Gutierrez-Reed’s involvement and negligence were seen in this incident.

Closing Arguments Of The Case

The Deputy District Attorney highlighted the severity of the breach in safety standards and measures in the set, stating there were many chances to stop the incident from happening.

In the same argument, Assistant Director Dave Halls Sánchez stated, “He didn’t pull the trigger; Ms. Reed pulled the trigger by letting something dangerous happen.”

Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer stated in this matter, “The reason why I’m going to remand you is you are now convicted, and this is a death,”

Sommer added, “It’s criminal negligence, but it’s still a death.” After that, Assistant Director David Halls was sentenced to 6 months in prison and a $500 fine with 24 hours of community service.

At the closing of the case, the Jury decided Reed would be guilty of involuntary manslaughter.

Reed will not face 18 months of prison with a $ 5,000 USD fine. However, the exact date for her sentencing has not been scheduled.

Similarly, Baldwin has also been charged with involuntary manslaughter and is blamed for the death of Hutchin.

Alec Baldwin will face his trial in July 2024.

The shocking incident happened in a movie rehearsal session back on 21 October 2021.

Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was shot dead during the incident due to a prop gun that was loaded.

Following this tragic incident, investigators became aware of the poor safety protocol on set, resulting in criminal charges against Alec Baldwin and Rust Armorer Hannah Gutierrez Convicted.
