我們始終未能查明租車者車輛來源,至於槍枝那起謀殺案中所使用的凶器至今下落不明莫格在大陪審團面前作證時如此陳述。

史密斯別號「大德雷」,當晚安坐汽車後座,與安德森毗鄰

Although the authorities asserted their conviction that Anderson had pulled the trigger, the grand jury's testimony cast serious doubt on this inference.

儘管當局聲稱他們確信安德森扣動了扳機大陪審團的證詞這一推論提出了嚴峻的質疑

Davis's former associate, Davonta Lee, testified before the grand jury, alleging that Smith was the perpetrator who fatally shot Shakur and Knight.

戴維斯的前同夥丹文塔·李向大陪審團作證指稱史密斯即為槍殺夏庫爾奈特之兇手

According to him, Smith had taken the gun from Anderson, pulled the trigger, and allowed Anderson to receive considerable acclaim for Shakur's death.

據他所言史密斯從安德森手中接過槍枝扣下扳機讓安德森因夏庫爾之死備受讚譽

史密斯於2004年辭世得年僅三十據洛杉磯縣驗屍官辦公室之說法其死因係屬自然因素所致。

Brown was the one driving the Cadillac, and the gunshots were precisely what emanated from within that vehicle.

布朗即為駕駛那輛凱迪拉克之人,槍聲正是該車傳出

In his autobiography, Davis recalled that as they were driving along the Las Vegas Strip that evening, they caught sight of Shakur "leaning out of the BMW's window," waving to his fans.

戴維斯在其自傳中憶述當晚他們正沿拉斯維加斯大道行駛卻瞥見夏庫爾自寶馬車窗探身而出」,向粉絲揮手致意
