Alec Baldwin Faces Jury Selection In Involuntary Manslaughter Case

Alec Baldwin maintains his innocence

Actor Alec Baldwin was present in the courtroom as Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer initiated the jury selection process on Tuesday. The proceedings faced a two-hour delay attributed to technical issues and heat in the courtroom, prompting a relocation to a different room to continue.

Addressing the potential jurors, Judge Sommer emphasized the gravity of their role, stating that if selected, they would be responsible for determining Baldwin's guilt or innocence in the case. Baldwin is facing charges of involuntary manslaughter in connection with the tragic shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

If convicted, Baldwin could potentially face a sentence of up to 18 months in prison. The case has garnered significant media attention and public interest, with many closely following the developments as the legal process unfolds.
