A lawyer for “Rust” armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed said that he plans to file a motion to have her involuntary manslaughter case dismissed, following the revelation this week that the prosecution failed to turn over evidence while prosecuting Alec Baldwin, leading to the judge throwing out his case for the manslaughter of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

“We are going to be filing on the same basis on discovery violations which have occurred throughout her case and continue to occur,” Gutierrez-Reed’s attorney Jason Bowles told NBC News after Baldwin’s case was dismissed. “Things that I learned today that happened, absolutely shocking.”

Gutierrez-Reed was convicted in March of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to 18 months in prison.
