古铁雷斯-里德定于5月3日出席初步听证会。她的律师说她打算不认罪，并说她不知道枪里怎么会有实弹。
她的律师周四证实，她仍然面临指控，在一份声明中说，他们“完全期待在这个过程结束时，汉娜也将被无罪释放。”
她的律师杰森·鲍尔斯(Jason Bowles)和托德·布林(Todd Bullion)在声明中说，“真相将会大白，我们长期寻求答案的问题将会得到解答。”
这部电影的第一位助理导演大卫·霍尔斯上个月判刑六个月的无监督缓刑作为认罪协议的一部分。霍尔斯在枪击前将科尔特点45左轮手枪交给了鲍德温，他被指控过失使用致命武器。
他的听证会是在圣达菲地区检察官玛丽·卡马克-奥尔特维斯之后几天举行的宣布的她打算放弃起诉这个案子。此举紧随州众议员安德里亚·里布之后辞去特别检察官一职在案件中。
地方检察官任命卡莉·莫里西和贾森·刘易斯接替他们担任特别检察官。
在周四晚上的一份声明中，莫里西和路易斯说“新的事实被揭露出来，需要对此案进行进一步的调查和法医分析。”
“因此，我们不能在目前的时间限制和执法部门以现有形式移交的事实和证据的基础上开展工作。因此，我们将驳回对鲍德温先生的过失杀人指控，进行进一步调查，”他们说。“这一决定并没有免除Baldwin先生的刑事责任，他可能会再次受到指控。我们的后续调查将保持积极和持续。”
特别检察官表示，对古铁雷斯-里德的指控“保持不变”周五将召开一次情况会议。
《铁锈》在致命的场景拍摄后就已经停播了，重新开始拉斯特电影制作公司的一位发言人说，这是周四在蒙大拿州黄石电影农场的主要摄影工作。这部作品带着包括鲍德温在内的原制片人和主要演员回来了。
Charges dropped against Alec Baldwin in fatal on-set 'Rust' shooting: Sources
Charges against Alec Baldwin have been dropped in thefatal on-set "Rust" shooting, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Baldwin, 65, had been charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter after fatally shooting cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, 42, on the New Mexico set of the Western in October 2021. The actor was practicing a cross-draw when the gun fired, striking the cinematographer and director Joel Souza, who suffered a non-life-threatening injury.
"We are pleased with the decision to dismiss the case against Alec Baldwin and we encourage a proper investigation into the facts and circumstances of this tragic accident," Luke Nikas and Alex Spiro, the attorneys for Baldwin, said in a statement.
The Santa Fe district attorney's office declined to comment.
Baldwin's next court appearance in the case had been set for May 3. Baldwin already waived his right to appear at the preliminary hearing. He hadpleaded not guiltyto the charges in a court filing.
The film's armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, was also charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter over Hutchins' death.
Gun enhancement charges filed in the case against both Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reedwere droppedin late February.
Gutierrez-Reed has been scheduled to appear at a preliminary hearing starting on May 3. Her attorney has said she intends to plead not guilty and has said she has no idea how live rounds ended up in the gun.
Her attorneys confirmed Thursday that she still faces charges, saying in a statement that they "fully expect at the end of this process that Hannah will also be exonerated."
"The truth about what happened will come out and the questions that we have long sought answers for will be answered," her attorneys, Jason Bowles and Todd Bullion, said in the statement.
David Halls, the first assistant director for the film, wassentenced last monthto six months unsupervised probation as part of a plea deal. Halls, who handed the Colt .45 revolver to Baldwin prior to the shooting, was charged with negligent use of a deadly weapon.
His hearing came days after Santa Fe District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwiesannouncedshe was stepping away from prosecuting the case. The move followed state Rep. Andrea Reeb alsostepping down as special prosecutorin the case.
In their place, the district attorney appointed Kari Morrissey and Jason Lewis to serve as special prosecutors.
In a statement Thursday night, Morrissey and Lewis said "new facts were revealed that demand further investigation and forensic analysis in the case."
"Consequently, we cannot proceed under the current time constraints and on the facts and evidence turned over by law enforcement in its existing form. We therefore will be dismissing the involuntary manslaughter charges against Mr. Baldwin to conduct further investigation," they said. "This decision does not absolve Mr. Baldwin of criminal culpability and charges may be refiled. Our follow-up investigation will remain active and ongoing."
The special prosecutors said the charges against Gutierrez-Reed "remain unchanged." A status conference is scheduled for Friday.
"Rust," which had been on hiatus since the deadly on-set shooting,resumedprincipal photography at Yellowstone Film Ranch in Montana on Thursday, a spokesperson for Rust Movie Productions said. The production returned with the original producers and principal cast, including Baldwin.
