Analogous situation is two actors with safety harnesses guaranteed by professional safety people messing around between scenes and one falls off to his death. It's dumb to rely on it unnecessarily, but not the pusher's fault that he should have checked the safety harnesses before horsing around; it was guaranteed.
The problem for prosecutors is that shooting an unloaded gun isn't "a lawful act which might produce death". The armorer assumed the responsibility by certifying it as an unloaded gun, unless somebody else loaded the gun after Baldwin got it. It's not the same situation as your friend handing you the gun and saying it's unloaded - he's not a professional making a promise you should be able to rely on.
Baldwin should be charged with purposely inflicting emotional distress for pointing the gun at somebody or like that, unless the facts show him aware it was loaded.
The "I didn't know it was loaded" defense doesn't work for John Doe. Why should it work for famous actors who should have been taught how to handle firearms decades ago?

I just said why, because a professional certified it. Works for John Doe as well.
Go bungie jumping and the harness comes off, your family can't sue because you killed yourself by not testing the safety equipment? That's crazy.
It's really just all her fault.
But it would be funny if he went simping for a fat retarded girl and took responsibility on himself.
