Midnight Rider incident

Midnight Rider, also known as Midnight Rider: The Gregg Allman Story, is an unfinished American biographical drama film. Director Randall Miller co-wrote the screenplay with Jody Savin, based on the autobiography My Cross to Bear by singer Gregg Allman. Miller and Savin were also the producers. The film was to star William Hurt, Tyson Ritter, Zoey Deutch, Eliza Dushku, and Wyatt Russell. It was supposed to be released sometime in the 2010s, but was canceled due to a fatal accident during the first day of filming at the CSX trestle bridge.

The incident
On February 20, 2014, during the very first day of filming, the crew members were on an active railroad trestle bridge, high over the Altamaha River in Wayne County, Georgia. Suddenly, a CSX freight train suddenly roared towards the trestle bridge, and second assistant camerawoman Sarah Jones was struck and killed  by the train. Seven other crew members were also injured, one seriously. William Hurt, who was playing Gregg Allman, was also injured and he officially pulled out of the project on April 23, 2014.

Post-incident
Miller, Savin and Sedrish were charged with involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespassing on July 3, 2014. Miller and Savin originally pleaded "not guilty". Miller received a sentence of 10 years, of which he was expected to serve two years in prison followed by probation (during which he would be precluded from working as a director or assistant director or other capacity involving employee safety), as well as pay a fine and do community service. He was immediately remanded in custody after the plea hearing to begin serving his sentence in the Wayne County jail. He was released in March 2016 after serving one year of his term.
