Alec Baldwin, 64, has been formally charged in connection to the death of Rust cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The papers, which were filed today, reportedly contain a 10-page-long probable cause affidavit. Baldwin has maintained his innocence and intends to fight the charges, which could result in a prison sentence of up to five years if convicted. The film’s armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, has also been formally charged, while assistant director of Rust, David Halls, has signed a plea agreement in which he will plead guilty to the negligent use of a deadly weapon.
In October 2021, the cast and crew of Rust were filming at a ranch on the outskirts of Santa Fe when Baldwin reportedly pointed a pistol at Halyna and the gun went off, resulting in her death. Joel Souza, the filmmaker, was also injured in the incident. Prosecutors have noted that Baldwin’s involvement in the actual shooting as well as being a producer for the film has impacted their decision to file the charges.
Going forward, Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reed will be issued a summons to appear in court where prosecutors are expected to forgo a jury and rely on a judge to determine if there is enough evidence to move the case to trial. It could take up to 60 days for this decision to be made.
