Alec Baldwin Faces Involuntary Manslaughter Trial in Fatal Shooting

Actor Alec Baldwin is facing involuntary manslaughter charges for the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the movie 'Rust.' The trial, set to begin on July 9, will focus on Baldwin's handling of a prop gun that resulted in Hutchins' death. Key points include the confusion at the movie set and details of the revolver used. Prosecutors argue that Baldwin acted recklessly, disregarding safety protocols, while the defense asserts he did not intentionally fire the gun. The trial is expected to be emotionally charged, with jurors tasked to decide Baldwin's fate based on a single felony count of involuntary manslaughter punishable by up to 18 months in prison if convicted.
