Can a real lawyer out there tell me how Baldwin can be convicted of a crime where someone else has previously been convicted for the same crime? Seems to me all Baldwin's lawyer needs to show is that if the armorer had done her job then no death would have happened.
That is a fair argument. However if it can be shown independently that Baldwin was grossly negligent (that is a legal term) then he also becomes a cause of her death that might have been avoided if he wasn't so negligent. The armorer isn't then the sole cause of death. That is likely what the case against him will hinge on.
