Mom Of 'Rust' Shooting Victim Slams Alec Baldwin: 'Continues To Increase My Pain'
HuffPost
Olga Solovey, who sued Baldwin for negligence last year, said the "Rust" star and producer has refused to apologize for his role in her daughter's death.
The mother of “Rust” cinematographer Halyna Hutchins is blasting film producer Alec Baldwin, saying that he has refused to “take responsibility” or apologize for his role in her daughter’s on-set death.
Olga Solovey said Tuesday that she won’t be attending the premiere of the film Wednesday because Baldwin “continues to increase my pain with his refusal to apologize to me and his refusal to take responsibility for her death.”
“Instead, he seeks to unjustly profit from his killing of my daughter,” she said in a statement to E! News. “That is the reason why I refuse to attend the festival for the promotion of Rust, especially now when there is still no justice for my daughter.”
Solovey has retained famed lawyer Gloria Allred, who told E! News in a separate statement Tuesday that as a producer on the film, Baldwin — whose manslaughter charge was dismissed in July — “disrespected” Hutchins’ family by organizing the premiere.
“Further, the decision not to even call the family to say he is sorry is cruel,” she continued.
