The gun supervisor for the film "Rust," on which a crew member was killed after a gun held by actor Alec Baldwin went off during rehearsal, has no idea where the real bullet came from, she says.

Hannah Gutierrez was responding to "untruths that have been told to the media," a statement released Thursday night by her attorneys to NBC News said. Santa Fe County Sheriff says Baldwin fired suspected live round on Rust set Santa Fe County Sheriff says Baldwin fired 'suspected live round' on 'Rust' set "Safety is Hannah's number one priority on set," reads the statement from attorneys Jason Bowles and Robert Gorence. "Ultimately this set would never have been compromised if live ammo were not introduced. Hannah has no idea where the live rounds came from." CNN reached out to Gutierrez's attorneys and the "Rust" production office Friday morning for comment.

Sharp pointy sticks, teeth, and fingernails.

That's reality television.

Made incorrect assumptions about the “shooter” here— you’re right.
So, this was during an “action” shot (and even if it wasn’t considering it’s Baldwin) he sure would not have pulled open the cover and clicked the cylinder beforehand... he just cocked and shot. whooeee. Whereas on a range, one would pick up a ‘peacemaker’ and open it up to check the cylinder before commencing fire.

No way would any normal trained gun owner do this— certainly wouldn’t take the word of an “armourer” idiot like this one. There is more to the story... has to be. Live rounds do not “end up on the table”.

Specifically who was “plinking” with a set pistol beforehand— sure the police will find the morons.

“I read earlier that, because of COVID-19 precautions, access to the actual set was very restricted and she was not allowed to physically be on set… just near it.”

It is always like this. The real true story is totally different than what we were first told or written.
She may be totally innocent if locked out.

Something different on a radio show from Calif. last night. Rumors are flying about. We’ll have to wait for full report.

It’s her job to watch over the firearms. She’s liable. It was the ad’s job to check the gun with the armorer. He didn’t. He’s also liable. Baldwin didn’t check to see if the gun was loaded. He’s also the producer. He’s also liable. All three of them are at fault.

Nobody wants to take responsibility. They can always blame it on Trump if all else fails.

the “armourer” is an IDIOT if she thinks this will fly. She is in, supposed to be TOTAL control of the armaments, and only prop “loads” would be allowed.

Exactly

I agree. It wouldn’t excuse her or Baldwin but it would answer her question.

Yes, what I heard was on the radio also. No reliable facts yet as far as I know.

He absolutely knew there was live ammo out there as I have no doubt that Baldwin was one of the people shooting that gun with live ammo for target practice.

I would want an old grizzled vet who was in charge of a firring range when they were in the military to be the armorer on the set if I was producing anything were guns were in play.

At the very least Hannah and Alex Baldwin need to be arrested for criminal homicide.

Don't forget Halls.
