In the "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski" podcast episode featuring Defense Attorney Bob Motta, the discussion centered on Alec Baldwin's ongoing legal issues related to the fatal shooting on the "Rust" movie set. Motta highlighted the potential biases of jurors in New Mexico, a conservative area with high gun ownership, suggesting that Baldwin’s non-gun-owning status and political views could influence the jury's perception. He emphasized the challenge in selecting impartial jurors and noted the lack of detailed information available to attorneys during jury selection. Motta critiqued the prosecution for destroying the gun involved, preventing a defense examination, and expressed skepticism about Baldwin being held criminally liable given his role as an actor following standard industry safety protocols. He contrasted Baldwin’s situation with that of armorer Hannah Gutierrez and first assistant director Dave Halls, who had more direct responsibilities for gun safety. The conversation explored the complexities of the case, including the potential for a mistrial due to a deadlocked jury and the differences in accountability between actors and those responsible for safety on set.
