A sad video of the last moments of Galina Hutchins' life, in which paramedics scream: "Galina, stay with us!" was released as part of a wealth of evidence released by the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office on April 25.

Hutchins, who died at the age of 42, could be seen unconscious on the church floor as medics worked to save her after being shot on the set of a Western in New Mexico in October 2021.

All this time she was unconscious. She was shot in the right armpit, and the bullet that hit her exited through the top of her shoulder.

In another video, the Rust team, including Baldwin, can be heard asking how Hutchins is doing.

Someone is heard asking if the condition is life-threatening, and the answer is, "Enough to die."

One video shows how Baldwin was first approached by police minutes after the shooting, and he was warned not to discuss the incident with any of his colleagues until the police spoke to him.

In another clip, Baldwin sits in the back of a truck and asks for news about Hutchins, but the cop says EMTs are still working on her.

The third frame shows how after that he was interrogated at the police station.

The investigation files also include rehearsal clips of Baldwin in costume practicing the quick-draw gun maneuver.

Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza said his agency's investigation remains open and ongoing as they await ballistic and forensic results from the FBI, as well as fingerprint and DNA studies.

"The Sheriff's Office is releasing all files related to our ongoing investigation," the statement said. These files also include photographs of the munitions from the set and inspection reports.

At a ranch on the outskirts of Santa Fe on October 21, 2021, Baldwin pointed a gun at cameraman Galina Hutchins and fired, killing Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza. They were inside a small church while preparing to film the scene.

In a video filmed by police later that day, Baldwin makes several desperate calls while waiting to meet law enforcement officials.

“You have no idea how incredible and how terrible it is,” he says by phone.

Last week, New Mexico state regulators imposed the highest possible fine of nearly $137 on film production company Rust.

The New Mexico Bureau of Occupational Health and Safety said Rust Movie Productions owed $136 and issued a scathing report of safety violations in industry standard protocols, including testimonies that production executives took limited or no action. to eliminate two misfires on the set.

The bureau also documented complaints about gun safety from crew members. Rust Movie Productions said it would dispute the findings and sanctions.

Baldwin said in a December interview that he was on set pointing a gun at Hutchins at her direction when the gun went off without pulling the trigger.
The Santa Fe County Sheriff has released his investigation into the murder of Galina Hutchins on the set of Rust, including a video of Alec Baldwin being questioned after the cameraman was accidentally killed.

He cooperated with the police as part of the investigation into her death.

It is believed that at the time of the interrogation, he did not know that Hutchins had died.

Under interrogation, he said he thought the gun was "cold," unloaded, when Hannah Gutierrez-Reid, the gunsmith in the film, handed it to him.

Baldwin at the beginning of the interrogation video asks if he has been charged with anything. Then he sighs heavily and says, "We've been doing this for two weeks and doing it right every day."

He keeps insisting that the weapons they used before were "cold".

“Right before I shot, I went to lunch. Hannah took the gun from me—she always took the gun into her own hands. I come back, Hannah gives me a gun. It was believed to be an unloaded weapon. I cocked the hammer, turned, and it fired. It had to be a “cold” gun,” the actor said.

“Bam, she falls to the ground. Joel Souza falls screaming, “Jesus Christ!” I’ve never seen anything like this before... What came out of that bullet that went through her shoulder?... It was right in front of me,” Baldwin said.

The bullet first went through Souza's arm and then hit Hutchins. He recovered from his injury, but Hutchins died in the hospital.

Baldwin went on to describe Gutiérrez-Reid as "the daughter of a famous gunfighter" who gave him the weapon.

Towards the end of the interrogation, Baldwin is shown a photograph of what was taken from Souza's shoulder. Shocked, he says, “It's a bullet. Someone loaded the gun with a live bullet."

He is then asked if he saw any cartridges in the gun, but he answered in the negative. “I watched her load and reload the gun many times,” he said.

Baldwin was asked if there was anyone who could intentionally put a live bullet into a pistol. He cited the fact that there were crew strikes at the time and that many of the crew left the set the day before.

“These people were on strike against the big studios, but not against the independent film community. A bunch of people on set left anyway, even though they were told not to. It was yesterday. But I don’t even know… I have no idea,” he said.

The investigation into the shooting was never able to prove whether the bullet had been inserted into the gun intentionally or if it was all an accident.

Gutierrez-Reed insisted throughout that she did not put a live bullet in the gun and that she could have been framed.

Baldwin initially enjoyed the support of Hutchins' widower Matt. However, then Matt sued the actor and told how angry he was that Baldwin was promoting the death of his wife.

“I was so angry to see him talk publicly and in great detail about her death, describe her murder, and then take no responsibility,” Matt said in February. “I heard how he blames Galina in the interview and shifts responsibility to others, how he cries because of this, so that they would feel sorry for him.”
