Convicted ‘Rust’ Armorer Will Be Sentenced in April

'Rust' armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed will be sentenced in April after being convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Halyna Hutchins.

Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed will be sentenced on April 15 after being convicted of involuntary manslaughter last week in the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. In a statement shared with Rolling Stone, Gutierrez-Reed’s lawyer, Jason Bowles, said of the upcoming sentencing, “We are confident that the Court will consider everything, including all of the mitigating evidence, and enter a judgment that is reasonable and just.” During closing arguments, prosecutors called Gutierrez-Reed “negligent,” “careless,” and “thoughtless,” arguing that she brought live ammunition to the Rust set and failed to notice the bullets had mixed with the inert dummy rounds she was loading into prop weapons.
