The state of New Mexico on Wednesday levied a nearly $140,000 fine against the production company behind the the film"Rust" for safety violations which culminated in the on-set shooting death last October of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins by actor Alec Baldwin.
"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," New Mexico Environment Cabinet Secretary James Kenney said in a statement."This is a complete failure of the employer to follow recognized national protocols that keep employees safe."
, on the set of the Western"Rust," just outside Santa Fe, a single live round from a Pietta Colt .45 revolver fired by Baldwin struck and killed Hutchins and wounded the film's director, 48-year-old Joel Souza.
