"I thought we knew what happened" - Internet baffled after Alec Baldwin demands justice for Halyna Hutchins' death

Last month, Sante Fe police obtained a warrant to collect Alec Baldwin's phone for the ongoing investigation over the accidental shooting on the set of Rust, which claimed the life of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Over the past few days, reports have emerged that authorities have still not received access to Baldwin's phone, despite filing the warrant three weeks ago. Some reports even alleged that the 63-year-old actor and his attorneys refused to comply with the Santa Fe police's request to hand over the phone.

Blocking phone records in movie-slay probe.&quot;He also spoke about honoring the late Halyna Hutchins by getting justice for her death. The actor vaguely addressed several allegations about the mismanagement of guns on the set of Rust and said:&quot;The best way, the only way we can honor the death of Halyna Hutchins is to find out the truth.
