Rust Movie Trial

Hannah Gutierrez Reed is requesting immediate release from prison as the 'Rust' armorer prepares to seek a new trial.

Alec Baldwin's 'Rust' armourer requests prison release days before actor's involuntary manslaughter trial

The armorer's team claimed the state did not disclose a report that found"unexplained toolmarks on critical surfaces of the trigger and sear" of the Pietta 45 Colt revolver replica used on the Western film set. Gutierrez Reed's attorney, Jason Bowles, pointed out that the marks were not"the result of the damage incurred during the FBI’s impact testing.

The report showing the"unexplained" toolmarks would likely have"bolstered" Gutierrez Reed's defense, according to the court documents. Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer sentenced Gutierrez Reed to 18 months in prison after she was convicted in March.
