Rust armourer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for involuntary manslaughter in relation to the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of Rust.
Gutierrez-Reed was found guilty last month after she handed Alec Baldwin a prop gun during a rehearsal on October 21, 2021. The gun turned out to be loaded with a live round, and Hutchins was struck when it went off in Baldwin’s hand. She died in hospital later that day.

The film armorer who loaded a live bullet into Alec Baldwin’s gun on the set of “Rust,” leading to the death of a cinematographer, was sentenced Monday to the maximum term, 18 months in prison.
Hannah Gutierrez Reed, 26, was convicted in March of involuntary manslaughter, after a jury found that her negligence caused the death of Halyna Hutchins.
Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer said that Gutierrez Reed had not shown any remorse.
“You alone turned a safe weapon into a lethal weapon,” the judge said. “But for you, Ms. Hutchins would be alive, a husband would have his partner, and a little boy would have his mother.”
Before issuing the sentence, the judge heard from Hutchins’ relatives and friends, from her agent, and from “Rust” director Joel Souza, who was struck in the shoulder by the bullet that killed her.
Hutchins’ mother, Olga Solovey, and sister, Svetlana Zemko, addressed the court in pre-recorded videos from Ukraine,...

GoFundMe has shut down the fundraiser that Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed‘s family started to help pay for the cost of an appeal because it violated the company’s rules against raising money for “the legal defense of alleged financial and violent crimes.”
The family had launched the fundraiser ahead of Gutierrez-Reed’s scheduled sentencing for involuntary manslaughter on April 15. The 26-year-old Arizona woman faces up to 18 months in prison for her role in the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the low-budget Western. Gutierrez-Reed has been in custody since the Santa Fe jury’s verdict was read March 6.
During her trial, Gutierrez-Reed was represented pro bono by New Mexico attorney Jason Bowles. The GoFundMe, begun by her father, longtime entertainment industry armorer Thell Reed, asked donors to contribute to appeals expenses, with a fundraising goal of $100,000.

Attorneys for “Rust” armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed asked on Wednesday that she be sentenced to probation for her role in the accidental death of the film’s cinematographer.
Gutierrez Reed is due to be sentenced on Monday on a charge of involuntary manslaughter for negligently loading a live bullet into Alec Baldwin’s gun. She faces a maximum of 18 months in prison.
In a memo to the court on Wednesday, her lawyers argued that Gutierrez Reed has already suffered from a “press deluge” surrounding the case, and that her life will be forever altered regardless of the judge’s sentence.
The defense also argued that Gutierrez Reed has wanted to express her “deep sadness” to the family of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, but that pending legal proceedings have prevented her from doing so. Joel Souza, the film’s director, was also wounded in the shooting.
