Rust film armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed was "negligent" and "unprofessional" in her role overseeing prop weapons and ammunition, and her actions caused the on-set shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, prosecutors said in opening statements of her manslaughter trial in the US this morning.New Mexico prosecutor Jason Lewis said Gutierrez Reed's failures allowed six live bullets to make their way onto the set, and she did not make vital safety checks that would have caught the problem."The evidence you're going to hear throughout this trial is that the defendant was unprofessional and that she failed to do the essential safety functions of her job, and that these failures resulted in live ammunition being spread throughout this entire set," he said.
