Next week, a trial is set to begin for a movie weapons supervisor involved in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of the film 'Rust.' The case revolves around the central question of how live ammunition ended up on a movie set where it was strictly prohibited.
Investigation findings uncovered six live rounds of ammunition in various locations on the set, including the one that resulted in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and the injury of director Joel Souza. Special prosecutors claim they have substantial evidence showing that Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the movie's armorer, unknowingly brought live rounds onto the set when she first started working on the film. They have photographs showing the presence of live rounds on set days before the tragedy occurred. Additionally, they plan to present testimony that Gutierrez-Reed had sought and purchased live ammunition prior to the shooting.
