Former Fresh Prince of Bel-Air actress Janet Hubert is the latest celebrity to sound off on Alec Baldwin's on-set tragedy involving a prop gun that fatally wounded Halyna Hutchins, the director of photography on Rust.
Hubert took to Twitter to ask followers, "Am I crazy, but my first thought was Baldwin was given this gun on purpose from someone to get back at him for his Trump impersonations? I have never seen prop guns sitting out on set EVER. Then to photograph his pain and give it to the press! Hmmmm, so very heartless, TRUMPERS?"
During a press conference on Wednesday (October 27), Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza revealed that investigators found 500 rounds of ammunition on the set of Rust, including a mix of blanks, dummy rounds, and what appeared to be live rounds.
Mendoza added that armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed stated that she checked the gun Baldwin was using the scene to ensure it was only filled with dummy rounds. She added that she personally locked the gun and others in a safe in a nearby prop truck during a lunch break, but Gutierrez Reed stated that ammo was left out on a cart on the set and not secure. Mendoza added that the investigation is centering on who handled the gun before Hutchins was fatally struck, along with how the live ammunition made its way to the set.
