Jury Selected For Alec Baldwin’s Involuntary Manslaughter ‘Rust’ Trial; Opening Statements Set For Wednesday Morning
It took most of the day, but a jury has been seated in the 30 Rock vet's trial in Santa Fe
The selection of the dozen jurors and four alternates today now means that opening statements by prosecutors and the 30 Rock vet’s s Quinn Emanuel attorneys will begin Wednesday in Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer’s Santa Fe County courtroom. Hutchins was killed and Rust director Joel Souza was injured on October 21, 2021 after the Colt .45 Baldwin was pointing at the cinematographer shot off a live round during a rehearsal at the Bonanza Creek Ranch near Santa Fe. Though Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was sentenced to 18 months in a state prison on April 15, after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter on March 6, no full explanation has been given yet for how a live round got on the set of the indie Western.
