Yes. I feel bad that this happened with him, even if I don't like him, but he helped cause the death of another through negligently handling that firearm.

But he did not intend to shoot and kill Halyna Hutchins, by any stretch of the imagination. The dumbest lawyer in New Mexico could see Baldwin walk. Hannah Gutierrez-Reed will likely be behind bars.
Intent isn't the bar for involuntary manslaughter. The person shooting the gun has some responsibility to safely handle the firearm, regardless of what somebody else tells them. That this is standard practice on set is true, but they do not have different laws apply to actors on a set

As much as I can’t stand Alec he is innocent of any wrongdoing imo. He was not responsible for loading the gun, and I think it’s unreasonable to expect him to unload the gun to check if the ammunition was blanks instead of bullets. Thus I believe a reasonable person would find him innocent of even involuntary manslaughter.

No but circumstances matter, and as I’ve already stated I believe it is unreasonable to expect him to check the ammunition when the set “expert” was responsible for loading the gun with the proper ammunition.
