In a phone chat with Insider on Friday, Oct. 22, Halyna’s husband Matthew Hutchins reacted to his wife’s untimely death. “I don’t think there are words to communicate the situation.”

“I am not going to be able to comment about the facts or the process of what we’re going through right now, but I appreciate that everyone has been very sympathetic. I don’t think there are words to communicate the situation.”

You shot two people you thug,for someone who is anti gun and anti second amendment ,like your lefty libtard friends in Hollyweird ,most of what your industry produces involves gun /violence,i hope that lovely young human you killed ,i hope her family wipes you out financially

@junemcallister3

You shot someone after failing to follow the most basic gun safety rules. For us peasants, this would be considered manslaughter.

@SDK45_1

this guy still hasn't figured out threads. it's over.

@crustyleper

taking someone's life on accident must be such a heartbreaking situation, to the people responsible, to the family of the victim and everyone involved. it feels as though for the rest of everybody's life, it will seem as if a death could have been prevent

@whereisflav

Anyone saying this is his fault has a SEVERE misunderstanding in how props work on movie sets. Some of these comments are absolutely despicable. What a horrendous tragedy this is.

@mike_mattei

Treat guns (even props) like you can hurt someone. Moron.

@alloutofluv

This occurred cause Alec was lazy and did not follow proper gun safety guidelines REQUIRED by his actor's union: he expected what was handed to him to be good to go. Had he followed the gun safety guidelines,he would've done his safety check. He was negligent in failing to do so.

@DetRockCity13

If he was black! Whole different story & headline😂

@_itsYin

"How it occurred " 🤦‍♀️ FFS dude, you pulled the trigger

@MeAndMyDogToo

Why would he point the prop gun at these 2 people and pull the trigger in the first place?
