpants Gnome Defense.

Because no one's ever tried the "That's not my dope!" excuse, ever, in human history, when it's pulled out of their pocket.

I guess it must've worked for her when she was four years old, so why jump off a winning horse? But we confess, magic hasn't been used as an excuse, to our knowledge, since a celebrated 1992 murder trial in Alabama.



I was honestly hoping she was going to fake a seizure, and claim she was in a coma that day. Or blame Voldemort for using the Imperius Curse on her. Or at least something novel. If only she wasn't five minutes out of puberty, she might have heard about this plan being tried and failing gloriously only about 27,000,000 times since the 1960s.

Maybe next she can tell detectives that it was Elmer Fudd who loaded the weapon in question.


It's going to get even funnier when she "has no idea" how an actual firearm got onto the prop cart either, especially since both gun and ammo were supposed to be loaded by her, and kept by her personally, until actually put into the actor's hands,
every. single. time.

Just spitballing, but if/when the FBI Crime Lab finds her fingerprints on the fatal round, she's gonna shit kittens. And she'll need a better excuse.

While we are second to none in our regard for her absolute constitutional right to competent representation, it's illuminating that all the statements made by Baldwin, AD Halls, the producers, and everyone else on the crew, including sworn witness affidavits, hadn't needed to be filtered through counsel, nor wait a full week before seeing the light of day. Just hers did.

At least we've finally gotten to a point in the case where the experience of everyone in creation is finally 100% applicable. Show of hands, please: How many of you ever found different rounds loaded in your weapons than the ones you put there yourself only minutes earlier, ever (and bonus points if someone else watched you load them too when it happened)?

This twit doesn't need a lawyer, she needs a priest.

You can stick a fork in this one. Book her, Dano.

Like. We. Told. You.

    Nearly 10K views, and not a peep in reply.

    I expected someone to tell me the DP was killed because she knew about Pedo Island, or for the Lynch Baldwin regulars to pull the "Alec Baldwin was trying to kill the director and collect the insurance money", or somesuch other total horsesh*t.

    But...utter silence.

    Now this horse is well and truly beaten into molecules.


    We thus return to the collapse of civilization as we know it, already in a rapidly accelerating progress...

  3. Her daddy is Thell Reed(78), a legendary fast-draw and weapons expert, stuntman and armorer, and trainer to Hollywood back to Gunsmoke days in the late '50s and early '60s through the 1980s, and after TV, he did movies like Tombstone all the way to Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, training everyone from Steve McQueen to Brad Pitt.

    Which unfortunately appends to late-life baby girl not a whit.

    And upon which foundation of nothing, she apparently added only chutzpah, absent any actual firearms expertise, and bare modicum of daddy's patient explanation of the basics sufficient to get her through her last non-union low-budget p.o.s., without killing anyone.

    Low-budget schlock gets low-budget quality staffing.

  4. I've followed this from the beginning. I started out jumping on the SCREW Baldwin bandwagon. Then I read your take on it(with foot notes). Then, every other ranter that I read, was locked into some version of the 4 RULES. Went on for days, even after you posted on plenty other blogs. Apparently, NOBODY ever read your stuff, or knows about your experience. The 79 rules lay it out, not ambiguous! And the hating on you, I don't get it, guess I missed your ass hole phase. Anyway, I like your take on reality.

  5. Pretty sure the SF Sheriff’s department has the appropriate expertise to determine the cause and effect, and the DA will prosecute the case accordingly for all parties involved, regardless who they are. Everything else is speculation. All I can say is the Armorer gal better have a good lawyer.

  6. The funny thing is that, My Cousin Vinny, has some of the most realistic court room scenes on film (aside from the tuxedo thing) so much so that those scenes are actually shown in law school trial methods classes

  7. Fingerprints on the cartridge...
    Funny thing; old habits die hard. There are no fingerprints on any ammo I possess, including anything loaded into any firearm. Paranoid? Maybe. But as I said; old habits die hard.

  8. I read that the firearms were operational models and had been used the day before for recreational shooting in the desert. If so, I'd say there is a possibility that noone checked the gun at all, she just assumed it was empty because she hadn't loaded it, and the actor assumed it was empty because it had been handed to him.

  9. @ASM,
    She denies the stories about the weapon(s) being used for plinking. Consider the source, but I'm willing to spot her the benefit of the doubt. She still only violated 40-60 of 79 safety rules.

  10. The thing about the shooting, as regards to his criminality is that to commit a crime, any crime, two factors, two legal theories, must equally be present, mens rea and actus rea.

    Actus rea is the act itself; mens rea is the intent,and amy criminal intent would suffice, not necessarily the intent to shoot and kill.
    However I don't see how Baldwin had any criminal intent on any aspect of this.

    It's akin to if he was driving his car and his breaks failed and he ran into a crowd because a mechanic who had just worked on his breaks forgot to bleed the breakline.

    Would anyone consider filing a vehicular manslaughter charge? No.
