'Rust' AD Says Alec Baldwin Did Not Pull Gun Trigger on Set

Alec Baldwin‘s claim is being backed up by the assistant director on the set of Rust.

“Dave has told me since the very first day I met him that Alec did not pull that trigger,” his attorney, Lisa Torraco, told ABC News’ Kaylee Hartung in an exclusive interview airing Thursday (December 2) on Good Morning America.

“His finger was never in the trigger guard.”

Alec‘s full interview will air on ABC as an hour-long special on Thursday, Dec. 2, at 8 p.m. ET and will begin streaming on Hulu later that evening.

“Someone put a live bullet in a gun, a bullet that wasn’t even supposed to be on the property,” he said in a clip from the interview.

Seth Kenny, the owner of a prop arsenal that provided guns and ammunition to the set, spoke to Good Morning America and denied the possibility that it came from his company: “There’s something very unique about the live rounds that were found on Rust. But we’ve got to wait for the FBI to do its job,” he said.
