What if the company that provided the blanks made a mistake? How can any reputable LE agency not follow through on that? If they did investigate it and develop some evidence, where is it? Where is the report? That should be public information. JMO, the way this investigation has been handled seems a little hinky. I hope I'm wrong.

Yes. There's a lot of evidence that we haven't seen yet. JMO.

One thing to consider is even if the company that supplied the blanks and dummy rounds made a mistake, it's the armorers job to check each round to make sure only blanks or dummy's are being loaded into the gun. JMO.

HG-R's lawsuit against the ammunition supplier. Per the complaint:
"Gutierrez Reed arrived on set... the day of the shooting, to find a box labeled "dummy rounds .45 LC." She said it was supplied by Kenney and PDQ. Unbeknownst to her, at least some of those bullets were in fact live rounds, the suit says.
[She] also said that, in the minutes before the shooting, she left the church where filming was taking place to comply with COVID-19 protocols and to attend to other props. She said she didn't know Baldwin was inside rehearsing drawing his gun. Gutierrez Reed said that if she were in the church at the time, she would have told Baldwin not to point the gun at Hutchins, a typical safety measure for the use of guns on film sets."

"Alec Baldwin is 'devastated' that he is facing involuntary manslaughter charges, a source has revealed, and the actor and his wife Hilaria are 'leaning on each other.' "

Baldwin 'devastated' as he faces charges and 'leaning on' wife
Alec and Hilaria Baldwin were 'prepared for all outcomes, but nothing can quite prepare you for this,' a source said, adding that the actor's wife was 'doing whatever she can to support him'.

Doubtful LE's investigation of this case seems a little "hinky." as you claim. The State is not required to provide evidence to the public during criminal investigations.

But wait. HG-R took the gun to the church and handed it to Halls. She knew they were rehearsing, yet she still left.
