Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed branded jurors 'a**holes' and 'idiots' in ... trends now
Prosecutors are asking for an extra 18 months in jail for Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, who faces sentencing Monday after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter over the death of Halyna Hutchins.
Hutchins was accidentally shot dead during filming on the set of Rust in October 2021 when a gun Alec Baldwin was practicing with discharged live ammo that was the responsibility of Gutierrez-Reed.
Prosecutors blamed Gutierrez-Reed at a two-week trial for unwittingly bringing live ammunition onto the set of 'Rust' where it was expressly prohibited. They also said she failed to follow basic gun safety protocols.
The jury convicted her in March of involuntary manslaughter which carries a felony sentence of up to 18 months and a $5,000 fine.
They say Gutierrez-Reed, 26, has shown no remorse over her actions and used foul language to describe the jurors who convicted her and should have her sentence doubled.

Special prosecutors Kari Morrissey and Jason Lewis filed a response to a request by Gutierrez-Reed to be granted a conditional discharge by arguing she deserves the exact opposite.
Morrissey urged the judge to impose the maximum prison sentence and designate Gutierrez-Reed as a 'serious violent offender' to limit her eligibility for a sentence reduction later, describing the defendant's behavior on the set of 'Rust' as exceptionally reckless.
She said Gutierrez-Reed has shown a lack of remorse, citing comments by Gutierrez-Reed in phone calls from jail conversations with her mom, boyfriend and her attorney's paralegal that are monitored by authorities.
Those comments include referring to the jury that convicted her as 'a**holes,' 'idiots' and 'r*****s.'
They've also said that she wants Baldwin, who fired the gun that killed Hutchins, to go to jail as well and refuses to testify at his upcoming trial because 'she shouldn't be subpoenaed if Baldwin didn't show up for her.'
'Hannah wants them to put Alec Baldwin in jail also,' prosecutors added in the filing.
