Yesterday, we learned which direction the courts seem to be leaning in handling the shooting death of Halyna Hutchins on the set of Alec Baldwin’s movie «Rust» in 2021. Armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was previously found guilty of involuntary manslaughter as a result of the shooting and on Monday, New Mexico District Court Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer gave Gutierrez-Reed the maximum sentence of 18 months behind bars. The day was reportedly filled with highly emotional testimony and the armorer openly wept throughout the proceedings before being led away to begin serving her sentence. Now the focus shifts to the upcoming trial of Alec Baldwin, the person who actually fired the fatal shot. (NY Post)
“Rust” armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed sobbed throughout her court hearing as she was sentenced to 18 months, the maximum possible sentence, on Monday for her involvement in the accidental shooting death of Halyna Hutchins by Alec Baldwin in 2021.
Gutierrez-Reed, 26, was led into court shackled at the wrist and wearing khaki jail scrubs with a white longsleeve T-shirt.
Her sentence was handed down by New Mexico District Court Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer after the rookie armorer was convicted of involuntary manslaughter last month.
You can’t blame all of the people involved for being highly emotional throughout these proceedings. Hutchins died a pointless death that never should have happened.
