After Hollywood star Alec Baldwin was charged with manslaughter in the cinematographer Halyna Hutchins fatal shooting case, the cinematographer’s family has seemingly welcomed news saying “no one is above the law”.

Baldwin, 64, could face up to 18 months behind bars following the 2021 fatal shooting of Halyna on the movie set of ‘Rust’, reports ‘Mirror.co.uk’. Filmmaker and mother-of-one Hutchins was killed on the set in October 2021 when Baldwin discharged a prop gun, which also injured the film’s director Joel Souza.

As per ‘Mirror.co.uk’, Halyna, 42, was airlifted to hospital from the New Mexico set but died of her injuries. Both Alec Baldwin and the film’s armourer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed will each be charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter over the death of Hutchins on the film’s Santa Fe County set – a charge that carries a maximum of 18 months in prison.
