The 'Rust' Shooting Case: Key Players and Conviction Uncertainty

While one letter to the editor argues that Baldwin should not be held responsible if the armorer was criminally negligent, another letter points out that it's not the actor's job to re-check props and compares the situation to police officers using Tasers. The outcome of Gutierrez-Reed's conviction may impact the legal proceedings involving Baldwin in the "Rust" shooting case.
