Everything We Know About Alec Baldwin's Not Guilty Plea In Rust Shooting Case

We’ve seen a lot of ups and downs in the aftermath of the deadly shooting on the set of “Rust,” but if there’s been one thing that’s remained constant, it’s Alec Baldwin maintaining his innocence. After the district attorney charged the actor with involuntary manslaughter in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, TMZ reports that Baldwin has entered a plea of “not guilty.” 

Baldwin entered the plea on February 23, ahead of his arraignment, which means he won’t need to attend a court date that was scheduled for February 24. However, the judge still had a few conditions for the “It’s Complicated” star to abide by during his release. Some of the conditions include no drinking, no possession of a firearm, and no talking to any witnesses from the shooting. This kind of leaves a blurred line as Baldwin can still talk to “Rust” cast members and people who were present at the time of the shooting, but only in regards to continuing filming “Rust” and not the shooting itself.

In spite of the case, it seems like the show will still go on. In February, Variety reported that the film “Rust” is set to resume filming this spring. Instead of picking up the pieces where they left off on set in New Mexico, the movie will get a facelift and move production to Montana. At the time of Hutchins’ death, the cast and crew were about halfway through filming.
