Lead detective in Alec Baldwin case to testify, convicted armorer may be called in ‘Rust’ trial

The lead detective in the killing of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on a New Mexico movie set is planned to be on the stand at the involuntary manslaughter trial of Alec Baldwin. Alexandria Hancock of the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office will face questioning Friday from prosecutors seeking to cast Baldwin as reckless. Defense lawyers are looking to portray him as just an actor doing his job. Prosecutors may also call the film's armorer to the stand. Hannah Gutierrez-Reed has already been convicted of involuntary manslaughter for the shooting. Her lawyer says she'll take the Fifth Amendment if she's called to testify.
