'Rust' armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed could plead guilty to separate gun charge: Reports

"Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed is expected to accept a plea agreement in a 2023 unlawful gun carry case, reports say.
In November, Gutierrez-Reed was charged with unlawfully carrying a firearm in a New Mexico bar. Now the armorer, who is serving 18 months in prison for involuntary manslaughter in the fatal "Rust" shooting, has reached a tentative plea deal on this separate felony charge, according to People and Variety.
She allegedly brought a gun into the bar in October 2021, weeks before the death of "Rust" cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, the outlets report. A grand jury indicted Gutierrez-Reed on the charge last fall.
The outlets reports that Gutierrez-Reed has agreed to serve 18 months probation for the gun carry charge as part of the agreement.
Gutierrez-Reed was found guilty in March for the 2021 on-set killing of Hutchins. A jury found her guilty of criminal negligence for mistakenly loading a live round into the revolver Alec Baldwin was using.

"The word remorse: a deep regret coming from a sense of guilt for past wrongs," Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer told Gutierrez-Reed at the time. "That's not you."

In July, Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter charge was abruptly dismissed after Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer handed down her surprise ruling on the third day of the "30 Rock" actor's trial. Sommer ruled on the grounds that prosecutors and law enforcement withheld evidence that might be favorable to the actor's defense.
Days later, Gutierrez-Reed's legal team requested her conviction be dismissed in light of the ruling, according to Rolling Stone and The Associated Press.
