Alec Baldwin’s ‘Rust’ Manslaughter Trial Set for July


Alec Baldwin's trial on involuntary manslaughter charges is scheduled to begin July 9.

The trial of Alec Baldwin on involuntary manslaughter in the accidental shooting on the set of “ Rust ” will begin on July 9, a judge in Santa Fe, N.M., ruled on Monday. Baldwin’s attorneys, led by Alex Spiro, had wanted the trial to start a month earlier, on June 13, indicating at a hearing last week that the actor is eager to have the case heard as soon as possible. Spiro also indicated that he would file a motion to throw out the indictment, arguing that certain judicial orders were violated during the grand jury proceeding.
