.AlecBaldwin files 'cross-complaint' against fellow 'Rust' crew members in suit against him
Script supervisor Mamie Mitchell filed the lawsuit, as she was at the scene, standing behind Hutchins when she was shot and killed. In the suit, Mitchell accuses Baldwin of"recklessly" firing the weapon meant as a prop in a scene for the film Rust. Assistant director David Halls, who handed the gun to Baldwin, and armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed are also both named in the suit, which alleges assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and negligence.
Baldwin has filed his complaint against Halls, Gutierrez Reed, prop supplier Seth Kenney, and prop master Sarah Zachry. In his suit, he claims not to have known that the gun carried live ammunition, as it is not the common practice on set to handle live weaponry.“More than anyone else on that set, Baldwin has been wrongfully viewed as the perpetrator of this tragedy. By these cross-claims, Baldwin seeks to clear his name,” his lawsuit read.
Baldwin's filing comes after a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge ruled to allow the lawsuit against him to proceed despite the actor's efforts to toss the case. This is Mitchell's third attempt in front of the same judge, Michael Whitaker, to have her lawsuit proceed, as her previous attempts were dismissed in July and again in September.
