The husband of Halyna Hutchins, the cinematographer shot and killed on the set of "Rust," says it's absurd Alec Baldwin won't accept responsibility for her death. "The idea that the person holding the gun and causing it to discharge is not responsible is absurd to me," Matthew Hutchins explained to NBC News' "Today" co-anchor Hoda Kotb during an interview that airs Thursday. "But gun safety was not the only problem on that set," Hutchins added. "There were a number of industry standards that were not practiced and there’s multiple responsible parties." Hutchins was referring to an interview Baldwin did with ABC News, during which Baldwin spoke about what happened on the set of "Rust" Oct.

"Someone is responsible for what happened, and I can’t say who that is, but it’s not me," Baldwin said at the time.

"I was just so angry to see him talk about her death so publicly in such a detailed way and then to not accept any responsibility after having just described killing her." Baldwin has maintained that he did not pull the trigger of the gun and emphasized that he believed the gun was empty.
