Everybody should have been hyper-vigilant regarding firearms handling in light of all the shit that was going on and obviously that didn't happen.
That being said, despite my personal feelings about Baldwin, I don't think he should go to jail. He will likely be held financially liable to some degree, but he clearly had no intent to shoot and kill a woman who he knew and was probably friends with. And carrying that around for the rest of his life will be punishment enough.

Yeah, some of the stuff I shorthand without explaining. But nothing I've said is about wilful conduct. Baldwin's not up for murder [unless some blockbuster evidence emerges about some reason Baldwin could have done this purposefully]. I'm talking about liability for negligence or recklessness with an inherently dangerous instrument.
