\u201cRust\u201d armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed blasted the jurors who convicted her of manslaughter charges in recorded jail phone conversations as \u201cidiots\u201d and \u201ca–holes\u201d and complained that they took only two hours to deliberate, according to a recent filing by prosecutors.<\/p>\n

Those crude comments by Gutierrez-Reed were among the revelations made by prosecutors ahead of her sentencing on Monday. Gutierrez-Reed also said she wants Alec Baldwin, who was handling the gun that fired the fatal shot on the movie set in 2021, to go to jail, too, and that she won\u2019t testify at his upcoming criminal trial if subpoenaed.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors Kari Morrissey and Jason Lewis contend these comments show why Gutierrez-Reed should not receive a conditional discharge, which is what her lawyers are seeking.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors are seeking the maximum penalty of 18 months in prison. They write in the filing that Gutierrez-Reed\u2019s conversations\u00a0with her mom, boyfriend and her attorney\u2019s paralegal\u00a0demonstrate her \u201ccomplete and total failure to accept responsibility for her actions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gutierrez-Reed\u2019s nearly two-week criminal trial centered on her role in the October 2021 \u201cRust\u201d film set shooting. Baldwin held a prop gun\u00a0that fired a live round, killing the film\u2019s cinematographer, Halyna Hutchins. The bullet also injured director Joel Souza.<\/p>\n

\u201cHannah wants them to put Alec Baldwin in jail also,\u201d prosecutors wrote. Gutierrez-Reed said that if she is subpoenaed for Baldwin\u2019s trial she will not show up because \u201cshe shouldn\u2019t be subpoenaed if Baldwin didn\u2019t show up for her,\u201d the filing said.<\/p>\n

According to the filing, Gutierrez-Reed requested her legal team ask Hutchins\u2019 widower and son to speak on her behalf at the sentencing. She has also complained about how the shooting has negatively affected her life and modeling career, \u201cwhile never expressing genuine remorse at any time,\u201d the filing states.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said Gutierrez-Reed brought live rounds on set by failing to properly inspect the \u201cdummy\u201d rounds she provided to the set and failed to check the rounds that were later confirmed as live ammo in one actor\u2019s gun belt and Alec Baldwin\u2019s revolver.<\/p>\n

The filing also notes that Gutierrez-Reed has another felony charge pending for allegedly hiding a firearm from security at a New Mexico bar and sneaking it into the venue. The filing says, \u201cUpon successfully circumventing the security at the bar she went into the restroom and made a selfie video stating \u2018They checked my purse but they didn\u2019t cheek my butt cheeks! Wah, wah, wah.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked for comment on the jail calls revealed by the prosecution, defense attorney Jason Bowles said Saturday, \u201cWe will be filing a reply most likely tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the prosecutors\u2019 filing, the jail calls include mentions of other inmates saying, \u201cI can\u2019t believe they threw your pretty little white ass in here for nothing\u201d; and that Gutierrez-Reed likes tap water and hard jail beds and thinks the \u201ccat food isn\u2019t too bad.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gutierrez-Reed also talked about the witnesses, who she said lied and said \u201cshe didn\u2019t need to be shaking the dummies all the time,\u201d the filing said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHannah thinks the producers should be in jail while complaining about first assistant director Dave Halls and how he \u2018f—ed Hannah to save his own ass,\u2019\u201d the filing said.<\/p>\n

During his emotional trial\u00a0testimony, Halls said he should have checked the gun more thoroughly and admitted that he \u201cdid an improper check of that firearm.\u201d<\/p>\n

Halls, who also served as the film\u2019s safety coordinator, pleaded no contest to negligent use of a deadly weapon last year and as part of a\u00a0plea deal\u00a0was sentenced to six months of unsupervised probation.<\/p>\n

Baldwin\u2019s defense team has asked the judge to dismiss manslaughter charges against the actor\u00a0over concerns that testimony was \u201cunfairly stacking the deck\u201d against him in grand jury proceedings by diverting attention away from exculpatory evidence and witnesses.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said they offered Baldwin a \u201cvery favorable plea agreement,\u201d similar to what David Halls got, but rescinded the offer after learning that Baldwin planned to accept the deal and create a documentary with interviews from case witnesses.<\/p>\n

Baldwin is scheduled to go to trial in July.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[ad_2]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
