FBI concludes that Alec Baldwin pulled the trigger on the gun that killed a woman at a shooting

FBI forensic tests have concluded that the gun carried by Alec Baldwin that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins could not have been fired without pulling the trigger.

The reports, to which the newspaper ‘ABC News’ has had access, point out that the firearm used in the shooting “could not have been fired without pulling the trigger.”

In an interview in December with the same media, Baldwin had stated that he had not pulled the trigger. “The trigger was not pulled. I didn’t pull the trigger,” he asserted.

The case was classified as an accident by the New Mexico Medical Investigator’s Office because “review of available police reports showed no convincing demonstration that the firearm was intentionally loaded with live ammunition on the set,” the report stated.

As ABC News has learned, local authorities have not made any charging decisions in the case and detectives are awaiting phone records from Baldwin as part of the investigation.

The actor killed ten months ago, in October, a worker during the filming of his latest movie, ‘Rust’, in New Mexico, when the interpreter was shooting during the recording of a scene a firearm that should have been a blank but that, for reasons unknown at the moment, was loaded.

The victim was the director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, 42, who died of severe gunshot wounds while being transported by helicopter to the University of New Mexico Hospital in Albuquerque. In addition, the film’s director, Joel Souza, was also injured and was in serious condition at Santa Fe Hospital.
