She's guilty and I think Baldwin will not since he has a better atty. She's the scapegoat.

Believe the gun was a single action with a hammer pin so someone could actually see a round in the gun before firing. Regardless Baldwin should get some kind of punishment when handling functioning fire arms you never never never pass the barrel across or in front of something you don't want to destroy much less pulling the trigger. Guy at the least is an absolute fukking moron.

I am hoping for the same penalty, but I wouldn't be surprised if his Atty finds a way to fight his "innocence" on the court.
