‘Rust’ Armorer Told Detectives She Checked Dummy Rounds ‘Most of the Time’


Hannah Gutierrez Reed told detectives in an interview that she checked dummy bullets "most of the time."

SANTA FE, N.M. — “ Rust ” armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed told detectives that she brought dummy rounds to set that were left over from a previous film, and that had been loose in a bag in her car. On Tuesday, jurors were shown a police interview from November 2021, in which Gutierrez Reed said that she had used dummies on “Rust” that were left over from “The Old Way,” a Nicolas Cage film she had worked on a few weeks earlier. The defense has maintained that Gutierrez Reed was not responsible for bringing the live bullets on set, and has instead pointed the finger at Seth Kenney, who supplied guns and ammo to the production.
