    Feel like you should mention that

    The special prosecutors announced that the same involuntary manslaughter charges against Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the film's armorer, remain unchanged.

      Important to note that the armorer was a scab hired by Baldwin’s production company and that the film itself had working condition problems before the incident took place.

            Just googled it - Rust is produced by El Dorado Pictures, the production company Baldwin owns. You might be thinking of the union workers on the production who had walked off the job the week before specifically calling out unsafe practices among other things?

            I mean... maybe he was legit frustrated with the management he'd assembled.

            Or maybe this is just Baldwin's "damn kids today! nobody wants to work anymore!"
