Alec Baldwin Reaches Settlement in $25 Million Defamation Lawsuit Over Instagram Posts Targeting Gold Star Family.
Alec Baldwin, acclaimed Hollywood actor and producer, has reportedly reached a settlement in a highly-publicized defamation lawsuit that involved the Gold Star family of a fallen Marine. The $25 million suit was filed following a series of Instagram posts directed at the grieving family, which led to legal action against the actor.
The controversy began when Baldwin posted messages on his Instagram account calling out an individual who had criticized the actor’s wife, Hilaria Baldwin, for her perceived Spanish accent. The initial post was followed by subsequent comments that ultimately escalated into a public feud between the actor and a Gold Star family – the parents of Marine Matthew McCabe, who lost his life in 2010 while serving in Afghanistan.

Baldwin should go to jail for pulling the trigger. And I’m glad the marines family is compensated for the permanent damage caused by Alec.
Don’t you just love how there are 2 different justice systems in America, one for the rich democrats and the other for the peasants despite left or right
Alec Baldwin is your typical bully. A big mouth that relies on intimidation instead actual physical fighting. Like all bullies, Alec is really a pussy.
