A judge in Utah is set to rule on Tuesday on whether the existing evidence is sufficient to commit the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk to trial on aggravated murder charges, an offense that carries a maximum penalty of death.

犹他州一名法官将于周二裁定现有证据是否足以将涉嫌杀害查理·柯克(Charlie Kirk)的男子以加重谋杀罪交付审判,该罪名最高可判处死刑

On the eve of the state court hearing, prosecutors presented what they described as "overwhelming" evidence over five days in July, aiming to prove that Tyler Robinson killed the conservative activist while he was delivering a speech at an open-air gathering on a university campus.

在州法院听证会前夕检察官于7月历时五日呈递他们所称的“压倒性”证据旨在证明泰勒·罗宾逊(Tyler Robinson)保守派活动人士于大学校园露天集会发表演讲之际,将其杀害

The 23-year-old defendant turned himself in the day after the shooting at Utah Valley University last September.

这名23岁的被告在去年9月犹他谷大学枪击事件发生次日主动投案

He has yet to enter a plea, and his defense attorneys have not put forward any alternative theory regarding the cause of death.

他迄今尚未提出抗辩其辩护律师亦未就其他死因提出任何理论

Instead, they are focusing their efforts on preventing the case from proceeding to trial and on seeking to eliminate the death penalty from the range of potential sentences.

相反他们着力于阻止案件进入庭审阶段并力图将死刑从可能的量刑选项中排除。

The Fourth District Court in Provo was under heavy security, with Kirk's parents, Robert Kirk and Kathryn Kirk, entering the courtroom arm in arm on the eve of the hearing.

普罗沃第四司法区法院周遭戒备森严柯克的父母罗伯特·柯克(Robert Kirk)凯瑟琳·柯克(Kathryn Kirk)在听证会前夕臂挽臂步入法庭

Erika Kirk was also expected to appear in court, though she did not enter through the public entrance.

埃里卡·柯克(Erika Kirk)预计亦将出庭未取道公共入口

Several local members of Turning Point USA, the organization to which Kirk belongs, arrived carrying signs in support of Erika Kirk, only to be informed by security personnel that the signs could not be brought into the courthouse area.

柯克所属组织“美国转折点”(Turning Point USA)的数名当地成员携支持埃里卡·柯克的标语到场惟遭安保人员告知标语不得携入法院区域

Steve Burton, the executive director of the Utah Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, stated that District Judge Tony Graf has the option to bind the case over for trial on a lesser murder charge, which carries a minimum sentence of fifteen years and a maximum of life imprisonment.

犹他州辩护律师协会主任史蒂夫·伯顿(Steve Burton)表示地区法官托尼·格拉夫(Tony Graf)可选择以较轻的谋杀罪名将此案移交审判该罪名最低刑期为十五年最高可判终身监禁

Graf may also dismiss the charges against Robinson, in which case the prosecution would still be able to refile them.

格拉夫亦可撤销对罗宾逊的指控在此情况下检方仍可重新提出指控

The pivotal factor in elevating the charge to aggravated murder lies in whether the shooting posed an actual threat to others.

加重谋杀指控的关键因素在于枪击事件是否对他人构成了实际威胁

Attorneys will deliver their closing arguments on Tuesday, thereby concluding this exceptionally protracted preliminary hearingaccording to Tania Mashburn, a spokesperson for the state court, Graff intends to announce his ruling from the bench.

律师将于周二进行最后辩论从而结束这场异常漫长的初步听证会——州法院发言人塔尼亚·马什伯恩(Tania Mashburn)表示格拉夫计划在法官席上宣布其决定

The crux of the debate is likely to center on whether the Utah County prosecutors possess sufficient evidence to substantiate their aggravated charges of murder.

辩论的核心议题或将聚焦于犹他县检察官是否握有充分证据以支撑对加重谋杀罪行的加重指控

In recent court filings, defense attorneys have argued that the shooter "hit his intended target" and did not endanger others.

在最近的法庭文件中辩护律师辩称枪手击中了预定目标”,并未危及他人

However, prosecutors have pointed out that when Kirk was shot on a rooftop over 400 feet (122 meters) away, numerous individuals were situated within the "danger zone" surrounding him.

然而检察官指出当柯克在逾400英尺(122米)外的屋顶遭枪击时众多人员正身处柯克周边的危险区域”之内。

Should prosecutors be able to establish that Robinson singled out Kirk as a target due to his political beliefs, Robinson may face enhanced penalties as a consequence.

倘若检察官能够证实罗宾逊系因柯克的政治信仰而将其锁定为针对目标,罗宾逊或将面临刑罚加重的后果

Prior to Kirk's demise, the organization 'Turning Point USA,' which he co-founded, had successfully mobilized conservative young voters, thereby contributing to President Donald Trump's victory in securing a second term.

柯克辞世之前,与其共同创立“美国转折点”组织成功动员保守派青年选民群体,从而助力唐纳德·特朗普总统赢得第二个任期

In their argument, the prosecutors contended that a bullet bearing an inscription, discovered on the suspected weapon, indicated that Kirk had been targeted owing to his views on the defendant's political stance.

检察官在辩护中主张于疑似凶器上发现的一枚镌刻铭文的弹头表明柯克之所以成为袭击目标系因其对被告政治立场的看法所致。

In the written submissions presented to the court, they noted that the inscription on the bullet, "Hey, fascist! Take that!" could be described as "an unmistakable political allusion."

他们在呈交法庭的书面文件中指出弹上铭文“嘿,法西斯!接招!”堪称“昭然若揭的政治影射”。

The prosecutors stated that a handwritten note Robinson left for his partner read: "I had the chance to take out Charlie Kirk, and I seized it."

检察官称罗宾逊留给其伴侣一张手写便条中写道:“我有机会干掉查理·柯克我抓住了机会。”

They further alleged that in a text message concerning Kirk, Robinson wrote: "I've had enough of his hatred. Some hatred cannot be negotiated away."

他们还称罗宾逊在一条关于柯克的短信中写道:“我受够了他的仇恨有些仇恨无法通过谈判消除。”

Robinson's defense attorneys maintain that the evidence in the prosecution's possession is insufficient to conclusively establish a political motive behind his actions.

罗宾逊的辩护律师坚称检方所掌握的证据尚不足以确凿地证明其行为背后存在政治动机

In July, investigators released the results of DNA analyses, which they claimed linked Robinson to the suspected murder weapona bolt-action rifle containing a single cartridgeas well as to the tools he allegedly used to engrave the bullets.

7月调查人员公布了DNA分析结果他们声称这些分析将罗宾逊与疑似凶器——一支装有一枚弹壳的栓动步枪——以及他据称用于在子弹上刻字的工具联系了起来。

According to investigators, Robinson's partner Lance Twiggs stated in a recorded interview that, the day after Kirk's murder, Robinson confessed, "I wish I hadn't made such a grave mistake."

据调查人员透露罗宾逊的恋人兰斯·特威格斯在一次录制的访谈中向他们陈述柯克遇害次日罗宾逊曾坦言但愿自己未曾铸此大错”。

Later that dayroughly an hour before he turned himself inRobinson posted a message in an online chat room stating, "I am the one who committed the crime at UVU yesterday."

当日稍晚时分——约莫在他投案自首前一小时——罗宾逊于某在线聊天室留言称昨日在UVU行凶者正是我”。

Defense attorneys challenged the reliability of the DNA testing and sought to prevent the disclosure of Twiggs's interview, but to no avail, warning prosecutors that the interview would be characterized as a confession.

辩护律师对DNA检测的可靠性提出质疑并试图阻止特威格斯采访内容的公开披露但未能如愿他们警告检察官称该采访将被描述为认罪供述

In the interview, Twiggs stated that prior to the shooting, he had never heard Robinson mention Kirk.

特威格斯在采访中表示在枪击事件发生之前他从未听到罗宾逊提及柯克
