'Rust' Armorer Appeals Conviction in Fatal Shooting Incident

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed seeks to overturn her involuntary manslaughter conviction related to the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

Gutierrez-Reed's legal team has filed an appeal with the New Mexico Court of Appeals.
The armorer was sentenced to 18 months in prison for her role in the 2021 incident.
Her defense argues she was scapegoated and requests her release pending appeal.
Alec Baldwin, who fired the fatal shot, faces a separate trial in July.
Prosecutors claim Gutierrez-Reed violated safety protocols on set.
