SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Prosecutors have linked Alec Baldwin to an expansive list of alleged failures in firearms safety under a charge of involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on a New Mexico movie set. On Wednesday, a state court scheduled an initial court appearance by remote access for Baldwin in late February. Halyna Hutchins died shortly after being wounded during rehearsals at a ranch on the outskirts of Santa Fe on Oct. 21, 2021. Baldwin was pointing a pistol at Hutchins when the gun went off, killing her and wounding the director. Film-set weapons supervisor Hannah Gutierrez-Reed also has been charged with involuntary manslaughter.
