Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed is seen handing over the gun used by Alec Baldwin to accidentally kill cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, telling the officers then told crew how 'scared' she was, new videos played at her trial reveal. By pointing a gun at another person, Baldwin ‘violated some of the most basic gun safety rules you can ever learn’, Bowles said. Prosecutor Lewis, on the state's part, said that it was a ‘fairly chaotic’ day when the shooting happened, as the evening before a group of camera operations who had ‘some concerns about safety issues on set sent an email to the production team saying they were going to be quitting.’ Baldwin, the lead actor and a co-producer on the Western movie Rust, was pointing a gun at cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during a rehearsal outside Santa Fe in October 2021 when the gun went off, killing her The next day the producers decided to ‘push ahead with filming anyway and use less camera equipment’, as they tried to ‘improvise and make do with what they had’. ‘During lunch hour Miss Gutierrez took the gun from Mr Baldwin and she took it back to the safe, the gun safe that was loaded on a prop cart,' the prosecutor told the jury.
