This is a workplace safety regulator, not a prosecutor or court case (whether civil or criminal). Plenty more could still come, just not from these folks.
Right, this is just one arm of the state bureaucracy doing the maximum they are empowered to by law. This has nothing to do with criminal charges, civil trials, or even what other agencies could potentially enforce.

‘Rust’ Armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed Claims Exoneration After OSHA Report On Fatal Film Shooting Puts Safety Violations Blame On Producers & Supervisors
Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed is declaring a degree of vindication after a vital safety report's release Wednesday.

It did clarify his position in on-set management. Too many people were latching onto the producer title.
To me, the armorer's role in all this sounds more and more dubious.
'I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm sorry.' Documents reveal new details about 'Rust' shooting
The documents include a 204-page case report summarizing the investigation, which remains open and ongoing.ca.yahoo.com
While working as an armorer on "The Old Way," a Nicolas Cage western shot in Montana, Gutierrez Reed sent Kenney a text message on Aug. 15 in which she asked the weapons provider if she could "shoot hot rounds out of the trap door," the report stated.
"Wtf is a hot round?" Kenney asked in response, to which Gutierrez Reed replied, "Like a pretty big load of actual ammunition," according to the report.
The report states that Kenney "tells her never to shoot live ammo out of tv/movie guns, and to only use blanks" and follows up by saying, "It's a serious mistake, always ends in tears."
"Good to know, I'm still gonna shoot mine tho," Gutierrez Reed responded, according to the report.
It sounds very likely to me that she had live ammo that she had used for "shooting for fun" on a previous film starring Nic Cage.
It doesn't seem like a stretch to think she mixed up ammo and then brought live ammo from the previous shoot onto the Rust set, and then loaded the prop gun for Baldwin with said live ammo without properly checking it.
This was clear as day as soon as any details started emerging honestly. She's fucking irresponsible and dangerous, and even if other people were at fault for creating an an unsafe set, it was her responsibility to ensure that any and all firearms were safely handled, stored, and keeping fucking live ammo off set.To me, the armorer's role in all this sounds more and more dubious.

She's fucking full of shit, and has done nothing but try to shift responsibility and create batshit conspiracy theories to avoid any and all scrutiny for her failure in her role that she deserves.
