Randall Miller, director of "Midnight Rider," recently completed his 11-year probation term stemming from his involvement in a tragic incident where camerawoman Sarah Jones was killed by a train on set. This week, a court granted his request to clear his involuntary manslaughter conviction under the Georgia First Offender Act. Miller expressed immense gratitude for this outcome, marking the end of a long legal battle that began after filming commenced without permission on a railroad bridge, leading to a fatal accident on February 20, 2014.
Miller completed 10 years of probation, during which time he was prohibited from filmmaking. He was initially sentenced to 10 years in prison but was released after spending just one year behind bars.
The pair were deemed responsible for the horrifying Feb. 20, 2014 incident after they knowingly filmed on a railroad bridge in rural southeast Georgia without permission from owner CSX Transportation.
