Domspeak Forums Discussions Off Topic & Politics Alex Baldwin Case-Jury Bias

The judge ruled that the fact he was a producer cannot be considered a factor in his responsibility. Multiple jurors were dismissed because they said they had knowledge of the circumstances and could not be unbiased. I couldn't be either. Being told by a judge to disregard important information? Our court systems have never been perfect. But, it seems to be getting worse. I do not believe that Baldwin wanted to harm the young woman. But, as a producer of the movie set, he had a responsibility for safe practices. Even if he were only an actor on the set, it would seem he would have doubled checked a real gun to see if it was loaded before firing it at someone. It is sad when something like this happens and there was no ill intention. But, he should face the consequences like anyone else would have to. Your thoughts? Could you be unbiased?

It is unrealistic to believe that most people do not have preconceived notions about him. He has been making an idiot of himself for years. Then a young girl got killed in a senseless and preventable way and he shirked responsibility. These aren't things people can unhear. They either have a jury of illiterates or liars.

The woman who was in charge of weapons is in jail. No one has answered the question of why there was any need to have bullets on the location or put them in guns. I've only been catching headlines here and there. I could be missing something. But, no one, likable or not, should be treated differently in court.

It is impossible,in widely publicized cases, to find jury members that haven't already read up on information the judge wants discarded. As offensive as Baldwin's track record of behavior has been, I do not believe that it should be held against him. Not liking someone isn't the same as them having committed a crime. My big question here is how possible is it to find an impartial jury?

Agreed about the likability issue. There is no perfect answer for jury selection as people aren't perfect. My feeling on this is that Baldwin is guilty of involuntary manslaughter or negligence of some kind. His going to jail won't bring the woman who was killed back. It may put other movie producers and actors on higher alert.

I guess you don't have to wonder about Alex Baldwin anymore......The judge just threw out the entire case citing "Prosecutor misconduct"......And he CAN'T be tried again....

Another crooked judicial decision....Another liberal whack job let loose....

This Piece of shit should have been prosecuted years ago for his treatment of his own daughter......

In other news:

Rudy Guiliani just had his bankruptcy petition DENIED....(ie: he is not allowed to file for bankruptcy).......So now all of his assets will be confiscated/frozen.....And his NYC apartment and Florida home will have liens placed on them in a couple of days. All of his money in the bank with be frozen....(ie: he will be dead broke)

All so those two election workers (who pulled the suitcase filled with ballots from under the table after everyone left the room) can receive their $150 million dollar judgement....


Btw,

Let's see if we can go for the trifecta......The NYC jury has the Senator Bob Menendez case right now.....The trial that nobody is talking about.....With the bribes, gold bars, money from Egypt (treason btw).....etc....

What are the betting odds that they find this crooked POS innocent too?

Unbelievable that the young woman who was in charge of the guns, on a set he was in charge of, is doing 18 months and he walks. As far as Rudy goes, they are getting by with railroading him. The poll workers in Georgia were openly behaving suspiciously. Even Rachel Maddow was notably surprised that they not only remained after the polls shut but covered the windows. I was watching this live as it was happening. Our justice system has become a joke.

If Menendez walks or gets a slap on the wrist, I can't say it will be shocking. Although they are going after him pretty hard. Didn't they charge his wife too? He should have known you've got to be a Biden or Pelosi to get by with that type of behavior.

Yeah she goes to prison and the actual shooter walks.....Wasn't he the Producer too? Which means it's his damn movie and he is in charge.

Yes, Baldwin was one of the producers.
