baldwin. all of the details for the death of hutchins is on the table. the movie's assistant director, dave hall, said it was a cold gun holding no live rounds, beforehanding it to baldwin. was the prop firearm holding live bullets or blanks, and what was the situation. let's go in and listen to what they have to say about what kind of charging, if any, will be filed. they said everything is on the table, including the possibility of criminal charges. it could also be civil issues at play here. >> good morning, everybody. welcome to the santa fe county sheriff's office. first and foremost, i would like to offer our condolences to the hutchens family, a speedy recovery to mr. suza, and continued safety to all of the men and women in the film industry. at 1:48 p.m. we were dispatched to bonanza creek ranch. the first deputy arrived at 2:00 p.m. it was later determined that halayna hutchins and joel suza had been shot while rehearsing a scene on the movie "rust." in the initial investigation it w

there is alec baldwin the star of "rust", the film, and there is alec baldwin the producer of "rust", the film. i think in that case, you mentioned what they call the judicial district attorney, in this case santa fe is the first district attorney. she has said they are taking a wait and see approach to see will investigators find. there's also the occupational safety and hazard bureau, osha, they're doing their own investigation here to get a determination of what actually happened. you might see a lot of this to defer to our other guest as well, you might also see a lot of this dealt with by the insurance companies, to be honest. as a workman's compensation issue in terms of negligence and payouts happening from their. i doubt very much we are going to see criminal card charges of anytime against alec baldwin or anyone, but i do think this is going to be a very long process. we've seen things like what happened on the, many, many years ago with brandon louis. we saw this in the film midnight writer with the death of one of its crew members. >> we're actually going to be talking with

likely alec baldwin will not look at charges. there is an armorer, by all accounts it was her second movie she had worked on, she had expressed her trepidation about her lack of experience, and the assistant director who did not check the firearm before handing it over. there is not supposed to be live ammunition on any movie set so the existence of the ammunition, some of which was live in nature, raises questions about why that happens. the cops seized the firearm in question. the ammunition was not locked up, it was available out on the set. the firearms themselves were locked up in a safe. there's a lot of unanswered questions and we're looking forward to finding out what the results of that investigation is. as a side note, if i were alec baldwin's lawyer, i would be very upset. if you're told not to speak, don't speak. and don't engage with the media or the public about this, because there is an ongoing investigation. >> and by the way, with regard to the rounds of ammunition, i believe it was reported 500 rounds of ammunit

so i think i'd want to trace back what was told to alec baldwin. it appears that he was told cold gun. what was told to that person about what was in the gun and anyone else. and so i think there are potential crimes here, if not of kind of an involuntary manslaughter by alec baldwin, potentially by his production company for failing to take due care if it amounts to gross negligence. >> what do you think with regard to alec baldwin, though? i mean, it's potentially he could look at involuntary manslaughter. but you don't think that would be the case even though he's a very experienced actor, one would assume that he knows about how to handle guns properly. but then, again, that does come into the responsibility of others who are trained, they're specifically on the set to make sure that he knows what he's doing with it. i mean, is there anything into how he used the gun? would that have to be something that would be looked at relative to alec baldwin? >> again, all the facts are going to matter, alex. but i think he's less likely to face personal

we are covering the last-minute activity >>> alec baldwin speaks publicly for the first time since the deadly shooting on his set. >> she was my family. she have my friend. arriving to shoot i took her to dinner with director joel. >>> and the trial of kyle rittenhouse following a police shooting. there's already controversy of what those who died can be called in court. >>> we begin with president biden wrapping up in rome. before heading to scotland for the summit in glascow. joining me from rome from kelly o'connell. the president was talking about the supply chain and ending on a very emotional note, his relationship with the pope. >> reporter: this is a conference with world leaders in many ways about the nuts and bolts of complex economic issues and took questions from five reporters. you are right. he was asked about the meeting with the pope and significance to an american president who's kalt lick, the second in the history, meeting with the pope. before the g20 began. there are two heads of state and discussed issues about the global community. but it really became very emoti

in the case of baldwin, who's liable? >> i think the production crew. you should have armorers on standby to make sure the props are not live and there's no live bullets. somebody definitely dropped the ball in this case. i don't know who's responsible, but i would definitely look into it. who had access to all the weapons and who had access to that particular gun. >> i'm really glad we have you because i want to get your take on the brian laundrie situation. still tall remains were found. the lawyer is kind of pushing back on how easily his dad found his belongings which we should say is one day after it was reopened to the public. if you were on this case. would you go about the case at this particular angle? >> the fbi and police were there for over one month and in one day the laundry family was able to locate the backpack and notebook. your can't blame the people for being suspicious. it may be where they always camped, but it's definitely suspicious. their demeanor throughout has been highly suspect. you saw the father mowing the lawn when they're

why did alec baldwin not check the gun before he took it? why didn't he check the bullets and, you know, just a lot of questions. i'm sure they'll figure it out with the investigation. >> when someone says "cold gun," what exactly does that mean? >> there's no bullets in the gun. >> okay. and before saying that -- >> if it's a hot gun, it has -- >> you're going to check that, right, before you have a -- okay. but if there are three guns, as was the case in this, we do know that, in fact, there were three guns on some sort of a cart that was outside of the small church in which they were doing the filming and that's where that was being stored. if there are three guns out there, i mean, you got to check them all. there's no way you cannot go through all of them, right? >> first of all, i would not have three guns sitting on a cart, they'll be with me in my bag, secured, and nobody will be able to come up and look at it. i would be the one presenting it to the assistant director, the actor, any crew member that's interested in seeing it. i wou
