General Hospital News – Star Nancy Lee Grahn Demands Gun Ban On Hollywood Sets Following Alec Baldwin Manslaughter Charges

Nancy took to her Twitter account to write, “I’ve a solution re gun safety on movie & TV sets. How bout we get rid of all the damn guns? Are we that creatively stunted that we can’t tell stories without a gun in it? America is gun sick & I’m more than sick of guns. I’m not interested in debating this so like it or leave it.”

Many of her followers seemed to agree with, “That’s why I prefer British detective shows. Almost no guns. Better stories and character development as a result,” along with, “It’s not realistic as long as real life is filled with them. IMO #GH is one of the few remaining soaps due to popularity of mob boss Sonny storylines & all its exciting gunfire over the years. It shouldn’t be actor responsibility, but production.”

Hutchins was shot and killed by Baldwin on the set of the movie, even though the actor maintains that he never pulled the trigger. One of the counts is for involuntary manslaughter, in which prosecutors will have to prove there is underlying negligence. The other charge is involuntary manslaughter in the commission of a lawful act. Baldwin could face up to five years in prison.

Santa Fe District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies said in a statement: “After a thorough review of the evidence and the laws of the state of New Mexico, I have determined that there is sufficient evidence to file criminal charges against Alec Baldwin and other members of the ‘Rust’ film crew. On my watch, no one is above the law, and everyone deserves justice.”

Depending on the type of movie, sometimes a gun is needed for the plot or the killing, Obviously, work is needed to assure safety on the sets.”

So far Baldwin has made no comments about the matter.
