TL;DR Summary

Attorneys for "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed are seeking her release from jail and a new trial, citing a recent New Mexico Supreme Court ruling that may lead to her conviction being overturned due to unclear jury instructions. They argue that the use of "and/or" in the instructions allowed for confusion and misdirection, similar to a recent case where the conviction was overturned. Gutierrez Reed's attorneys are urging for her release while the appeal is pending, and Alec Baldwin's lawyers have also filed a separate challenge to the jury instructions used in his case.
