Jury selection begins in trial over Faith Hedgepeth killing
Original: Miguel Salguero-Olivares trial | Jury selection begins in Faith Hedgepeth murder case more than 14 years after she was killed
Jury selection has begun in the murder trial of Miguel Salguero-Olivares, charged with killing Faith Hedgepeth more than 14 years ago. The University of North Carolina student was found dead in her Chapel Hill apartment in 2012, a case that went unsolved for years before his arrest in 2021. The long delay between the killing and trial is drawing attention as proceedings finally get underway.
Why now: The trial finally starting more than a decade after the killing marks a major development in a long-unsolved case that drew wide attention.
