Hannah Gutierrez-Reed will remain behind bars as the Rust armorer awaits sentencing on her involuntary manslaughter conviction, a New Mexico judge ruled today. “Keep in mind there was a death that the jury determined was caused by her so I’m not releasing her,” said Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer in a virtual hearing on motions filed by Gutierrez-Reed’s defense team for her release and a new trial.
The new trial effort was also shut down by Judge Sommer on Friday. After a two-week trial, Gutierrez-Reed was found guilty on Match 6 of involuntary manslaughter in the fatal October 21, 2021 shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the indie Western.
The seven woman and five men jury found the ex-armorer not guilty of the charge of evidence tampering. Special Prosecutors Kari Morrissey and Jason Lewis argued Gutierrez-Reed was responsible for live rounds getting in the gun Alec Baldwin was holding on the Rust set at Bonanza Creek Ranch.
