Of course Baldwin didnt “act like a responsible person” that in no way indicates or even suggests that he is guilty of killing the director of photography.

It has nothing to do with any crime. Similarly his cussing out of his daughter (or whoever it was) over the phone years ago has nothing to do with the DoP’s death.
