Rust’s western gun expert will be sent to prison

Rust western gunman Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, who was found guilty in March of manslaughter in the 2021 death of cinematographer Galina Hutchins, has been sentenced to a maximum sentence of 18 months in prison.
According to legal expert Emily D. Baker, a former Los Angeles County deputy district attorney, the sentence handed down by New Mexico Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer should be a “wake-up call” for Alec Baldwin, 66, who will also stand trial in July for manslaughter. In his case, the decision may be based on a precedent already set.
Recall that 26-year-old Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was responsible for the prop guns used for the filming of the western “Rust”.
