"Well, the trigger wasn't pulled. I didn't pull the trigger."

The gun was haunted.

There's been a New Mexico warrant out for his phone since December 16th. If you refuse to give your phone up to the police who have a warrant, then I'm just gonna assume it's because of something sex-related. People you were in contact with.

New Mexico law enforcement officers have solicited help from New York authorities to retrieve Alec Baldwin’s cellphone in the “Rust” shooting investigation — more than three weeks after detectives asked to search the phone.

Santa Fe County Magistrate Judge David Segura on Dec. 16 authorized a search warrant allowing local law enforcement to search Baldwin’s iPhone for evidence that may prove valuable to their investigation into the Oct. 21 fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the low-budget western film “Rust.”

But so far that hasn’t happened, officials said this week.

“The Sheriff’s Office does not have physical possession of the phone,” Santa Fe County Sheriff’s spokesman Juan Rios said Friday afternoon. “The phone is in New York with Mr. Baldwin.”

Baldwin has a home in the Hamptons, in Suffolk County, New York.

New Mexico First Judicial Dist. Atty. Mary Carmack-Altwies — Santa Fe County’s top law enforcement officer who is overseeing the case — said in a statement Thursday that her office and Sheriff’s investigators “are actively working with the Suffolk County, New York Sheriff’s Department and Mr. Baldwin’s lawyers, within jurisdictional constraints, to obtain any materials from Mr. Baldwin’s phone that pertain to the Rust investigation.”

The search warrant issued by Segura was enforceable only in New Mexico, according to local attorneys.

Alec Baldwin has long lived at the center of a storm. Now comes a hurricane

Oct. 28, 2021


Law enforcement officials have been scrutinizing the actions of Baldwin — an actor and producer who fired the prop gun during a rehearsal — as well as assistant director David Halls, who was in charge of safety on the set, and the production’s 24-year-old armorer, Hannah Gutierrez Reed, who was responsible for the guns, ammunition and gun safety.

Baldwin’s representatives were not immediately available Friday for comment.

It is unclear why the veteran actor and star of “Rust” has not voluntarily turned over his phone. Earlier in the investigation, Santa Fe County Sheriff’s investigators retrieved cellphones belonging to Gutierrez Reed and Halls. Both individuals voluntarily turned over their phones to sheriff’s investigators without a search warrant, according to their respective attorneys.
