'Rust' Armorer Receives 18-Month Sentence for Fatal On-Set Shooting

TL;DR Summary
Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the armorer for the film "Rust," has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. The judge cited her recklessness and failure to accept responsibility for the incident. Gutierrez-Reed's sentencing comes after Alec Baldwin, who was rehearsing with the gun that fired the fatal shot, was indicted for involuntary manslaughter. Prosecutors argued that Gutierrez-Reed's conduct led to live ammunition on set, while the defense claimed she was rushed and lacked resources. The trial sheds light on what Baldwin may face in his upcoming trial.
