Baldwin says complying with 'Rust' shooting investigation

US actor Alec Baldwin insisted Saturday that he was complying with the investigation into the fatal on-set shooting of a cinematographer nearly a month after detectives obtained a warrant for his phone.

"Any suggestion that I am not complying with requests or orders or demands or search warrants about my phone, that's bullshit, that's a lie," the US actor said in a video message posted on Instagram.

He said that authorities in New Mexico, where the shooting occurred, are coordinating with authorities of New York state, where Baldwin lives, in order to obtain the phone, adding that it was a lengthy process.

"Of course, we are 1,000 percent going to comply with all that. We are perfectly fine with that," Baldwin said.

They have a warrant. Almost a month ago they made the request. But he is "complying". OK...

But, he is probably looking for a special master to be assigned to the case. The SM would go through the phone and delineate between relevant information to the case and other information/pics that the facist 3% cops want to get and leak that has no bearing on the case, but might be embarrassing to him.

He is doing what he should be doing before trump's minions get a hold of the phone. He deserves the presumption of innocence and to be protected from craven ass holes looking, not for justice, but to be the guy that brings down the man that hurt their dear leaders feelings. I have seen it upclose, when these guys come across a big fish, they see dollar signs and fame.
