The bureau said the "Willful-Serious" citation and $136,793 fine is the maximum permitted under New Mexico law.īaldwin's settlement comes nearly two months after the FBI concluded in a forensic report that the gun used to kill Hutchins couldn't have been fired without someone first pulling the trigger. "This is a complete failure of the employer to follow recognized national protocols that keep employees safe." "Our investigation found that this tragic incident never would have happened if Rust Movie Productions, LLC had followed national film industry standards for firearm safety," Environment Cabinet Secretary James Kenney said in a statement announcing the fine. In a scathing report, safety officials said the production company showed "plain indifference to the recognized hazards associated with the use of firearms on set that resulted in a fatality, severe injury, and unsafe working conditions." Months after Halyna's death, Rust Movie Productions LLC was also fined over $136,000 by New Mexico's Occupational Health and Safety Bureau. Reflecting on Baldwin's tearful interview, Matthew said the actor presented the story in a way in which it "almost sounds like he was the victim."
"I was just so angry to see him talk about her death so publicly, in such a detailed way and then to not accept any responsibility after having just described killing her." But watching him I just felt so angry," he said at the time. Matthew said he did, and it made him angry. During his interview on NBC Nightly News, Matthew was asked if he saw the GMA interview. Matthew joining the film as an executive producer is an unexpected turn of events, considering he expressed anger toward Baldwin back in February over the actor's Good Morning America interview in December. While Baldwin was holding the gun at the time of the shooting, he's consistently maintained that he never pulled the trigger. At the time, the estate's attorney, Panish, said Baldwin and other named defendants are "responsible for the safety on the set and whose reckless behavior in cost cutting led to the senseless and tragic death of Halyna Hutchins.” Pending the judge signing off on the settlement, the settlement will toss the wrongful death lawsuit Hutchins' estate brought against Baldwin and the Rust production back in February. We are grateful to everyone who contributed to the resolution of this tragic and painful situation." Baldwin's lawyer, Luke Nikas of Quinn Emanuel, added in a statement to ET: "Throughout this difficult process, everyone has maintained the specific desire to do what is best for Halyna’s son.
