'Rust' Armorer Charged With Evidence Tampering for Allegedly Passing Off Cocaine After Fatal Shooting

Prosecutors claim an unnamed witness saw armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed transfer cocaine to avoid prosecution after interview about cinematographer's death.
Gutierrez Reed was previously charged with involuntary manslaughter for loading live round into prop gun that killed Halyna Hutchins.
Prosecutors allege Gutierrez Reed was drinking and smoking marijuana during production and may have been impaired at time of shooting.
Prosecutors want to keep witness' identity secret due to concerns over retaliation while Gutierrez Reed's lawyer questions lack of evidence and calls charges "character assassination."
Charges against actor Alec Baldwin, who was rehearsing with the gun, and assistant director Dave Halls have been dropped or resolved.
