‘Rust’ Armorer Sentenced to 18 Months in Alec Baldwin’s Shooting of Halyna Hutchins


Hannah Gutierrez Reed, the armorer on "Rust," was sentenced Monday to 18 months in prison for her role in the death of the film's cinematographer.

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. 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. In a memo last week, prosecutor Kari Morrissey wrote that Gutierrez Reed’s jail calls show she is not remorseful, and still pins the blame on others, including Baldwin, the film’s producers, and the paramedics who tended to Hutchins after she was shot.
