Alec Baldwin said he believes certain lawsuits filed in the wake of the fatal shooting on the "Rust" film set have been directed toward people who are considered "deep-pocket litigants," not necessarily those who were potentially negligent in the incident.
"What you have is a certain group of people, litigants and whatever, on whatever side, who their attitude is, 'well the people who likely seem negligent have no money and the people who have money are not negligent,' " Baldwin said during a moderated event at the Boulder International Film Festival on Saturday.
Baldwin, billed as a "special guest programmer" for the film festival, did not specify to which of the multiple lawsuits filed after the shooting he was referring.
