Armourer completes prison sentence over Rust shooting
A movie armourer convicted in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer by Alec Baldwin on the set of the western movie Rust has been released from a New Mexico prison after completing an 18-month sentence.
Prison records show Hannah Gutierrez-Reed signed out of the Western New Mexico Correctional Facility in Grants on Friday to return home to Bullhead City, Arizona, on parole related to her involuntary manslaughter conviction in the death of Halyna Hutchins in 2021.
Gutierrez-Reed also is being supervised under terms of probation for a separate conviction on a charge of unlawfully carrying a gun into a licensed liquor establishment.
Baldwin, the lead actor and co-producer for Rust, was pointing a gun at Hutchins during a rehearsal on a movie set outside Santa Fe when the revolver went off, killing Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.
A jury convicted Gutierrez-Reed of involuntary manslaughter in March in a trial overseen by Mary Marlowe Sommer, who later sentenced her to the maximum 18-month penalty.
Gutierrez-Reed has an appeal of the conviction pending in a higher court.
Jurors acquitted her of allegations she tampered with evidence in the Rust investigation.
Prosecutors blamed Gutierrez-Reed for unwittingly bringing live ammunition onto the set of Rust and for failing to follow basic gun safety protocols.
Gutierrez-Reed carried a gun into a downtown Santa Fe bar where firearms are prohibited weeks before Rust began filming.
An involuntary manslaughter charge against Baldwin was dismissed at trial in 2024 on allegations that police and prosecutors withheld evidence from the defence.
The filming of Rust was completed in Montana.
The western was released in cinemas in May.

Hilaria Baldwin 'was sure' husband Alec Baldwin 'was dead'
Hilaria Baldwin "was sure" her husband Alec Baldwin "was dead" when he suffered a terrifying health scare that left him unable to walk. The 67-year-old actor was battling "stress" in the aftermath of the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins - who lost her life in 2021 on the set of his movie 'Rust' when a prop gun discharged - and he was facing two counts of involuntary manslaughter related to the tragedy. Now his wife Hilaria has revealed her movie star husband's health went into decline several weeks before the charges were dropped in April 2023. In her book 'Manual Not Included', she wrote: "[He] became a totally different man [after the tragedy] ... "His hands became cold, and he could barely walk. I brought him to the emergency room. They did many tests. It was more stress, the doctors said ... It was like he was turning off." She went on to reveal Alec suffered a further scare a few days later and she rushed him to hospital. Hilaria explained: "[I] found him shaking, unable to stand up. He still refused to see the doctor, doing his best Alec-curmudgeon again to make me leave him alone ... "[As we arrived at the hospital he] slumped back, eyes rolling, mouth open ... "Mikey, our driver, ran inside the hospital to get help. I was sure Alec was dead. I thought I was going to vomit from feeling so helpless and heartbroken. How could this be happening?" She went on to reveal Alec stayed in hospital for a week and was unable to get around "without the help of a walker". Alec then had to go back to work to finish off 'Rust' and Hilaria explained they decided to keep his ill health a secret from the rest of the cast and crew - fitting him with an orthopedic boot so he could blame his mobility issues on an injury. Hilaria previously revealed Alec was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after he was charged. During an episode of the couple's reality show 'The Baldwins', she explained: "Everyone who is close to Alec has seen his mental health decline. "He was diagnosed with PTSD, and he says in his darkest moments, 'If an accident had to have happened this day, why am I still here? Why couldn't it have been me?'' Alec added in a confessional: 'This past year was just terrible. There were times I'd lay in bed. I'd go, 'Wow, my kids. I can't get up.' That's not like me. I'm not like that at all, not in any way am I like that. Never." The charges against the actor was dropped in April 2023, but he was indicted again in January 2024 and went on trial in July of that year. The trial collapsed after just three days and the charges against him were dismissed with prejudice.
