Breaking Down Fact VS Fiction In The Alec Baldwin Rust Trial
Jul 17, 09:00 PM
In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," retired FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Robin Dreeke, discusses the Alec Baldwin trial concerning the shooting on the set of the movie "Rust." Baldwin faces up to 18 months in prison if convicted of involuntary manslaughter, a charge others from the set have already faced. Dreeke highlights the challenges of public perception and confirmation bias due to Baldwin's high-profile status and previous roles. He emphasizes the importance of owning one's behavior and credibility, criticizing Baldwin's claim that he did not pull the trigger, which contradicts firearm safety training and data. Dreeke mentions Baldwin's extensive experience with firearms on film sets, dating back to 1990, arguing that someone with such experience should understand that guns do not discharge without pulling the trigger. Additionally, Dreeke points out a critical error by the FBI: destroying the weapon used in the incident, which prevents further examination by Baldwin's defense. Despite this, Dreeke believes justice can still be served due to the overwhelming evidence against the possibility of an accidental discharge without pulling the trigger.
