Yeah, that's never, ever, ever happened in the movies, TV shows, or theater. Right?

What happened on other sets may likely be not considered as mitigating circumstances.

All the states attorney needs to demonstrate is that he was engaged in a lawful but dangerous act and did not act with due caution.

That’s what the state has to prove for involuntary manslaughter, which is a fourth-degree felony with a maximum penalty of up to 18 months in prison.



What will be considered by the court is whether is incident occurred because deviation from industry safety standards occurred. (Which they did)

You can also look to the future with:

1) Certification of Armorers.

2) SAG required safety measures, or no actors.

3) Both of the above, or no insurance policy for the movie.
