Sarah Jones production assistant on Midnight Rider

The director of a movie about musician Gregg Allman has pleaded guilty in a train crash that killed camera assistant Sarah Jones and injured six film workers.

Director Randall Miller pleaded guilty Monday to involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespassing as part of a plea deal.

Under the deal, he will spend two years in the county jail and another eight on probation, and pay a $20,000 fine.

Also, prosecutors agreed to drop charges against his wife and business partner, Jody Savin.

Third defendant, executive producer Jay Sedrish has also pleaded guilty. He will serve 10 years on probation and pay a $10,000 fine.

In the crash a year ago, a freight train traveling 55 mph plowed into the director's crew on a Georgia railroad bridge.
