Actor Alec Baldwin’s attorney shockingly claimed that the gun the actor used when he fatally shot cinematographer Haylna Hutchins on the set of the movie Rust was destroyed by the New Mexico state government.

Alex Spiro dropped the bombshell in the case during a hearing conducted virtually and streamed on YouTube by the court on Thursday.

“I think you should tell the court that the firearm in this case, which is a big issue, was destroyed by the state,” Spiro said. ‘So that’s obviously a problem.’

Prosecutors did not respond to or refute Spiro’s claim, but Heather Brewer, a spokeswoman for the First District Attorney for the New Mexico Judicial District, denied the allegation.

“The gun used by Alec Baldwin in the shooting that killed Halyna Hutchins has not been destroyed by the state,” Brewer told DailyMail.com on Thursday. “The weapon is in plain sight and available for review by the defense.”

The defense’s unexpected statement at today’s state hearing that the gun had been destroyed by the state may be a reference to a statement in the FBI’s July 2022 firearms test report that said they were damaged. the internal components of the weapon during the FBI functionality test. ,’ she added. “However, the weapon still exists and can be used as evidence.”

Spiro added that he would like to be able to take a look at “what is left” of the firearm, if any.

The October 2021 incident occurred in a church building at Bonanza Creek Ranch near Santa Fe, New Mexico, when Baldwin’s gun fired, killing Hutchins and wounding principal Joel Souza.

Baldwin denied pulling the trigger, but prosecutors charged him with manslaughter for firing the gun while pointed at Hutchins.

Hannah Gutirerrez-Reed was in charge of starting the guns. Both she and Baldwin have been charged with manslaughter and face up to 18 months in prison if convicted.

Court documents obtained by DailyMail.com show Baldwin’s lawyers check the ‘not guilty’ box when asked how he will plead guilty.

The film will resume production in Montana this spring, shooting at the Yellowstone Film Ranch.

Baldwin will remain in the title role and will also serve as a producer.

He has always maintained that he did not pull the trigger and that the gun fired spontaneously.

He insists that it was the gunsmith’s responsibility to make sure the gun was safe before handing it over.

However, prosecutors in New Mexico and the FBI say it would have been impossible for the gun to go off without him pulling the trigger.

They say they had seen him pulling the trigger of the same weapon in previous rehearsals and practices.

Baldwin has already settled a civil lawsuit filed by Halyna’s widower, Matthew. His family in Ukraine is now also suing separately.

Alec and the family's nanny were seen today enjoying a casual walk with two of their young children.
