Fox News
A lawyer for the family of "Rust" cinematographer Halyna Hutchins told Fox News Digital that Alec Baldwin's arbitration demand was an attempt to "avoid liability and accountability" for her death on the set of "Rust."
"Alec Baldwin once again is trying to avoid liability and accountability for his reckless actions before and on Oct. 21 that resulted in the death of Halyna Hutchins, as demonstrated by today’s arbitration demand for indemnification from the Rust production company," Panish said in a statement.
The arbitration demand, filed Friday by Baldwin's lawyers, included insight into Baldwin's role as a producer of "Rust," according to The New York Times. The actor claimed he was in charge of creative aspects but did not deal with hiring and budgets.
