Doesn't matter who put the round in the firearm or even if their intent was malicious.
The armorer should never have assumed the weapon was empty!

That armorer should NEVER work at that job again. I bet movie insurers start insisting on union armorers from now on.

Alec Baldwin charged with involuntary manslaughter. SAG-AFTRA defends Alec Baldwin amid charges in fatal ‘Rust’ shooting: ‘Wrong and uninformed.' "Firearms are provided for their use under the guidance of multiple expert professionals directly responsible for the safe and accurate operation of that firearm. In addition, the employer is always responsible for providing a safe work environment at all times, including hiring and supervising the work of professionals trained in weapons," - SAG-AFTRA

It was a union production but six principal IATSE union members walked off in the early hours, specifically citing safety gripes, particularly gun safety. The armorer who handed the gun to Baldwin was a rookie who had only been lead armorer on one other movie before. After the walkoff, producers hired NON-UNION replacements.
