Now, a chorus of big-name actors, and others, are calling on film sets to ban real guns. We're also hearing from the lawyers for the woman whose job was making sure the real guns being used on the movie set of "Rust" were safe. She's Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the armorer.
We've heard her lawyers claim that someone may have slipped a live bullet into a box of dummy rounds on purpose. To cause real harm.

CHICAGO (NewsNation Now) — Alex Murdaugh is out of rehab with a pair of felony fraud counts staring him down. He faces several more nights in a South Carolina jail cell and possibly many more years locked up. On Tuesday, a South Carolina judge refused to grant bond in any amount for the one-time titan among Low Country lawyers. Murdaugh is now charged not only with trying to stage his own murder but also with cheating his late housekeeper's family out of millions in death insurance. Before he'll consider bond, the judge wants the defense to pony up a psychiatric assessment to support their claim that Murdaugh isn't a threat to himself or the community. For Murdaugh, that basically means a week or more in a jail cell. Eric Bland, the lawyer for the late housekeeper's family joins "Banfield." The lawsuit he filed against Murdaugh just weeks ago paved the way for this latest batch of charges. Also, Seema Iyer, chief legal correspondent for NewsNation affiliate WJZY and a lawyer who was there in the courtroom for the whole proceeding, joins the show to discuss the case.

Searchers have spent well over a million dollars looking for Laundrie in that swamp since the day his parents say he went hiking and never came home. Will this single cadaver dog be able to do what dozens and dozens of law enforcement officers with the best tracking equipment have thus far been unable to do?

Could it be Laundrie was never there in the first place?
The announcement comes a day after Laundrie's father went to the swamp, his lawyer says, to help point out his son's frequent hiking spots.

Aug. 27 is turning out to be an interesting date in the Gabby Petito case — and possibly the day she died.
At 8 p.m. Aug. 26, a TikTokker named Jessica Schultz said she saw Brian Laundrie trying to park that infamous white van at the Spread Creek Campground in Grand Teton National Park.
The next day, Aug. 27, Jessica is certain that she sees that same van again in the same area. Then, later in the day, at 1 p.m a witness named Nina Angelo says she saw Brian and Gabby fighting at a restaurant 10 miles away in Jackson, Wyoming.

Two-and-a-half weeks after Brian Laundrie supposedly set off into the Florida swamp, the pressure isn't letting up to track him down.
But manhunt or not, the fugitive has his cheerleaders and the insults and attacks on Gabby Petito are as close as your laptop.
It was a month ago Friday that Brian Laundrie showed up back in Florida without his fiancée and cross-country travel mate. And in that time, the disappearance and death of Gabby Petito — and the manhunt for Brian — have mesmerized the nation and a few other nations. Overwhelmingly, that attention has been supportive, sympathetic, loving toward Petito and her grieving family — and much less so toward the Laundries.
However, supporters of Brian Laundrie have set up camp for themselves on Reddit, Twitter and Facebook.
Kris Mohandie, a forensic psychologist, joins "Banfield" to discuss these online communities.
Also, Laundrie's sister, Cassie Laundrie, saw her brother in the days following his return to Florida without Petito, despite her previous comments.
Cassie Laundrie said last month she had not spoken to her brother since he returned to Florida without Petito on Sept. 1.

"To my knowledge, they did purchase a new phone and it's the same phone that Brian left home and which the FBI is in possession of," said Steven Bertolino, the Laundrie family's attorney.
Five days ago, the Laundrie family said Brian had left behind his wallet and cellphone at the family home when he disappeared Sept. 14. But at the time they didn't say it was a phone Brian had just purchased on that very day. NewsNation reporter Brian Entin brings a live report from outside the Laundrie home.
Also on the show, the coroner is still actively working with Petito's remains. Joseph Scott Morgan, a certified death investigator, joins "Banfield" to explain what could be next.
While the story of Gabby Petito and the search for Brian Laundrie has dominated national headlines, another family is searching for a missing loved one.
Geologist Daniel Robinson, 24, had been missing for two months before Petito's name became known across the country. Robinson was last seen June 23. His Jeep Renegade was discovered overturned in a desert ravine almost a month after he disappeared. His clothes, keys and wallet were still inside, but Daniel was nowhere to be found. However, the Jeep may not have crashed where it was found.
A private investigator says the airbags deployed 11 miles beforehand and that someone tried to restart the Jeep more than 40 times. That investigator also says the damage to the vehicle doesn't match the terrain at the rollover site.
Daniel's Mother, Melissa Edmonds and Daniel's father David Robinson join "Banfield" on the frantic search for their son.
Lastly, The Daily Mail is reporting former news anchor Katie Couric gave Ashleigh Banfield the cold shoulder early in her career because helping her would have been "self-sabotage." Ashleigh delivers her response to those alleged comments.
Records show Brian Laundrie's family arranged a camping trip shortly before Brian disappeared and police began searching for him in the wake of Gabby Petito's disappearance.
The Laundrie camping trip first came to light when "Dog the Bounty Hunter" said he got a tip about a campground 70 miles north of the Laundrie family home. When he pulled the records from Sept. 7 and 8, it showed Brian's mom registered for campsite 001 on the waterfront at the Desoto Park campground near St Petersburg.
The public information specialist for Pinellas County where the campground is located sent NewsNation a campground registration that shows every camper's name and length of stay. Roberta Laundrie, the name of Brian's mother, was booked to stay there Sept. 6 to Sept. 8.
This timeline lines up with what the Laundrie's neighbors said when they alleged seeing Brian and his parents pack up a new camper and leave about a week after Brian returned home without Gabby Petito on Sept. 1.
