Prosecutor Challenges Alec Baldwin's Claim Of Not Pulling Trigger

Alec Baldwin maintains his innocence

She asserted that Alec Baldwin's claim of not pulling the trigger on the weapon after the incident was not possible based on the evidence.

According to Johnson, Baldwin's repeated assertion that he only pulled back the gun's hammer without actually pulling the trigger was refuted by the evidence presented in court. Baldwin maintained that he released the hammer without fully cocking the gun, leading to the fatal shooting of Hutchins.
