Analyzing the Alec Baldwin Case: Negligence, Firearms, and the Tragic 'Rust' Shooting Incident
The recent developments in the "Rust" shooting incident have brought the focus back on the armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, whose negligence has been under scrutiny. The tragic death of Halyna Hutchins has raised questions about the handling of firearms on set. Hannah's history of firearm incidents, including a prior situation involving Nicolas Cage, has come to light, shedding light on her competence for the role, which she secured through her father, Thell Reed. While Alec Baldwin attended a brief training session, it is reported that he seemed distracted during the process. This has ignited discussions about the industry's firearm safety protocols and the need for stricter regulations regarding actors handling firearms or prop guns. The parallels drawn to Brandon Lee's tragic death in 1993 raise concerns about the lack of progress in ensuring set safety. The presence of live ammunition on the "Rust" set has raised further questions about the overall safety protocols.
The unfortunate loss of Halyna Hutchins has sparked a divisive debate about accountability, with some questioning the rush to place blame on Alec Baldwin, suggesting it may be influenced by unrelated personal or political factors. In contrast, others argue that the focus should remain on Hannah Gutierrez-Reed's role and responsibility in ensuring the safety of the cast and crew. These events have reignited the conversation around safety in the film industry and the need for comprehensive measures to prevent such tragedies in the future.

Responsible for overseeing all weapons on set was the production's property key assistant and armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, daughter of long-time industry armorer Thell Reed.[13] Rust was Gutierrez-Reed's second film serving as lead armorer. On her first film, The Old Way, several crew members complained about her handling of firearms, including an incident in which she discharged a weapon without warning and caused lead actor Nicolas Cage to walk off set.[14]
David Halls was the assistant director. In the aftermath of the incident, former colleagues reported that Halls faced complaints in 2019 about his behavior on two episodes of Into the Dark, in which he disregarded safety protocols by ignoring blocked exits and a fire lane.[15][16] In the same year, Halls had been fired from working on the film Freedom's Path after a firearm discharged unexpectedly on set, wounding a crew member.[17][18]

Gutierrez-Reed also said, per the documents, that Baldwin did attend a 30-minute training session but appeared "distracted and talking on his cell phone to his family during the training."

Several other live rounds were also recovered. During the investigation, a detective asked Gutierrez Reed why there would be live ammo on set.
“I have no idea,” she said at the time.
Investigators have still not determined where the live rounds came from.
