 Former Kennedy Center employees allege leadership delayed roof repairs before citing safety issues in closure decision Former Kennedy Center employees allege that the venue’s leadership knew about serious structural problems well before citing newly discovered hazards as the reason for its abrupt closure this month. The claims were outlined in a letter to Congress from a lawyer representing anonymous whistleblowers. The letter accuses the center’s executive director and chief operating officer, Matt Floca, of failing to prioritize roof repairs and stopping a funded repair plan in April. Floca disputes the allegations, saying recent inspections revealed that water damage had spread farther into the building than officials previously knew. In a September court declaration, Floca cited “acute risks to public safety” following an inspection that found deterioration in a roof terrace canopy and a partial ceiling collapse.

ALEC BALDWIN ADMITS HE 'DOESN’T WANT TO WORK ANYMORE' AFTER 'RUST' SHOOTING DEATH: 'I WANT TO RETIRE'. (PHOTO)


 Alec Baldwin admits he 'doesn’t want to work anymore' after 'Rust' shooting death: 'I want to retire'


Nearly five years after the tragic death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of Rust, Alec Baldwin has spoken candidly about how the incident reshaped his life and career. 


In July 2024, a judge in Santa Fe dismissed the involuntary manslaughter case against Baldwin, ruling that prosecutors had withheld evidence from his defense team. 


Despite the legal resolution, Baldwin admitted the experience left a lasting mark on him, describing it as “unspeakably difficult” and profoundly altering his outlook on work and family.


Reflecting on the aftermath, Baldwin explained that the tragedy led him to step away from acting for several years, spending most of his time at home with his children. 


He confessed that this period of domestic life became unexpectedly fulfilling, to the point where he grew reluctant to return to the industry. 


While he acknowledged that new projects are now on the horizon, Baldwin admitted he has grown comfortable with the idea of retirement, preferring the stability of home life over the demands of Hollywood.


The incident itself occurred in October 2021, when Baldwin discharged a revolver on set after being told it was a “cold gun.” The weapon, however, contained a live round, fatally striking Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza. 


Armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed was later convicted of loading the live ammunition. 


Baldwin’s wife, Hilaria, stood by him throughout the ordeal, even breaking down in court when the case was dismissed. 


Together, the couple are raising seven children, while Baldwin also shares an adult daughter, Ireland, with his former wife, Kim Basinger.
