The family of a on the set of the film B次元官网网址淩ustB次元官网网址� sued Alec Baldwin and the movieB次元官网网址檚 producers Tuesday alleging their B次元官网网址渃allousB次元官网网址� disregard in the face of safety complaints led directly to her death.

At a news conference announcing the lawsuit, attorneys for the husband and 9-year-old son of Halyna Hutchins said that Baldwin refused training for the type of B次元官网网址渃ross-drawB次元官网网址� he was performing when he fired the shot that killed her.

BaldwinB次元官网网址檚 attorney responded that any claim the actor was reckless is B次元官网网址渆ntirely false.B次元官网网址�

The suit filed in New MexicoB次元官网网址檚 Santa Fe County in the name of Matthew and Andros Hutchins shows a text message exchange between a camera operator and a producer in which a complaint over gun safety was met with what the suit calls B次元官网网址渃allous sarcasm.B次元官网网址�

The operator, Lane Luper, texted unit production manager Katherine Walters saying: B次元官网网址淲eB次元官网网址檝e now had 3 accidental discharges. This is super unsafe.B次元官网网址�

Walters responds: B次元官网网址淎ccidental discharge on the firearm? Awesome. Sounds good.B次元官网网址�

At least over the shooting, but this is the first directly tied to one of the two people shot.

The defendantsB次元官网网址� B次元官网网址渞eckless conduct and cost-cutting measures led to the death of Halyna Hutchins,B次元官网网址� attorney Brian Panish said.

Had proper protocols been followed, the suit says, B次元官网网址淗alyna Hutchins would be alive and well, hugging her husband and 9-year-old son. B次元官网网址�

Baldwin, who was also a producer on the film, was pointing a gun at Hutchins inside a small church during the setup for the filming of a scene for the Western in New Mexico on Oct. 21 when it went off, killing Hutchins and wounding the director, Joel Souza. The attorneys showed an animated recreation of the shooting at the news conference.

Baldwin has said he was pointing the gun at Hutchins at her instruction and .

The suit says industry standards call for using a rubber or similar prop gun during the setup, and there was no call for a real gun.

It also says that both Baldwin and assistant director David Halls, who handed him the gun, should have checked the revolver for live bullets.

The suit also names as defendants Halls, Walters, the filmB次元官网网址檚 armorer Hannah Guttierez Reed, and ammunition supplier Seth Kenney.

B次元官网网址淎ny claim that Alec was reckless is entirely false,B次元官网网址� Aaron Dyer, attorney for Baldwin and other producers, said in a statement Tuesday. B次元官网网址淗e, Halyna and the rest of the crew relied on the statement by the two professionals responsible for checking the gun that it was a B次元官网网址榗old gunB次元官网网址� B次元官网网址� meaning there is no possibility of a discharge.B次元官网网址�

He added that B次元官网网址渁ctors should be able to rely on armorers and prop department professionals, as well as assistant directors, rather than deciding on their own when a gun is safe to use.B次元官网网址�

Last month Baldwin to investigators, and Dyer said he continues to cooperate fully with the investigation.

Authorities have described B次元官网网址渟ome complacencyB次元官网网址� in how weapons were handled on the B次元官网网址淩ustB次元官网网址� set. They have said it is too soon to determine whether charges will be filed.

Baldwin said in the shooting.

Several crew members have filed lawsuits, including .

Her attorney Jason Bowles did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the new lawsuit. An attorney for Kenney could not be found. He has said previously that he was sure his company did not send any live rounds to the set.

In an interview with ABC, Baldwin said Hutchins had asked him to point the gun just off camera and toward her armpit before it went off.

B次元官网网址淚 didnB次元官网网址檛 pull the trigger,B次元官网网址� Baldwin said. B次元官网网址淚 would never point a gun at anyone and pull the trigger at them. Never.B次元官网网址�

Panish said Tuesday that the assertion was unrealistic.

B次元官网网址淚 think itB次元官网网址檚 clear what happened,B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淎lec had the gun in his hand, he shot it, Halyna was killed.B次元官网网址�

The complaint does not cite a dollar amount, but Panish said it would be considerable.

B次元官网网址淎 longtime marriage, a soulmate is lost, and a boy to be raised without a mother at a young age is a tremendous loss,B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淎nd anyone whoB次元官网网址檚 even been close to that experience knows, that that goes on forever and ever and ever.B次元官网网址�

The plaintiffsB次元官网网址� attorney in New Mexico, Randi McGinn, said the lawsuit is likely to move much more quickly than if it were filed in California, as others have been.

B次元官网网址淚n New Mexico, weB次元官网网址檙e used to people coming in from out of town to play cowboy, who donB次元官网网址檛 know how to use guns,B次元官网网址� McGinn said.

Hutchins, 42, grew up on a remote Soviet military base and worked on documentary films in Eastern Europe before studying film in Los Angeles and embarking on a promising movie-making career.

On her Instagram page, Hutchins identified herself as a B次元官网网址渞estless dreamerB次元官网网址� and B次元官网网址渁drenaline junkie.B次元官网网址�

In 2019, American Cinematographer called her B次元官网网址渙ne of the yearB次元官网网址檚 rising stars.B次元官网网址�

DyerB次元官网网址檚 statement said: B次元官网网址淓veryoneB次元官网网址檚 hearts and thoughts remain with HalynaB次元官网网址檚 family as they continue to process this unspeakable tragedy.B次元官网网址�
