TL;DR Summary

Alec Baldwin faces a felony involuntary manslaughter charge following a grand jury indictment related to the 2021 fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of "Rust." The indictment provides prosecutors with two alternative standards for the charge, based on the negligent use of a firearm or causing death without due caution. Baldwin's defense attorneys plan to fight the charge, which carries a potential prison sentence of up to 18 months. The case also involves upcoming trials for "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed and insights into prosecution strategies and witness testimony.
