The lawyer for the Massachusetts woman accused of murdering her three children says he hopes to reach an agreement with prosecutors, after the case ended in a mistrial on Friday.
被控谋杀三个孩子的马萨诸塞州妇女的律师表示,在该案于周五以误审结束后,他希望与检察官达成协议。
Kevin Reddington told ABC's Good Morning America programme that he was upset a lone member of the jury would not acquit Lindsay Clancy.
凯文·雷丁顿 (Kevin Reddington) 告诉美国广播公司 (ABC) 的《早安美国》节目,他对陪审团中唯一的成员不肯宣判林赛·克兰西无罪感到不安。
To find Clancy guilty, jurors had to be unanimously convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that she intentionally killed her children - Cora, Dawson and Callan - and was not experiencing a psychotic break.
要认定克兰西有罪,陪审团必须毫无合理怀疑地一致相信她故意杀害了自己的孩子——科拉、道森和卡兰——并且没有经历精神崩溃。
On ABC, Reddington also appealed to President Donald Trump to pardon Clancy. Because she was charged by the state, though, only the Massachusetts governor has the power to pardon her.
在美国广播公司(ABC)上,雷丁顿还呼吁唐纳德·特朗普总统赦免克兰西。 不过,由于她受到州政府的指控,因此只有马萨诸塞州州长有权赦免她。
"I would hope that you [Trump] would consider this young lady, the type of person she is, what she's been through, and consider a pardon," Reddington said.
雷丁顿说:“我希望你(特朗普)能够考虑一下这位年轻女士,考虑一下她是怎样的人,考虑一下她经历过的事情,并考虑赦免她。”
Reddington also said he hoped the district attorney prosecuting the case "would be able to work something out that would be acceptable to both sides".
雷丁顿还表示,他希望起诉此案的地区检察官“能够找到双方都能接受的方案”。
The BBC has contacted the district attorney for Plymouth County, Massachusetts.
BBC 已联系马萨诸塞州普利茅斯县地区检察官。
"I'm willing to listen to Tim," Reddington said about District Attorney Tim Cruz, calling him a "hard-charging prosecutor".
“我愿意听蒂姆的意见,”雷丁顿谈到地方检察官蒂姆·克鲁兹时说,称他是一位“严厉的检察官”。
The jury - nine women and three men - was weighing a range of options, from not guilty by reason of insanity to manslaughter and first-degree murder.
陪审团由九名女性和三名男性组成,正在权衡一系列选择,从因精神错乱而无罪到过失杀人和一级谋杀。
The 12-member panel appeared to nearly reach a consensus, except for a single holdout who, Reddington said, "would not apply the law of reasonable doubt" as instructed by the judge.
雷丁顿表示,这个由 12 名成员组成的小组似乎几乎达成了共识,除了一名坚持不懈的人,他“不会按照法官的指示适用合理怀疑法”。
"That's not right," he said. "And that's why I was upset."
“这是不对的,”他说。 “这就是我感到不安的原因。”
Throughout the trial, prosecutors called dozens of witnesses, including several doctors, seeking to prove Clancy had made a calculated decision to murder her children in the basement of their Massachusetts home in January 2023.
在整个审判过程中,检察官传唤了包括几名医生在内的数十名证人,试图证明克兰西于 2023 年 1 月在马萨诸塞州家中的地下室谋杀了她的孩子,这是经过深思熟虑的决定。
Clancy does not deny killing the three, but says there was no premeditation and she was experiencing psychosis at the time. For her to be convicted of first-degree murder, a jury would have to believe she planned the killings.
克兰西并不否认杀害了三人,但表示这并不是预谋,而且她当时正经历着精神错乱。 要让她被判犯有一级谋杀罪,陪审团必须相信她策划了这起杀人事件。
The BBC has contacted the governor's office about a possible pardon request.
BBC 已就可能的赦免请求联系了州长办公室。
Under Massachusetts law, Reddington could also formally ask the judge to rule independently that Clancy was not guilty based on evidence presented during the trial. He has five days to file that motion.
根据马萨诸塞州法律,雷丁顿还可以正式要求法官根据审判期间提供的证据独立裁定克兰西无罪。 他有五天时间提交该动议。
Currently, the case rests with the prosecution, who must decide whether to seek another trial.
目前,此案正在由检方决定是否寻求再次审判。
