    I am a consequentialist, so while I don’t support the current state of “reform” in the USA I still think negligence is just as punishable an offence as malice.

    I think Baldwin, responsible for cutting corners resulting in loss of life, should also face prison time.

      Baldwin is old enough to remember what happened to Brandon Lee. Add several workers leaving for safety reasons and it makes Baldwin the Producer and decision taker, responsable for turning a blind eye on all the security violations.

      He was the one gambling and taking a chance, as always, for a bigger profit.

      Gutierrez-Reed was unprofessional and ignored many safety procedures and is very responsible also, and should have walked out also… but being young and on your first jobs can be demanding and difficult to say no. What a wake-up call for her.
