'You alone turned a safe weapon into a lethal weapon,' Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer said.
"Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez was given the maximum sentence of 18 months in prison for involuntary manslaughter in the 2021 fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Hutchins' friend Jen White told the court, "I still look for her. I still expect to see her. I still wonder what adventures she's on ... then my heart drops through my feet.""She inspired me. And I don't think she knew that because I never got to tell her. She was one of my favorite people in the world," White said, as Gutierrez wiped away tears."I beg you to impose the maximum sentence," White said to the judge. "She needs to be held accountable.
"She was a touchstone for all who knew her. And those of us who were lucky enough to have shared in her fleeting time on this planet are better for it," he said. Hutchins' father said in a statement read in court on his behalf, "Each person responsible ... needs to carry the punishment that is equal to their guilt. Maybe, just maybe, this might prevent the same type of tragedies in the future to others, and spare other parents from such a heart-wrenching catastrophe."
"This conviction and press deluge will forever impact her life going forward, including with job prospects, and simply trying to lead a 'normal' life again someday," her attorneys wrote. "Stunningly, Ms. Gutierrez requested during jail calls that her legal team request that Ms. Hutchins' husband and son be contacted and asked to speak on her behalf at her sentencing," prosecutors wrote.
During the two-week trial, prosecutors presented evidence they said showed Gutierrez was responsible for bringing six live rounds onto the set -- and did not discover them for 12 days before the deadly shooting by failing to perform industry-standard safety practices. Morrissey said that meant Gutierrez was not checking dummy rounds to ensure they were not live rounds -- such as by shaking them -- and that there was a game of "Russian roulette" every time an actor had a gun loaded with dummies. She also said they have "mountains of circumstantial evidence" that Gutierrez brought the live rounds onto the set.
