GoFundMe has actually closed down the charity event that Corrosion armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed‘s family started to help pay for the cost of an appeal because it violated the company’ s rules against raising moneyfor “the legal defense of alleged financial and violent crimes.”
The family members had actually introduced the charity event in advance of Gutierrez-Reed’s set up sentencing for uncontrolled murder on April 15. The 26-year-old Arizona female confronts 18 months behind bars for her function in the unintended capturing fatality of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the collection of the low-budget Western. Gutierrez-Reed has actually remained in guardianship given that the Santa Fe court’s judgment read March 6.
Throughout her test, Gutierrez-Reed was stood for for the public good by New Mexico lawyer Jason Bowles. The GoFundMe, started by her daddy, long time show business armorer Thell Reed, asked contributors to add to charms expenditures, with a fundraising objective of $100,000.
The capturing happened Oct. 21, 2021, when an antique revolver dealt with by Alec Baldwin went off while he was exercising attracting the prop weapon. Hutchins was eliminated and supervisor Joel Souza was wounded..
Throughout the test, district attorneys stated that Gutierrez-Reed, that has actually kept that she thought she packed Baldwin’s weapon with “dummy” rounds, was reckless in taking care of guns and ammo on the Corrosion collection. The defense suggested that Gutierrez-Reed was a scapegoat for bigger safety and security problems on the low-budget Western that she can not manage and faulted Baldwin, one of greater than a loads manufacturers on the movie, to name a few. Baldwin, that is readied to most likely to test in July on uncontrolled murder costs, has actually begged blameless.
The message going along with the Reed family members’s GoFundMe stated, “Gutierrez-Reed was singled out by prosecutors as the main person responsible, based on a botched, suspiciously biased investigation by New Mexico authorities, despite what official OSHA reports and OSHA investigators found to be unsafe actions and a culture of lack of safety throughout the production, clearly placing blame on the film’s producers and producing staff.” The family members’s demand takes place to state that“The judicial scales in Hannah’s case are unfair and unbalanced. Justice for Halyna does not mean justice for Hannah.”
Ahead of Gutierrez-Reed’s sentencing, fans of the armorer, consisting of Edward Romero, a previous ambassador to Spain under Head Of State Clinton and Hispanic neighborhood leader in New Mexico, and Sacramento Kings head instructor Mike Brown have actually corresponded to the court on her part.
A sentencing memorandum Gutierrez-Reed’s lawyers submitted with the court April 10 states that the armorer has actually been enduring stress and anxiety, worry and anxiety given that the capturing, and has actually been looking for therapy at the Mohave Mental Health And Wellness Facility in Arizona.
“Days after this tragedy occurred, Ms. Gutierrez-Reed wanted to express her deep sadness regarding this tragedy and the death of Halyna, to the Hutchins family,” the sentencing memorandum states.“Legal proceedings and the looming investigation, however, made that impossible. Though she exercised her constitutional right to a jury trial, it did not mean that she didn’t and doesn’t still feel incredibly saddened and heartbroken by what happened on that tragic day on the Rust set. The tragic series of events that unfolded that day destroyed and altered many people’s lives, including Ms. Gutierrez’s Reed’s.”
