Non-musical history for today: 2021 – A shooting occurred on the set of the film Rust, in which actor Alec Baldwin discharged a prop weapon that had been loaded, killing the director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, and injuring director Joel Souza. Baldwin and armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed were each charged with one count of involuntary manslaughter. Gutierrez-Reed was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter but was acquitted on an evidence tampering charge. She was sentenced to 18 months in prison. Baldwin had charges dropped before being indicted again. Those charges were dismissed with prejudice.
