Baldwin Lawyers Argue 'Rust' Killing Simply Lawful

Is it possible that pointing what one knows to be a real gun at another human being, cocking the hammer, pulling the trigger, contrary to all industry practices and safety guidelines, and without first ensuring there is no live ammo in the gun, and killing someone as a result, is simply not a crime?

Earlier this month the defense lawyers for Alec Baldwin--awaiting trial on a charge of involuntary manslaughter for the shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the movie set of "Rust" after Baldwin fired a fatal bullet into her chest--filed a motion with the trial court essentially arguing that even if everything the prosecution says about Baldwin's conduct is true, it still does not amount to a crime.

In today's show we'll both cover the general legal doctrines that govern in the context of causing an unintended death in the course of mishandling an inherently dangerous instrument, such as a gun, as well as walk through the defense "Motion to Dismiss the Indictment for Failure to Allege a Criminal Offense."
