The Walking Dead was rocked by the tragic death of Bernecker, who passed away July 14, two days after he suffered blunt-force trauma injuries after a stunt fall gone awry on the set of the show in Senoia, Georgia.
In addition to The Walking Dead, Bernecker’s TV credits included 24: Legacy and Into the Badlands.
The Walking Dead paid tribute to the stuntman in its season premiere last fall.
According to The Wrap, OSHA issued a “serious citation” on Friday and imposed the maximum fine – $12,675 – on The Walking Dead production company Stalwart Films LLC “for the company’s failure to provide adequate protection from fall hazards.”
