Alec Baldwin Indicted for Involuntary Manslaughter

Actor Alec Baldwin is facing charges of felony involuntary manslaughter after a grand jury indicted him. The charges stem from the accidental shooting on the set of the movie Rust, where cinematographer Helena Hutchins was killed. Baldwin maintains that he never pulled the trigger, but recent forensic analysis determined that the gun could not have fired without the trigger being pulled. The charges against Baldwin focus on two theories of involuntary manslaughter: negligent use of a firearm and lack of due caution. The trial will likely delve into Baldwin's role as both an actor and a co-producer on the set, as well as the overall safety measures taken during filming.
