The prosecution's case revolves around the argument that the weapons supervisor acted recklessly by failing to ensure that all of the rounds she loaded into the gun that actor Alec Baldwin was holding were dummies.
armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter and evidence tampering charges in a trial that will begin on Dec. 6 over the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Gutierrez-Reed submitted the plea on Wednesday after she waived her right to an arraignment and preliminary hearing, which would’ve decided if there’s probable cause for the case to go to trial. The prosecution’s case revolves around the argument that the weapons supervisor acted recklessly when she loaded the gun on the set of the movie before handing it to actor Alec Baldwin, who was holding the firearm when it discharged during a rehearsal. She allegedly didn’t properly check all of the rounds to make sure they were dummies.
