Maybe the assailant was invited in the house very late, like after 3 am. Perhaps he was seen by all four victims while everyone was still socializing, in the kitchen or living room. People go off to bedrooms at some point, and this is when he attacks his intended target. His motivation for...
She's involved by definition: she's responsible for the safe handling of the fire arms. The head armorer must demand that everyone follow the rules and procedures. Could a 24 year old stand up to Hollywood bigwigs much older than herself? It would be tough to do.
The armorer has to get the entire crew and cast to respect her absolute authority, and adhere to every rule. We don't know what went wrong yet, but I imagine she'll never work in this field again.

The head armorer was 24 years old. That seems awfully young for such a big responsibility. Weapons knowledge is not enough. Real leadership skills are necessary.
Not only was the gun loaded, it was loaded with a live projectile round, not a blank. So the question is, who loaded that round and when did they do it.
For their own protection and peace of mind though, actors handling fire arms should learn how to check the ammunition status of the weapons they're handling, and do it every time. I'll bet they start doing exactly that now after this accident.
1. Assume every gun is always loaded
1. Don't point at anything you don't want to shoot
These rules are broken when dry firing, or aiming and pulling the trigger with an unloaded weapon. But dry firing has it's own safety proceedures, which involve checking and verifying the weapon is unloaded...
I'm not going to stand down range of someone dry firing unless at least two trained people have *checked and verified* that the weapon is not loaded, with anything.
This family is pretty clever, unfortunately. Their plan worked. He's not in that preserve. He got out via another entrance and another vehicle. They would not have waited three days to report him missing. They would not have picked up his car. There was a plan.
I've gone back in the thread and I only see one post of this info (last Sunday) that I somehow missed, and no discussion relating to it. It seems ... significant, doesn't it?
This is a really tough one for all of us who love hiking. How could such a wholesome activity get your entire family killed? Heat. The answer is heat. You have to be back inside by 9am when temperatures are this high, as they will be throughout the summer in many places. They are not the first...
I'm guessing they expected to be able to go hiking every weekend. That was probably the main reason they relocated to this area. Well, you can't hike in this part of California in the summer, because you have to be back inside after 9am. I'm imagining they just couldn't accept that they wouldn't...
The only thing I can think of would be the trail cut at the switch bend. Given the steepness of the trail the outside of the bend might create a short "wall."
If JG was found in a seated position, what was his back resting on? I've looked on Google Earth and there are no trees. Also it seems if you're really feeling bad, from heat stroke or something else, you're going to lay all the way down.
