Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza, who led the initial investigation into Hutchins’ death, described “a degree of neglect” on the film set. But he left decisions about potential criminal charges to prosecutors after delivering the results of a yearlong investigation in October. That report did not specify how live ammunition wound up on the film set.

New Mexico’s Office of the Medical Investigator determined the shooting was an accident following the completion of an autopsy and a review of law enforcement reports.Article content The armorer who oversaw firearms on the set, Gutierrez Reed, has been the subject of much of the scrutiny in the case, along with an independent ammunition supplier. An attorney for Gutierrez Reed has said she did not put a live round in the gun that killed Hutchins, and she believes she was the victim of sabotage. Authorities said they have found no evidence of that.Article content

State workplace safety regulators said that immediate gun-safety concerns were addressed when “Rust” ceased filming, and that a return to filming in New Mexico would be accompanied by new safety inspections.Article content

Alec Baldwin charged with involuntary manslaughter in Rust movie shootingA prosecutor on Thursday announced charges against Alec Baldwin and Rust’s armorer after more than a year of investigation into the October 2021 shooting on a film set outside Santa Fe Horrible decision. The film's armorer & prop master should be held responsible not the actor. If he is convicted then it sets a horrible precedent, every time a stunt goes wrong, the actor could be held liable. About time. If you are in charge, and you are the producer, and safety is lax and precautions were not taken, then you have a degree of responsibility.
