Alec Baldwin should have the “human decency to say ‘I’m sorry'”, a lawyer for the family of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins has said.
Gloria Allred, who is representing the sister and parents of Ms Hutchins in a civil trial seeking damages, made the comment after a criminal manslaughter case against the actor fell apart.
It comes as Baldwin shared his first comment since the case was dismissed on Friday.
“There are too many people who have supported me to thank just now,” he wrote in a post on Instagram.
“To all of you, you will never know how much I appreciate your kindness toward my family,” he added.
The involuntary manslaughter case against Baldwin over the fatal shooting of Ms Hutchins on the set of Rust was dismissed yesterday.
The award-winning actor, 66, broke down in tears and hugged lawyers following judge Mary Marlowe Sommer’s decision.
She agreed with his lawyers that prosecutors and police withheld evidence about the source of the live ammunition that killed 42-year-old Ms Hutchins in 2021.
She threw out the case three days after the trial began in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and 18 months after charges were filed.
