Jury selection for the Alec Baldwin trial begins on Tuesday, with opening statements expected to occur on Wednesday. This means all 12 jurors plus alternates are expected to be chosen on Tuesday.
With most celebrity trials, jury selection can take up to a number of weeks as the lawyers and judges vet the potential selections to make sure they are biased enough to sit on the jury. However, this may not be the case for the upcoming Alec Baldwin trial. This may seem highly unusual, especially after the latest high-profile case, Donald Trump's hush money trial, in which jury selection took around a week.
The jury selection should be quick because, in New Mexico, where the trial is occurring, residents selected for jury duty receive an online questionnaire that lists all the cases a juror could serve on.Because of this, attorneys have already had their time to review the answers and know who they want to strike from the jury or question further. The judge plans on questioning the 78 potential jurors as a group on Tuesday.
