Hutchins was operating the camera
during a rehearsal when Baldwin’s prop gun
discharged. Baldwin maintains he did not know the
weapon had real bullets in it. Authorities have been
investigating the case but have not announced their
findings.

Hutchins’ family has filed a lawsuit
blaming Baldwin for Hutchins’ death, stating he
refused to undergo “cross-draw” training. Baldwin
ended up shooting Hutchins at close range, standing
4-feet away from the cinematographer, who took a
bullet to the chest. She died in the helicopter on
the way to the hospital. Baldwin, the film's star
and producer, denies all responsibility in the
shooting.

The family of slain “Rust” cinematographer Halyna
Hutchins filed a wrongful death lawsuit against
actor Alec Baldwin and other film producers Tuesday,
blaming the tragedy on cost-cutting measures and
reckless behavior by Baldwin and others.
Hutchins, 42, was fatally wounded
Oct. 21 when Baldwin pulled a revolver from his
holster and fired it toward Hutchins and other crew
members during a rehearsal on the Bonanza Creek
Ranch movie set near Santa Fe, New Mexico. The
bullet also struck director Joel Souza, who
recovered.
The lawsuit alleged that Baldwin and
other producers of the low-budget film sacrificed
crew members’ safety by hiring inexperienced crew
members and disregarding safety concerns expressed
earlier by camera crew operators.
The lawsuit placed much of the blame
on Baldwin, who, according to the lawsuit, refused
training in the “cross-draw” maneuver that he was
practicing that day — just four feet from Hutchins
and other crew members...
