PBS高端访谈:未解的枪击案

（单词翻译）

JUDY WOODRUFF: A black family in Georgia pressed today for authorities to act after the shooting death of their son. Ahmaud Arbery was killed after two men, white men, chased him. Now video of the incident has emerged. Yamiche Alcindor has our report.

YAMICHE ALCINDOR: A graphic¹ video, a shocking shooting, and many unanswered questions. This cell phone footage is believed to show Ahmaud Arbery jogging in a South Georgia neighborhood before coming upon two men in a truck. The 25-year old tries to get around them. And then:

YAMICHE ALCINDOR: The video, released yesterday, has brought national attention to the incident, which took place back on February 23. Some believe this is yet another example of an unarmed black person shot and killed unfairly. Charges were not initially² brought against the two men, Gregory McMichael and his son Travis. But after the video's release, a Georgia prosecutor³ announced he plans to call a grand jury.

WANDA COOPER, Mother of Ahmaud Arbery: He was a happy-go-lucky person. He loved his family.

YAMICHE ALCINDOR: Wanda Cooper is Arbery's mother. In an interview yesterday, she said the process has taken too long.

WANDA COOPER: A lot of time has passed, and I'm ready to get these people who are responsible, you know, in jail.

YAMICHE ALCINDOR: Gregory McMichael told police he thought Arbery looked like a suspect in a nearby burglary. He said he and his son followed Arbery and told him to stop. Then, McMichael said Arbery "began to violently attack them". McMichael had been an investigator⁴ in the district attorney's office and a police officer. And, according to The New York Times, one of the original prosecutors⁵ on the case argued there was "insufficient⁶ probable cause" to arrest the two men. But he later requested to be removed from the case because his son worked in the prosecutor's office with Gregory McMichael. Today, the local president of the NAACP called for immediate⁷ action.

JOHN PERRY, President, Brunswick NAACP: Right now, we're calling for a law system that operates in integrity. And we believe that begins with the dismissal of the police chief that was in charge at the point of this incident.

YAMICHE ALCINDOR: Meanwhile, Georgia courts remain closed until at least June 13 due to the COVID-19 outbreak. An attorney for Arbery's family tells NewsHour the grand jury process would likely begin sometime after courts open back up. For the PBS NewsHour, I'm Yamiche Alcindor.

JUDY WOODRUFF: The Georgia Bureau of Investigation⁸ said today that it has now opened its own probe of the shooting.

朱迪·伍德拉夫：乔治亚州的一个黑人家庭向当局施压，请当局就自己儿子被枪杀一事采取行动。亚伯瑞·阿贝瑞在2名白人男子追击他之后就死亡了。该事件的视频已公之于众。请听阿尔辛多发回的报道。

阿尔辛多：一则视频、一起令人震惊的枪击案、很多未解的问题。据信，这则视频显示亚伯瑞·阿贝瑞在南乔治亚州的某街区慢跑，然后遇到了2名开着卡车的男子。25岁的亚伯瑞·阿贝瑞试着逃离两人。然后：

阿尔辛多：这则视频是昨天流出的，流出后引发了全国的关注，这件事是2月23日发生的。一些人认为这件事是另一起手无缚鸡之力的黑人遭到不公平枪杀的例子。一开始，2名白人男子格雷戈里·麦克迈克尔及其子特拉维并未遭到控诉。但视频流出后，乔治亚州的一名检察官表示自己打算调用大陪审团。

旺达·库珀，亚伯瑞·阿贝瑞：他是个随遇而安的人。他爱自己的家人。

阿尔辛多：旺达·库珀是阿贝瑞的母亲。在昨天接受采访时，她表示这个过程太漫长了。

旺达·库珀：很长时间过去了，我真地很想把那两个罪魁祸首送入监狱。

阿尔辛多：格雷戈里·麦克迈克尔告诉警方他觉得阿贝瑞看起来像最近某盗窃案的嫌疑人。他说自己和儿子跟随阿贝瑞，让阿贝瑞停下。他说，然后阿贝瑞就开始猛烈攻击二人。麦克迈克尔曾担任区检察署担任调查员，也曾是一名警官。根据《纽约时报》的报道，负责该案件之前的一名检察官说证据不充分，不足以逮捕两人。不过，随后，这名检察官又要求避嫌不插手此案件，因为自己的儿子在检察署工作，是格雷戈里·麦克迈克尔的同事。今天，全国有色人种协进会在乔治亚的主席呼吁即刻采取行动。

约翰·佩里，全国有色人种协进会主席：我们呼吁实行廉政系统。我们相信这件事起于那时候负责这起案件的警官遭到解雇。

阿尔辛多：与此同时，由于疫情原因，乔治亚州的一些法庭还处于闭庭阶段，至少要6月13日之后才会开庭。阿贝瑞家请的律师在接受我台采访时表示，大陪审团的流程可能会在法庭重新开庭后的某个时间开启。感谢收听阿尔辛多发回的报道。

朱迪·伍德拉夫：佐治亚州调查局今日表示已开始对该枪杀案立案调查。
