Judge denies request to free Hannah Gutierrez, armorer in fatal ‘Rust’ movie

LA Times

A New Mexico judge has declined to release Hannah Gutierrez, the armorer in the fatal “Rust” movie shooting. A New Mexico judge has ruled that Hannah Gutierrez, the weapons handler in the ill-fated western movie “Rust,” must remain in prison for her role in the fatal shooting of the film’s cinematographer. The judge took another look at Gutierrez’s conviction after New Mexico’s prosecution of Baldwin collapsed over the summer amid allegations of misconduct by Morrissey and Santa Fe County sheriff’s deputies. After Baldwin was cleared, Bowles argued that his client was entitled to a new trial or a dismissal of her case due to such “prosecutorial misconduct.” Last week, Bowles presented his reasoning to the judge, saying additional evidence — including a supplemental report from the state’s ballistics expert and an interview with the weapons and ammunition provider — was not provided to the defense team as it prepared for Gutierrez’s trial.
