Alec Baldwin’s involuntary manslaughter trial is scheduled to begin in July, TheWrap has learned. The “Rust” update comes more than two years after the Santa Fe shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in October 2021.
In January, a grand jury indicted Baldwin on two charges for his role in the shooting: Involuntary Manslaughter (Negligent Use of a Firearm) and Involuntary Manslaughter (Without Due Caution or Circumspection). He has since pleaded not guilty.
Jury selection is now set to begin on July 9, with opening statements planned for the following day. The trial is expected to last eight days, according to a Monday scheduling order.
