He's not directly responsible but he was the producer and it's indirectly his fault that the production was so sloppy. It's not murder though, yeah. I wouldn't be surprised if the armourer who gave him the gun was hit with a murder charge though

id think negligence resulting in death or manslaughter would be the worst charge they could get hit with, maybe weapons charges too

The armourer didn't give him the gun, she wasn't even on the scene at the time. She was also acting as a prop assistant because the production couldn't afford a full time armourer, lol. She set up the gun earlier and claims to have loaded it with the proper dummy rounds.

The assistant director took the gun off the prop table, called it "clear" without checking, and handed it to Alec. Of course he should have double checked the gun, especially since calling "clear" indicates you have checked the gun, but he wasn't the one who loaded the gun.

Last I heard no one was admitting to being the one who put the wrong bullets in the gun. If they can't prove that, it probably leaves a buttload of "reasonable doubt" for everyone else involved. Because it's possible their gently caress ups don't rise to the level of criminal negligence if a nefarious third party could have deliberately sabotaged the gun.

Regardless of the legality, I think it's impressive that Alec Baldwin is in a country where he can put a gun in his hand, point it at someone, pull the trigger, then claim it wasn't murder.

"Murder" is a crime of intent and it is probably good that we don't treat all homocides as such.

That said, it's crazy there was no real attempt to bring involuntary manslaughter charges

In the 1600s, a lord tosses a small gold pouch to a serf after accidentally trampling his wife with his horse. The money is a pittanence against the transgression, but the serf is powerless. The lord rides away and shakes it off. The matter is settled.

In modern times, a powerful hollywood agent tosses an EP credit to the husband of a woman he shot point blank in a room full of witnesses. Everyone calls it a huge tragedy on social media. Filming resumes and the matter is settled.

In the year 2400, a galactic senator crashes his orbital yacht on the home of a family of poors. His robot servant offers the remaining family its deepest condolances and says the senator has given the robot to them as a replacement for the family members lost. The senator flies off in their backup yacht and the family never even sees his face. The matter is settled.

Doesn't matter if they do. A few generations down some of their decedents become the poor relations and class struggle resumes.
