‘Rust’ Armorer to Stay in Jail as Lawyers Appeal Verdict in Alec Baldwin Shooting
A judge denied a request to release 'Rust' armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed pending her appeal.
Prosecutors alleged that she inadvertently brought live bullets onto the set — a major breach of film safety protocols — and failed to properly check the rounds before loading one of them into Baldwin’s gun. Baldwin is scheduled to face his own involuntary manslaughter trial in July for pointing the gun at the cinematographer, Halyna Hutchins, and, allegedly, pulling the trigger. The defense is expected to file an appeal on numerous other grounds as well, including other alleged defects with the jury instructions and the prosecution’s inadvertent sharing of attorney-client text messages with a key witness.
