Hannah Gutierrez-Reed,Rust,Alec Baldwin

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the armorer on the set of the film 'Rust,' has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for her role in the involuntary manslaughter of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was fatally shot by Alec Baldwin. The shooting has gained national attention due to Baldwin's involvement and direct role in the incident.

Hannah Gutierrez Reed, center, with her attorney Jason Bowles and paralegal Carmella Sisneros appear during her sentencing hearing in First District Court, on April 15, 2024 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The armorer on the set of the Western film "Rust," Gutierrez-Reed was convicted by a jury of involuntary manslaughter in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was fatally shot by Alec Baldwin in 2021.

Lead prosecutor Kari Morrissey had asked the judge to impose the maximum prison sentence and to classify Gutierrez-Reed as a “serious violent offender” in order to limit her eligibility for a reduced sentence. When handing down her sentencing, Sommer also said of Reed's role on set,"You were the armorer, the one that stood between a safe weapon and a weapon that could kill someone. You alone turned a safe weapon into a lethal weapon."
