'Rust' Armorer's Lack of Remorse: Prosecutors Seek Maximum Sentence

The state argues that "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed showed lack of remorse in recorded jail calls, complaining about the judge, prosecutor, and jurors, and blaming others for the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. The prosecutor seeks the maximum 18-month sentence, citing Gutierrez Reed's denial of responsibility and lack of contrition, while also requesting her crime be designated as a "serious violent offense." Gutierrez Reed's defense has asked for probation, and her father launched a GoFundMe for her appeal, which was shut down by GoFundMe due to its policy against fundraising for legal defense related to violent crimes.
