AB was in a position to prevent these types of accidents. Especially after a similar misfire happened 3 days prior, where the actor was told it was a cold gun and it misfired twice on set.
What happened afterwards to prevent it from happening again? According to 4 witnesses from the crew, NOTHING happened in response. That is why some crew walked off the film the morning of the death on set. Some felt it was unsafe.
AB , as a producer of the film, was in a position to correct those dangerous mistakes before they happened again. That is why it bothers me that his wife is trying to make him out to be the victim of circumstances. I think he partially responsible for those tragic circumstances because 3 days earlier a 'hot' gun was given in error and called a cold gun. AB has enough experience to know that something needed to be done to figure out how that happened.
Safety meetings are called when something bad happens, in order to figure out EXACTLY what went wrong. And no one did that. AB ignored the issue apparently, and days later when he is handed a 'cold' gun, he just assumes everything is fine?????
Not only that, he points it at a person, without really being certain about the safety protocols on this set?
