nypost.com

Randall Miller, director of "Midnight Rider," has been exonerated 11 years after a train crash on set killed camerawoman Sarah Jones. A court order has cleared his involuntary manslaughter conviction following the completion of his probation. Miller served one year in prison and completed a 10-year probation period, during which he was barred from filmmaking. He and the film's executive producer were found responsible for the incident, which occurred while filming on a railroad bridge without permission. Miller is now eligible to work on new projects, including an independent film titled "Supercrip." This development comes as safety measures in the film industry are being discussed following other on-set accidents.
