Alec Baldwin pleads not guilty in 'Rust' film set shooting

All right, some breaking news just coming into us. Actor Alec Baldwin is pleading not guilty to involuntary manslaughter charges. The actor and the weapons supervisor are accused of reckless behavior leading to the shooting death of rust cinematographer Helena Hutchins. In pleading not guilty, Baldwin weighed his first court appearance in the case. That would have just been a preliminary hearing where his rights are explained to him. The move sets up a probable cause hearing for some time in the next few months to see if a judge thinks the charges should stick. Thanks for watching our YouTube channel.
