Matthew Hutchins, the widower of slain Rust cinematographer Halyna, was spotted moving items out of a female friend's home in Hollywood Wednesday.
Hutchins, 38, was seen moving with the mystery woman just days after the FBI concluded that Alec Baldwin did pull the trigger of the gun that killed Hutchins on the set of Rust – despite him repeatedly stating that he did not.
Matt helped the mystery woman for over an hour, moving items out and loading them into the vehicles, including Christmas wrapping paper, a suitcase and bulkier furniture pieces.
On the hot day, Matt covered up with a baseball cap and his friend stayed cool in denim shorts and a black vest. They shared the duties and seemed comfortable in each others company.
With the cars packed they headed in the direction of Matt's house for the evening. The next day, Matt visited 'Twigs and Thyme' floral studio in Beverly Hills and seemed interested in the large decorative plants on display in the window.

Baldwin, 64, accidentally shot dead Halyna Hutchins, 42, on the set of his film ‘Rust’ in October 2021, and injured director Joel Souza in the incident in Bonanza Creek Ranch, Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Hutchins has been critical of the actor for shifting blame and making himself sound like a victim, despite having been the one to pull the trigger.
'He said essentially he felt grief but no guilt. Almost sounds like he was the victim,' Matt Hutchins told TODAY in an interview that aired in February.
'And hearing him blame Halyna in the interview and shift responsibility to others and seeing him cry about it, I just feel like - are we really supposed to feel bad about you, Mr. Baldwin?'
Hutchins, a Harvard-educated lawyer, told TODAY he felt that the majority of the blame lay with Baldwin.

The actor has consistently denied that he pulled the trigger on the gun, which was supposed to be loaded with dummy bullets - but a new report, seen by ABC News, concluded that it could not have been fired unless the trigger was pulled.
It means that he could still face criminal charges for the incident, with Santa Fe Sheriff's department confirming that the case will be passed to the District Attorney.
Authorities said on August 12 that they are waiting on the actors phone records, and the DA has been working with Suffolk County Police in New York and Baldwin’s attorneys to acquire them.
The records will be reviewed by detectives, and a case file will then be sent to the DA to determine if any charges will be filed.
The FBI forensic report was examining all of the areas of the fatal accident as part of a broader investigation to see if any criminal charges can be brought.
Part of the report found that the revolver, a single-action .45 Colt caliber F.lli Pietta, could not have been fired without someone pulling the trigger.
They made the decision by conducting an accidental discharge test, but it is unclear if this was with the exact same gun or an identical copy, according to ABC News.

It states that the gun, when working properly, will not release a bullet and primer at the same time just by someone fiddling with the hammer.
Baldwin previously claimed that is what he was doing when the gun fired, in an interview with ABC last year.
He said that he had pulled back the hammer and posed with it for the camera while Halyna coached him on the positioning.
In interviews with investigators Baldwin said he was told that he was holding a 'cold gun,' meaning that it was loaded with dummy rounds.
The actor said that he released it, and it fired without him pulling the trigger, with Baldwin adding ‘I did not pull the trigger.’
However, the FBI report found that the action could set of a gunshot sound without discharging a bullet.
The report could still lead to criminal charges against the actor and others involved in the accidental shooting, with Santa Fe cops still investigating Hutchins' death.
Those FBI reports were immediately forwarded to the New Mexico Office of the Medical Investigator OMI, who then passed them to the Sheriffs Office.
