Matt Hutchins, the husband of the late Halyna Hutchins, has come forward to discuss the on-set prop gun accident that resulted in the death of the Rust cinematographer.
In the exclusive interview with TODAY, Hutchins cites the lack of on-set safety protocols, and the lack of “responsibility” taken by actor and producer Alec Baldwin as reasons for the deadly incident.
“The idea that the person holding the gun and causing it to discharge is not responsible is absurd to me,” Matt Hutchins tells TODAY host Hoda Kotb.
“But gun safety was not the only problem on that set. There were a number of industry standards that were not practiced and there’s multiple responsible parties,” he adds.
