Hannah Gutierrez-Reed watches closing arguments in her manslaughter trial on Wednesday, March 6, 2024, in Santa Fe, New Mexico (via Law&Crime). Inset: Alec Baldwin holds a gun on the set of the movie “Rust” (Santa Fe Sheriff’s Office).

Attorneys for “Rust” armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, 26, filed a blistering motion on Wednesday based on rampant prosecutorial misconduct uncovered during the short-lived Alec Baldwin trial.

Last Friday, the manslaughter case against the famed actor was dismissed with prejudice amid revelations the state withheld ammunition evidence related to the shooting from the defense.

Now, Gutierrez-Reed’s attorneys say the “egregious prosecutorial misconduct” by special prosecutor Kari Morrissey necessitates the convicted woman’s release from prison, a new trial, or a dismissal.
