"Rust Film Armorer Receives 18-Month Prison Sentence for Fatal On-Set Shooting"

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the armorer on the set of the film Rust, has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. The judge criticized Gutierrez-Reed for failing to take responsibility for her role in the incident. The trial for actor and co-producer Alec Baldwin, who was involved in the shooting, is set for July. The case has raised concerns about safety on Hollywood sets and prompted a halt in the use of real firearms in film and television productions.
