“Rust” cinematographer Halyna Hutchins’ family responded Wednesday to armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed being found guilty of manslaughter, saying they are “satisfied that the jury, based on the evidence” found her “guilty beyond a reasonable doubt for her part in the taking of Halyna’s life.”

“Halyna’s parents and her sister have always wanted everyone who is responsible for Halyna’s death to be held accountable,” the statement from attorneys Gloria Allred and John Carpenter, made on behalf of the family, said of the verdict.

“We look forward to the justice system continuing to make sure that everyone else who is responsible for Halyna’s death is required to face the legal consequences for their actions,” they concluded.
