Hannah Gutierrez Read Found Guilty of Involuntary Manslaughter
Hannah Gutierrez Read, the armor on the set of the movie Rust, was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter after a New Mexico jury deliberated for just two and a half hours. The incident resulted in the death of cinematographer Helena Hutchins, who was shot with a live round fired by actor Alec Baldwin during a rehearsal. The jury determined that Gutierrez Read failed to perform basic safety checks on the firearms, leading to the tragic event. The verdict has now shifted attention to Baldwin's upcoming involuntary manslaughter trial scheduled to start on July 10th.
