I do agree, but the reason Baldwin is even being looked at is because he was also the producer, if I'm not mistaken. So it could be related to some negligence on that end. But yeah, as far as what he was doing as an actor, it doesn't seem like he should have any responsibility.

I agree that the only reason he SHOULD have been looked at is his role as a producer but I don't think that was the case at all. The ad got a plea deal iirc. It seemed more like the police wanted to get a famous feather in their cap and focused on him as the shooter which was obviously bullshit. Alec Baldwin is a dickhead at least and his wife is weird but blaming him for that was dumb from the get go
