Alec Baldwin sues to ‘clear his name’ in movie set killing​

This creates quite a legal challenge.
He is suing his own employees which he had direct control over for following his own orders.

Agree-- but you know damn well even if found guilty he won't be doing any serious jail time. Probably just probation. Basically a waste of taxpayer money.
He already paid a token amount in civil damages. No possibility of him getting any real jail time.

A decoy trial, that if the plaintiff takes as bait, will accomplish two things...
1) Baldwin will be acquitted, since they can't prove intent (necessary in criminal trials,) and claims of negligence are dubious, since he had employees in charge of checking the weapons.
And...
2) successfully defending against a criminal judgement, will eliminate or greatly reduce the settlement in the inevitable civil suit that will follow.

He'll probably get away with no charges, and an undisclosed private settlement in lieu of civil court.
