New Mexico agency hands 'Rust' production maximum fine for safety violations
Interviews with multiple members of the “Rust” crew paint an hour- by-hour picture of a cascade of bad decisions that created a chaotic set on which a lead bullet was put into a prop gun.
“While we appreciate OSHA’s time and effort in its investigation, we disagree with its findings and plan to appeal,” said Stefan Friedman, a spokesman for Rust Movie Productions. “Our thoughts and prayers remain with Halyna’s family.” The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office is conducting a criminal investigation into how a live bullet got onto the set and was loaded into a weapon without being checked.
A day after the shooting, an inspector for the agency, Lorenzo Montoya, went to the Bonanza Creek movie ranch outside of Santa Fe. But Montoya said he was stopped by three armed guards who relayed a message from management that he was not allowed to take pictures or conduct interviews without a warrant.
The industry guidelines also require sufficient training to handle guns. But the production violated that guideline when Pickle told Gutierrez Reed on Oct. 17 via text message that there would be no more training days, depriving the armorer of the authority to decide whether additional training was needed, the investigators said.
