I heard Baldwin was funding the movie and being cheap. I heard he was yelling at the staff and threatened to have security remove them a few days before the shooting.
My theory is someone didn't like Baldwin and tampered with the gun as a sick joke or a dangerous prank and someone got killed. Which was not the intention of the prank.
The timing works because the gun was checked then they took a lunch break and then she was shot. Plenty of time to tamper with the gun.
Just a theory.
Or...
Baldwin was a perv and did something that turned bad and she was going to tell someone and he got rid of her.
@gambrel saidA very unlikely scenario, if only because of the uncertainty of the outcome. There were probably 20 people standing near the camera or behind it in the line of fire. If you want to murder NN, you don't give someone a loaded gun he thinks is unloaded and tell him to fire into a crowd where NN happens to be standing. There are much more certain means of eliminating people without leaving so many clues.
My daughter pointed out another possibility.
Someone on the set wanted Hutchins gone, and used Baldwin's rehearsal to do so.
@moonbus saidWould make a good film plot.

@moonbus saidI never said it was likely, I said it was a possibility.

@ogb saidOh, other countries have guns all right, just not the gun homicide rate of America.
Guns never hurt anyone, it's the people holding the guns ! At least we have the Second Amendment... I hope other countries have the same rights !

@moonbus saidWell if you take away all of the gang vs gang violence then what would the numbers be?

That was my nice way of asking...
If blacks stopped killing each other...what would the numbers be?
@contenchess saidStill too high. For any civilized country not at war, that is. America's murder rate is higher than it was in NI at the height of the Troubles.

@contenchess saidIf more people had anger management therapy, they wouldn't need guns to feel safe.
Maybe if Europe was armed like the Americans the Germans might have thought twice about annihilating millions of people with relative ease during WW2 🤔
