Alec Baldwin's Role in 'Rust' Set Safety Under Investigation

Prosecutors in the Rust movie shooting case are investigating whether Alec Baldwin undermined set safety on the film due to financial motivations. A judge has ruled that Rust Movie Productions must produce documents detailing Baldwin's financial stake in the movie, as prosecutors believe he may have denied additional firearm training requested by the film's armorer to cut corners on set safety. The records could potentially support the armorer's defense that she was prevented from adequately performing her job due to financial reasons. Charges against Baldwin were previously dismissed, but could be refiled pending the investigation's results.
