Dave Halls – EricReports

No real gun experts were used on the set of Alex Baldwin’s film “Rust”; however, the cart that held the gun which killed Halyna Hutchins was left outside and unattended because of the Covid virus.

Matthew Hutchins (Halyna’s husband) is preparing to file a wrongful death lawsuit against the production. Alec Baldwin states that allegations of an unsafe set are “bullshit”.

Armorer Hannah Reed admits to loading the gun, but doesn’t know how a live round got inside. Her lawyer is blaming sabotage from one of the workers who left because of safety concerns.

Assistant director Dave Halls was fired two years earlier from a set for injuring someone with a gun on a film set. In regards to “Rust”, Halls said that he hopes the movie industry will re-evaluate itself.

FURTHER INFORMATION ON THE DOOMED PRODUCTION OF “RUST”

Alec Baldwin in a roadside interview with the paparazzi announced that “Rust” will not complete filming.

On the time of the shooting, armorer Hannah Reed was not on the set. Assistant director Dave Halls, assuming the three guns laid out on the table had been checked previously, handed one to Baldwin. This may let Reed off the hook; however, I doubt she’ll ever work in films again.

Last words: After being shot, Halyna Hutchins said, “No. That was no good at all.”

Alec Baldwin asked, “What the fuck just happened?”

There’s talk in Hollywood of an outright ban on real guns being used in future of filmmaking.
