Alec Baldwin's Involuntary Manslaughter Trial Begins in Santa Fe for 'Rust' Shooting, Faces 18 Months
Jul 10, 2024, 01:29 PM
The trial of Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin for involuntary manslaughter began in Santa Fe, New Mexico, nearly three years after the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the movie 'Rust'. Baldwin, 66, faces up to 18 months in prison if convicted. The incident occurred on October 21, 2021, when a reproduction Single Action Army revolver Baldwin was using during a rehearsal fired a live round, killing Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza. Prosecutors argue that Baldwin violated gun safety protocols by behaving recklessly on set, while the defense maintains that Baldwin did not commit a crime and questions why a live bullet was present. Jury selection concluded with 12 jurors and 4 alternates seated. Baldwin's wife, Hilaria Baldwin, was present in court. Opening statements have been delivered, with both sides presenting conflicting narratives about Baldwin's responsibility in the incident.
