Overview

• Randall Miller, director of 'Midnight Rider,' was exonerated this week after completing probation for his 2015 involuntary manslaughter conviction in the death of Sarah Jones.
• Jones, a 27-year-old camera assistant, was killed in 2014 by a freight train while the crew filmed unauthorized on a train bridge in Georgia.
• Miller served one year in jail and was the first filmmaker imprisoned for a film-related death, with his probation barring him from directing for a decade.
• The exoneration was granted under Georgia's First Offender Act, which allows first-time offenders to clear their records after completing probation without violations.
• Miller is now set to work on 'Supercrip,' an independent film participating in a California safety program inspired by the 2021 'Rust' on-set shooting tragedy.
