Virtual Legality

RUST and the Abdication Of Responsibility - The Ballad Of Alec Baldwin (VL587)


Listen Later

Alec Baldwin has done the unthinkable, not just in wielding the gun that shot and killed Halyna Hutchins on the set of Rust in October of this year, but in giving a national interview to George Stephanopoulos of ABC News before the investigation has even run its course.
Why would someone do such a reckless thing? Why would his lawyers allow it?
Alec Baldwin has a lot to answer for, as we discuss...in Virtual Legality.
