OK. Here's what I think. And I have no personal feelings about this.
好了 这就是我的想法 对本案我并没有个人偏见
I just wanna talk about facts.
我只是想讨论事实
Number one.
首先
The old man lived downstairs under the room where the killing took place.
住在凶案现场楼下的那个老人
At 10 minutes after 12 on the night of the killing, he heard loud noises. Said it sounded like a fight.
在凶案发生当晚的十二点十分他听到类似发生争执的吵闹声
And he heard the kid yell out "I'm gonna kill ya."
他听到那个孩子大叫着 "我要杀了你"
A second later, he heard a body hit the floor.
一秒钟后他听见有人摔倒的声音
Ran to the door, opened it up, saw the kid run down the stairs and out of the house.
于是他跑到门口 看到那孩子冲下楼梯离开
Called the police. They found the old man with the knife in his chest.
他打电话报警 警方发现死者胸口插了一把刀
The coroner fixed the time of death around midnight.
法医推测死亡时间大约是午夜
Now, these are facts. You can't refute facts. The kid is guilty.
这些都是事实 你无法反驳事实 那孩子有罪
I'm just as sentimental as the next fella. I know he's only 18.
我跟其他人一样有同情心 我知道那孩子只有十八岁
- But he's still gotta pay for what he did. - I'm with you.
- 但他还是得付出代价 - 我同意你的说法
OK. Are you finished?
好了 你说完了吗?
- Yeah. - Next.
- 我说完了 - 下一位
It is obvious to me that the boy's entire story was flimsy.
很明显地那孩子的说词 根本都是在瞎编
He claimed he was at the movies...
他说案发时他在看电影…
yet he couldn't remember the names of the films he saw or who played in them.
但他完全想不起来 那部电影跟演员们的名字
- That's right. - And no one saw him at the theatre.
- 没错 - 没有人看到他进出电影院
And the woman across the street if her testimony don't prove it, nothing does.
住在对街的那个女人所做出的证词呢?
- That's right. She actually saw the killing. - Fellas, please. Let's go in order.
- 她看到他杀人 - 好了 请大家照顺序来
Just a minute. Here's a woman who's lying in bed. She can't sleep.
等一下 案发时这个女人 躺在床上 她睡不着
She's dyin' with the heat.
她热到受不了 你明白吧?
She looks out the window, and right across the street she sees the kid stick the knife into his father.
她从窗户往外看 看到那孩子 将刀子插进他父亲的胸口
The time is 12.10 on the nose. Everything fits. She's known the kid all his life.
时间是十二点十分 完全吻合 她是看着那孩子长大的
His window is opposite hers across the el tracks. She swore she saw him do it.
他家跟她家只隔了一条电车轨道 她目睹他杀人的经过
Through the windows of a passing el train.
当时刚好有一列电车经过
This el train had no passengers on it. It was just being moved downtown.
这辆电车上没有乘客 它是要开到市区去的
The lights were out
当时车上的灯光全暗
and they proved in court that at night you can look through the windows
律师证明了透过电车车窗 的确可以看到东西
and see what's happening on the other side. They proved it.
只要灯光是暗的 你可以看到另一边的景象
I'd like to ask you something.
我想问你一个问题
You don't believe the boy. How come you believe the woman? She's one of "them" too, isn't she?
你不相信那孩子 为什么会相信这个女人呢? 她跟他是一样的
- You're a pretty smart fella, aren't ya? - OK, gentlemen. Now, gentlemen.
- 你以为自己很聪明 对吧? - 各位
- Come on, sit down. Sit down. - What's he so wise about?
- 好了 坐下吧 - 他有什么好得意的?
Come on. Now we're not gonna get anywhere fighting. Whose turn is it next?
好了 我们不是来吵架的 现在轮到谁了?
Oh, his. Number five.
轮到他了 他是五号
May I... Can I pass?
我可以弃权吗?
Well... That's your privilege. How about the next gentleman?
那是你的权利 下一位
Oh. Well...I don't know. I started to be convinced, you know, very early in the case.
我不知道 打从一开始 我就相信他有罪
You see, I was looking for a motive.
我一直在寻找他的犯罪动机
That's very important because if you don't have a motive, where's your case, right?
这真的很重要 没有犯罪动机 案子就无法成立
Anyway, that testimony from those people across the hall from the kid's apartment...
住在那孩子家对面的人 在法庭上做出的证词…
that was very powerful.
非常有力
Didn't they say something about a fight, an argument between the old man and his son
何况他们提到死者跟他儿子…
around about seven o'clock that night? I could be wrong but...
约七点时曾发生过争吵 或许我错了 但我…
- It was eight o'clock, not seven. - That's right.
- 是八点才对 - 没错
They heard an argument.
他们听到了争吵声 却听不清楚到底发生了什么事
Then they heard the father hit the boy twice.
他们听到死者 打了他儿子两下
Finally they saw the boy run, angry, out of the house. What does that prove?
他们看到那孩子愤怒地冲出家门 那能证明什么呢?
It don't prove anything. It's just part of the picture.
那无法证明任何事 那只是事实的一部份
You said it provided a motive. So did the prosecution. That wasn't a very strong motive.
你说那证明了凶手有杀人动机 但我觉得这样的动机不够强烈
This boy has been hit so many times that violence is practically...It's a normal state of affairs with him.
这孩子常常被打 暴力对他来说是司空见惯的事
I just can't see two slaps in the face provoking him into committing murder.
我不觉得被打了两个耳光 就足以让他气到去杀人
It may have been two too many. Everyone has a breaking point.
或许他真的被逼到受不了 每个人都有极限
Anything else?
你还有话要说吗?
- No. - OK. How about you?
- 没有了 - 好吧 你呢?
I don't know. It's all been said.
我不知道 话都被他们说完了
You can talk here for ever. It's still the same thing.
我们可以一直耗下去 结论还是一样的

This boy's the product of a broken home and a filthy neighbourhood.
他来自破碎家庭 住在贫民窟 关于那一点我们爱莫能助
We can't help that. We're here to decide his innocence or guilt, not to go into the reasons why he grew up the way he did.
我们要决定他到底有没有罪 这跟他的成长背景无关
He was born in a slum. Slums are breeding grounds for criminals.
他生于贫民窟 那是犯罪的温床 我们都知道这一点
It's no secret that children from slums are potential menaces to society.
那不是秘密 来自贫民窟的孩子 出了社会很可能会变成恶棍

- This sensitivity I can understand. - OK, look. Let's stop the arguing.
- 我能了解那样的感觉 - 好了 大家别吵了
We're only wasting time. Your turn down there. Let's go.
我们只是在浪费时间 现在轮到你了 说吧
I didn't expect a turn. I thought you were all gonna to try to convince me.
我还以为你们想要说服我 那不是你们的原意吗?
- That was the idea. - I forgot. He's right.
- 一点都没错 - 我忘了 他是对的
He's the one keeping us in here. Let's hear what he's got to say.
是他害得我们被困在这里 我们听听他的说法吧
Wait. We decided to do this a certain way. I think we ought to stick to it.
既然我们已经决定好要这么做 我们应该要坚持下去
- Oh, stop being a kid, will ya? - What do you mean, a kid?
- 别孩子气了 - 你是什么意思? 孩子气
What do you think I mean? K-I-D: Kid.

Just because I'm trying to keep this organised

Did you ever see such a thing?
你们看过这种事吗?
- You think it's funny? - Forget it, fella. It's unimportant.
- 你觉得很有趣吗? - 算了吧 那一点都不重要

According to the testimony, the boy looks guilty. Maybe he is.
根据证词 那孩子是有罪的 或许人真的是他杀的
I sat there in court for six days listening while the evidence built up.
六天来我坐在法庭上 听到目击者接连不断提出证词
Everybody sounded so positive. I began to get a peculiar feeling about this trial.
大家的语气都十分肯定 对于这次审判我有很特别的感觉
I mean, nothing is that positive. There are questions I'd have liked to ask.
话不要说的太硬了 我想要提出一些问题
Maybe they wouldn't mean anything but...
或许它们毫无意义…
I felt that the defence wasn't conducting a thorough enough cross-examination.
但我觉得被告 并没有做过完整的交叉讯问
- He let too many things go by-little things. - What little things?
- 他遗漏了一些小细节 - 什么小细节?
When they don't ask questions, it's because they know the answers already.
律师不提出问题 是因为他们已经知道了答案
It's also possible for a lawyer to be just plain stupid, isn't it?
也很可能是因为 那个律师是大笨蛋 对吧?
- I mean, it's possible. - You sound like you met my brother-in-law once.
- 那是有可能的 - 听起来你已经见过我大舅子了
I kept putting myself in the kid's place.
我一直让自己站在那孩子的角度来想
I'd have asked for another lawyer, I think. I mean, if I was on trial for my life
我会去请另一个律师来帮我辩护 这场审判攸关我的生死
I'd want my lawyer to tear the prosecution witnesses to shreds, or at least try to.
我会希望我的律师反驳目击者的证词 至少他该试试看
Look, there was one alleged eyewitness to this killing.
听着 这件凶案有一个目击证人
Someone else claims he heard the killing, saw the boy run out after...
还有一个人听到凶案发生过程 事后还看到那孩子冲出屋外…
and there was circumstantial evidence.
同时还出现了间接证据
But those two witnesses were the entire case for the prosecution. Supposing they're wrong?
这个案子有两个证人 如果他们都错了呢?
What do you mean? What's the point of having witnesses at all?
你是什么意思? 那不是证人的责任吗?
Could they be wrong?
如果他们错了呢?
Those people were under oath.
他们在坐上证人席前 都发过了誓
They're only people. People make mistakes. Could they be wrong?
他们只是人 人难免会犯错 如果他们都错了呢?
- Well, no. I don't think so. - Do you know so?
- 不 我不那么认为 - 你真的那么想吗?
Nobody can know a thing like that. This isn't an exact science.
没有人可以确定那一点 我们又不是在做科学论证
That's right, it isn't.
没错 你说的对
OK, let's get to the point. What about the switch knife they found in the old man's chest?
现在来谈正事 插在死者胸口的折叠刀又是怎么一回事?
Some people haven't talked yet.
等一下 有人还没有发言
- Shouldn't we go in order? - They'll get a chance to talk. Be quiet a second, will ya?

The knife and the way it was bought is strong evidence, don't you think?
凶刀是一项强而有力的证据 你不那么认为吗?
- I do. - Good.
- 你说的一点都没错 - 很好
Let's take the facts one at a time.
我们得一样样地 来检视所有的事实
One: The boy admitted leaving the house at eight o'clock at night after being slapped by his father.
一 那孩子在八点钟离开家里 因为他父亲打了他两巴掌

This is where the stories offered by the State and the boy diverge slightly.
从此原告律师跟被告的说词 开始出现分歧

这跟那把刀子有什么关系? 有人目睹那孩子杀了自己的父亲
What more do we need? You guys can talk the ears right off my head.

- You can hardly hear yourself think. - Will you get to the point?
- 甚至吵得你无法思考 - 你就不能直接讲重点吗?
I will.
我会的 稍安勿躁
Now, let's take two pieces of testimony and try to put them together.
请回想一下两个证人的证词 把它们拼凑在一起
First: The old man in the apartment downstairs.
首先 住在 楼下公寓的老人
He says he heard the boy say "I'm gonna kill you"
他听到那孩子说 "我要杀了你"
and a split second later heard a body hit the floor.
一秒后他听到有人摔倒在地的声音
- Right. - Second...
- 没错 - 第二点…
The woman across the street swore positively she looked out of the window
那女人发誓说当她从窗户往外看时
and saw the killing through the last two cars of a passing el train-the last two cars.
她透过电车最后两节车厢看到凶案发生的经过
- What are you givin' us here? - Now, just a minute.
- 你到底想说什么? - 等一下
We've agreed that it takes ten seconds for a train to pass a given point.
我们都同意电车得花十秒钟才能完全通过某一点
Since the woman saw the killing through the last two cars
因为她是透过最后两节车厢看到凶案发生的经过
we can assume that the body hit the floor just as the train went by.
我们可以推测出死者是在电车经过时倒在地上
Therefore, the train had been roaring by the old man's window
因此电车经过老人家窗口时发出轰隆隆的噪音
a full ten seconds before the body hit the floor.
过了十秒后死者倒在地上
The old man hearing the boy said"I'm gonna kill you"
他说他听到被告说"我要杀了你"
body hitting the floor a second later
一秒后听到有人跌在地上
would have had to hear the boy's words with the el roaring past his nose!
所以他听到那孩子说话的同时电车刚好经过他家窗口!
- It's not possible he heard it. - Of course he heard it.
- 他不可能听得到 - 他真的听到了
- Do you think so? - He said he yelled at the top of his voice.
- 你相信他的说法? - 那孩子是扯着喉咙大叫
He couldn't have identified the voice with the el roaring by.
当时刚好有电车通过他不可能认得出那孩子的声音
It was a matter of seconds! Nobody can be that accurate.
这是在几秒内发生的事没有人可以测量的那么准确
Testimony that could put a boy into the electric chair should be that accurate.
我认为能送那孩子上电椅的证词必须非常准确才行
- I don't think he could have heard it. - Maybe he didn't, with all that el noise.
- 我认为他根本就听不出来 - 或许那么吵他真的听不出来
What are you people talkin' about?
你在胡说什么?
- It stands to reason he couldn't have. - Why lie? What's he got to gain?
- 他的确可能会听不清楚 - 他为什么要说谎? 那对他有什么好处?
Attention, maybe.
或许他想引起别人的注意
You keep comin' in with bright sayings. Send 'em to a paper!
你既然想出这么多理论 把它们卖给报社吧
- They pay $3 apiece! - What are you talkin' to him like that for?
- 一份稿费是三块钱! - 你为什么要那样子对他说话?
A guy who talks like that to an old man really oughta get stepped on.
会那样子跟老人说话的人应该要受到谴责
You oughta have more respect, mister.
你得学着去尊敬别人 先生
You say stuff like that to him again... I'm gonna lay you out.
你敢再那样子跟他说话… 我一定会给你好看
You go ahead. You say anything you like.
好了 你想说什么就说吧
Why do you think the old man might lie?
你觉得那个老人为什么要说谎呢?
It was just that I looked at him for a very long time.
我在法庭上一直盯着他看
The seam of his jacket was split, under the shoulder.
他穿的外套在肩膀的部份裂开了
Did you notice that? I mean, to come into court like that.
你们注意到了吗? 我是说他上法庭却穿成那个样子
He was a very old man in a torn jacket.
他是个穿着破外套的老头子
And he walked very slowly to the stand.
而且他走上证人席的步伐缓慢
He was dragging his left leg and trying to hide it
他的左脚一跛一跛的 却努力地想要掩饰它
because he was ashamed.
因为他觉得自己很丢脸
I think I know this man better than anyone here.
我认为我比你们任何一个人都了解那个老头子
This is a quiet, frightened, insignificant old man who...
他是个安静 怯懦 不起眼的老头子…
who has been nothing all his life.
一辈子无所成
Who has never had recognition or his name in the newspapers.
没有人认得他 他的名字也没有上过报
Nobody knows him. Nobody quotes him.
没有人认得他 也不会听他说话
Nobody seeks his advice after 75 years.
七十五年来没有人征询过他的意见
Gentlemen, that's a very sad thing-to mean nothing.
各位 默默无闻是一件令人伤感的事
A man like this needs to be quoted
像他那样的人会希望别人去询问他的意见
to be listened to. To be quoted just once-very important to him.
有人会听他说话 询问他的意见 即使只有一次对他来说都很重要
It would be so hard for him to recede into the background.
要他放弃这个机会真的很难
Wait a minute. Are you tellin' us he'd lie just so he could be important once?
等等 你的意思是他说谎 只为了体会当大人物的滋味？
No. He wouldn't really lie.
不 事实上他不算是说谎
But perhaps he made himself believe he heard those words and recognised the boy's face.
或许他幻想他真的听到那些话认为凶手就是那个男孩
That's the most fantastic story ever.
这个说法太妙了
How can you make up a thing like that? What do you know about it?
你怎么编得出这样的故事 你又知道多少呢?
Does anybody want a cough drop?
谁想吃喉糖?
I'll take one.
给我一颗吧
I still don't see how anybody can think he's not guilty.
我还是不明白你们为什么会认为他无罪
There's something else I'd like to talk about for a minute.
还有一件事我想跟你们讨论一下
We've proved the old man couldn't have heard the boy say "I'm gonna kill you."
我们证明了那老头听不到 那孩子说"我要杀了你"
- You didn't prove it at all! - Wait. Supposing he really did hear it?
- 你根本没有证明任何事 - 假设他真的听到了
This phrase, how many times have all of us used it? Probably thousands.
你们有多常说这句话呢? 应该超过好几千次吧
"I could kill you for that." "Junior, do that again and I'll kill you." "Rocky, kill him."
"我非杀了你不可" "你再这样 我就杀了你" "洛基 快进来杀了他"
- It doesn't mean we'd really kill anybody. -What you wanna to give us here?
- 那不代表我们真的要 - 你到底想做什么?
The kid yelled it at the top of his lungs. Don't tell me he didn't mean it.
他说"我要杀了你" 别告诉我他不是这个意思
Anybody says it like that, they mean it!
任何人像他那样说话 都是认真的
Gee, I don't know.
天啊 现在我真的不知道了
I was arguing with the guy I work next to at the bank a few weeks ago.
几个星期前我跟一位工作伙伴发生争执
He called me an idiot, so I yelled at him.
他骂我是白痴 于是我对他破口大骂
This guy is trying to make you believe what isn't so!
他要你们去相信他编的故事!
The kid said he'd kill him and he did!
被告放话要杀人他真的动手了!
Do you really think the boy'd shout it out so the whole neighbourhood could hear?
那孩子如果真的想杀人他会到处嚷嚷让邻居知道吗?
He's much too bright for that.
他太聪明了
Bright? He's a common, ignorant slob. He don't even speak good English.
聪明? 他只是个不学无术的混混一般的 他连英语都说不好
He doesn't even speak good English.
甚至连正确的语法都不会
Mr.Foreman, I'd like to change my vote to not guilty.
团长先生 我改变了心意 那个孩子应该是无罪
- You what? - You heard me.
- 你说什么? - 你都听到了
- Are you sure? - Yeah, I'm sure.
- 你确定? - 我非常确定
The vote is nine to three in favour of guilty.
九比三有罪那一方占优势
Well, if this isn't the livin' end!
但这还不是最后的结论 对吧
What are you basin' it on? Stories this guy made up?
你为什么会相信这个家伙编出来的故事?
You oughta write for one of those kooky detective magazines, make a fortune.
你应该去写侦探小说你一定可以大赚一票的
For cryin' out loud, the kid's own lawyer knew he didn't stand a chance.
连那孩子的律师都知道他根本没有胜诉的机会
Right from the beginning, his own lawyer knew, and you could see it.
从一开始他的律师就知道了
Boy, oh boy, I'm telling ya. This guy here is really somethin'.
天啊 听我说 这个家伙真的很厉害
The kid had a lawyer, didn't he? He presented his case, not you.
那孩子请了律师 应该由他来帮他打官司
- How come you say so much? - Lawyers aren't infallible.
- 为什么你有那么多的话可说? - 律师的话并不完全是正确的
- He was court-appointed. - What's that supposed to mean?
- 他是法庭指派的律师 - 那是什么意思?
He didn't want the case
他很可能并不想出庭打这场官司
or he resented being appointed. It's the kind of case
虽然他真的出庭了 从这个案子他捞不到任何好处
that brings no money, no glory, not much chance of winning.
赚不到钱 得不到名声 连胜诉的机会都是微乎其微
That's not a very promising situation for a young lawyer.
对一位年轻律师来说这不是一个好案子
He'd really have to believe in his client to put up a good case. Obviously he didn't.
他得去相信他的客户是无罪的 但他并没有那么做
Of course he didn't. Who the heck could?
他当然不会那么做 谁会那么做呢?
Except maybe some guy's mother or somebody.
或许某人的妈妈或是某个人
Oh, look. Will you look at the time? Come on.
听我说 现在已经很晚了 别再耗下去了
Pardon me. I have made some notes here
对不起 我做了一些笔记
and I would like, please, to say something.
我有一些话 想要告诉你们
I have been listening very carefully and...
我一直非常仔细地在听证人陈述证词…
it seems to me that this man has some very good points to make.
看起来这位先生说的话非常有道理
From what was presented at the trial, the boy looks guilty, on the surface.
从法庭上的证词看来这孩子似乎是有罪
- But maybe if we go deeper... - Come on, will ya?
- 如果我们深入去… - 少来了
There is a question I would like to ask.
我有一个问题
Let us assume that the boy really did commit the murder.
假设那个孩子真的杀了人
Now, this happened at 10 minutes after 12.
案发的时间是十二点十分
Now, how was he caught by the police?
他是如何被警方逮捕的呢?
He came back home... at three o'clock or so
他是在三点左右 回到家里…
and he was captured by two detectives in the hallway of his house.
在家里被两名警官逮捕
Now, my question is: If he really had killed his father
我的问题是 如果他真的杀了他的父亲
why would he come back home three hours later?
为什么他会在三个小时后回到家里?
Wouldn't he be afraid of being caught?
难道他不怕会被逮到吗?
He came home for his knife. It's not nice to leave knives in people's chests.
他是回来拿刀子的 他不想让刀子继续插在死者胸口上
Yeah, especially relatives'.
对 而且死的人是他老爸
I don't see anything funny about it.
我一点都不觉得好笑
The boy knew the knife could be identified.
他知道会有人指认出那是他的刀子
He had to get it before the police did.
他得抢在警察前面拿走刀子
If he knew the knife could be identified, why did he leave it there in the first place?
如果他知道凶刀会被指认出来 案发时他为什么要把它留在现场?
I think we can assume the boy ran out in a state of panic, having just killed his father.
我们可以假设那孩子杀了父亲后 慌张地逃离现场
He calmed down and realised he'd left his knife there.
他冷静下来后才发现他把刀子留在现场
This, then, depends on your definition of panic.
这得视你对慌张的定义来做判断
He would have had to be calm enough to wipe off any fingerprints left on the knife.
他必须非常地冷静才会想到要把刀子的指纹擦干净
Now, where did this panic start and where did it end?
他什么时候感到慌张又在什么时候冷静下来的呢?
You voted guilty. What side are you on?
你投了有罪一票 你到底站在哪一边?
I don't believe I have to be loyal to one side or the other. I'm simply asking questions.
我不必效忠于任何一边 我只是提出了我的疑问
This is just off the top of my head but...
这真的已经超出了我的理解范围 但是…
If I'd done the stabbing, I'd take a chance and go back for the knife.
如果我是他我真的杀了人 我会回案发现场取回刀子
I'll bet he figured nobody'd seen him running out and the body wouldn't be discovered till the next day.
他认为没有人看到他离开现场 尸体要到隔天才会被发现
After all, it was the middle of the night.
那时是三更半夜的
- He figured it'd be found the next day. - Pardon. This is my whole point.
- 他认为没有人会发现尸体 - 对不起 那就是我的重点
The woman across the street testified that the moment after she saw the killing that is
那女人在法庭上说在凶案发生之后
a moment after the train went by
在电车经过后不久
she screamed, and then went to telephone the police.
她放声大叫 并且打电话报警
Now, the boy certainly must have heard the scream.
那个孩子一定听到了尖叫声
So he knew that somebody saw something.
他一定知道有人看到他杀人
I just don't think that he would have gone back.
我想他是打死都不会回家的
Two things. One: He may not have heard the scream. Perhaps it wasn't very loud.
两个可能 或许他太过惊慌没有听到尖叫声 或许她没有叫得很大声
Two: If he did, he may not have connected it with his own acts.
或许他没有想到 她是看到他杀人才会放声大叫
He lived in a neighbourhood where screams were commonplace.
在他住的地方听见尖叫声是司空见惯的事
- There's your answer. - Maybe.
- 事情就是那么简单 - 或许是吧
Maybe the boy did kill his father. Didn't hear the scream...
或是他真的杀了他父亲 他没有听到尖叫声…
did run out in a panic, calmed down later...
他慌张地冲出屋子 事后他冷静下来…
and came back for the knife, risking being caught by the police.
冒着被抓的风险 回家去拿他的刀子
Maybe those things happened, but maybe they didn't.
或许这就是事实 或许根本不是这么一回事
There's enough doubt to wonder if he was there at all at the time of the killing.
还有很多疑点能让我们去怀疑 案发时他到底在不在现场
What do you mean? Didn't the old man see him running out of the house?
你在胡说什么? 那个老头子看到他冲出屋外
He's twisting the facts.
他是在扭曲事实
Did or didn't the old man see the kid running out of the house at 12.10?
十二点十分时那个老人到底有没有看到被告?
- Well, did or didn't he? - He says he did.
- 他到底有没有看到? - 他说他看到了
- Says he did? Boy, how do you like that? - Witnesses can make mistakes.
- 他说他看到了? 天啊，你怎么能这样? - 听着 证人也是会犯错的
Sure, when you want them to! Or when he wants them to!
没错 那都是你在胡说八道! 他根本没有说谎!
- Keep the yelling down. - Maybe we need a little yelling.
- 小声一点 - 或许我们该大声地说出来
These guys keep going off every which way. Did hear the scream, didn't hear it-what difference does it make?
这些家伙越来越过份了 他到底有没有听到这有什么分别?
You're talking about little details
你们只会去讨论那些微乎其微的小细节
and forgetting the important stuff.
却忘了最重要的事
- I call for another vote. - I'm talking here!
- 我提议再投一次票 - 我在说话!
Another vote called for. Now let's take our seats.
有人要求再投一次票 大家请坐下
I never saw so much time spent on nothin'.
我从来没看过有人把时间浪费在这种小事上
It only takes a second.
只要一下子就好了
OK, I guess the fastest way is to find out who's voting not guilty.
最快的方法是先表决无罪的部份
All those voting not guilty, please raise your hands.
要投无罪一票的人请举手
Still the same. One, two, three not guilty. Nine guilty.
还是一样 三票无罪 九票有罪
So now where are we? We can yakety-yak till next Tuesday.
听我说 再这样耗下去我们得在这里待到下星期二
Where's it getting us?
这对我们有什么好处呢?
Pardon. I vote not guilty.
对不起 我要投无罪一票
What are you talkin' about? I mean, we're all goin' crazy in here or somethin'.
他在胡说什么? 大家全都疯了
The kid is guilty. Why don't you listen to the facts?
那个孩子有罪 你们为什么不愿意相信事实?
Tell them, will ya? This is gettin' to be a joke.
这个案子会变成一个大笑话
The vote is eight to four in favour of guilty.
票数是八比四 有罪占优势
What is this? Love Your Underprivileged Brother Week?
这是怎么一回事? 支持弱势团体周到了吗?
I want you to tell me why you changed your vote. Give me reasons.

I don't have to defend my decision to you. There is a reasonable doubt in my mind.
我不必为我的决定辩护 我心里头出现了合理的怀疑

什么怀疑? 证词非常明确 听我说
The kid you just decided isn't guilty was seen ramming this into his father!

- What about this, Mr.Reasonable Doubt? - That's not the knife, remember?
- 那又是怎么一回事? - 那并不是凶刀 你还记得吗?
Oh, brilliant!
太棒了!
I'm tellin' you, this is the craziest.
我得告诉你们这件事太疯狂了
I mean, what are we supposed to believe? You're pullin' stories out of thin air.
我们到底要相信什么? 你们凭空编出许多故事
A guy like this, if he's sittin' ringside at the Dempsey-Firpo fight
这家伙要是看过丹柏西跟佛波的比赛
he'd be trying to tell you that...
或许他会告诉你们…
Look. Now what about the old man? Are we supposed to believe
那个老头又是怎么一回事? 我们要相信他没有跑到门边
he didn't see the kid tearin' down the steps 15 seconds after the killing?
在案发后十五秒他没有看到那孩子冲出屋外?
He's just sayin' so to be important, right?
他那么说只是想引人注意 对吧?
- What's the point of it all? - Hold it.
- 你到底想说什么? - 等一下

That's correct. It's the only alibi the boy offered
没错 那是被告提出的唯一不在场证明
and he couldn't back it up with any details.
但他无法说明所有的细节
In the boy's place
你站在那男孩的处境想想
do you think you could remember details...
你觉得被自己的父亲打了巴掌后…
after an upsetting experience such as being slapped by your father?
你可以记得起这些小事吗?
I think so, if there were any special details to remember.

According to the police testimony, the boy was questioned in the kitchen

while the body of his father was lying in the bedroom.

要查出某家电影院当时在放映那部电影并不难
I'll take the testimony from right after the murder...
我相信那个孩子在案发后…
when he couldn't remember a thing about the movies, great emotional stress or not.
记不起电影名字的证词 不论他当时是否承受极大的压力

这件事一直让我觉得很困扰 既然我们被困在这里…
There was this whole business about the stab wound and how it was made.
对于死者的致命伤跟其成因我一直觉得不太对劲
- The downward angle of it, you know? - Don't start with that again.
- 伤口的角度向下 - 你们又来了
- They've been over it and over it. - I know, but I don't go along with it.
- 律师们已经讨论过这一点 - 我知道 但我就是觉得不对劲
The boy was five feet seven inches tall. His father was six two.
那孩子五尺七寸高 他父亲是六尺二寸高
That's a difference of seven inches.
他们的身高相差七寸
It's very awkward to stab down into the chest of someone over half a foot taller.
要往下刺伤一个比你高半尺的人不是一件很简单的事
Give me that.
请把刀子递给我
I'll give you a demonstration. Somebody get up.
我来示范给你们看 麻烦哪位过来一下
Watch this, I don't wanna have to do it again.
大家仔细看着 我不会再示范第二次
I'll make myself about six or seven inches shorter.
我会往下蹲让自己比他矮上七寸 好吗?
- That's about right. Maybe a little more. - OK, a little more.
- 大概是这样 还要再低一点 - 好了 再蹲低一点
Now...nobody's hurt.
别担心…我不会来真的
- Right? - Right. Nobody hurt.
- 是吗? - 没有人会受伤的
Now, this is the way I'd stab a man who was...taller than I was.
我就是这样…刺伤比我高的人
Look at the angle. Down and in.
你们看看这个角度是往下压的
And this is the way it was done. Now tell me I'm wrong.
他就是这样杀了他父亲 你们可以说我错了
- Down and in. There's no argument. - Hold on a minute.
- 角度往下压 一定不会错的 - 请等一下
Will you give me that?
麻烦你把刀子递给我
Boy, I hate these things.
天啊 我恨透这些事了
- Did you ever see a knife fight? - No.
- 你看过别人互砍的样子吗? - 没有
- You? - No.
- 你呢? - 没有
Anybody here ever see a knife fight?
有人看过别人互砍的样子吗?
Well, I have.
我看过
You know, on my back stoop, the lot across the street, back yard.
当时我曲着身体 他们在对街的院子里械斗
Switchblades came with the neighbourhood.
在我住的社区里拥有折叠刀不是稀奇的事
Funny I never thought of it before. I guess you try to forget.
我不想去想起这种事 一直都努力地想忘了它
- How do you use a switchblade? - Well, you'd never use it like this.
- 你都是怎么使用折叠刀的? - 没有人会这样使用折叠刀
See, you'd lose too much time switching hands.
这样子要亮出刀子 会浪费掉太多时间
Here's how. Underhand.
大家都是这样向下拿着刀子
Anyone who's ever used one wouldn't handle it any other way.
使用折叠刀的人都是这样拿刀子的
- Are you sure? - I'm sure.
- 你确定? - 我非常确定
- It's why they're made to open like that. - The boy was pretty handy with a knife.
- 那样子才能把刀子弹开 - 那孩子对使用刀子非常熟悉
You think he could have made the wound that killed his father?
你觉得他有办法那样杀死他父亲吗?
No. Not with the experience he got all his life handling these things.
不可能 除非经过练习不然他不可能是那样拿刀子的
- I feel he'd have gone for him underhand. - How do you know?
- 他一定是偷偷地攻击他的 - 你怎么知道?
- Were you there when he was killed? - No. Neither was anybody else.
- 你当时也在现场吗? - 不 当时现场没有其他人
What are you giving us this mumbo jumbo for?
你凭什么告诉我们这些凭空杜撰的事?
I don't think you can tell what wound he might have made...
我不认为你可以判定那孩子是怎么杀人的…
simply because he knew how to handle a knife.
因为他知道如何使用刀子
What do you think?
你觉得呢?
- I don't know. - What do you mean, you don't know?
- 我不知道 - 你是什么意思?
I don't know.
我不知道
How about you?
你呢?
I don't know about the rest of 'em, but I'm gettin' tired of this yakety-yakkin'.
我不知道其他人是怎么想的 但我已经厌倦了这种情况
It's gettin' us nowhere. So I guess I'll have to break it up.
这样子下去是不会有结论的 我想我要做出突破
I'm changin' my vote to not guilty.
我要改变决定投无罪一票
- You're what? - You heard me. I've had enough.
- 你说什么? - 你都听到了 我受够了
You've had enough? That's no answer.
什么? 那不是答案
Listen, you just take care of yourself. You know?
听着 你只要搞定你自己就好了 你知道吗?
He's right. That's not an answer.
他说的对 那不是答案
What kind of a man are you?
你到底是什么样的人?
You have sat here and voted guilty with everyone else
你刚刚还投有罪一票赞同其他人的意见
because there are some baseball tickets burning a hole in your pocket.
只因为你急着要去看球赛
Now you have changed your vote because you say you're sick of all the talking?
现在你改变了心意因为你厌倦了这些讨论
Now, listen, buddy.
听我说 兄弟
Who tells you that you have the right to play like this with a man's life?
谁告诉你你有权这样子玩弄别人的生命?
- Don't you care? - Now, wait a minute.
- 你不在乎吗? - 等一下
- You can't talk like that to me. - I can talk like that to you.
- 你不能那样子跟我说话 - 我当然可以那样子跟你说话
If you want to vote not guilty, do it because you are convinced...
如果你要投无罪一票 必须是因为你相信…
he is not guilty, not because you've had enough.
被告的确是无罪的 而不是因为你觉得厌烦
And if you think he is guilty, then vote that way.
如果你觉得他有罪 你得坚持下去
Or don't you have the guts to do what you think is right?
难道你没有种去做你认为是对的事吗?
- Now, listen... - Guilty or not guilty?
- 听我说… - 你认为他有罪还是无罪?
- I told you. Not guilty. - Why?
- 我说过了他无罪 - 为什么?
Look, I don't have to...
听着 我不必…

你非说出来不可 为什么?
I...I don't think he's guilty.
好吧 我不认为他有罪
- I want another vote. - OK, that's another vote called for.
- 我要求再投一次票 - 好的 有人要求再投一次票
I guess the quickest way is a show of hands. Anyone object?
最快的方法是举手 有人反对吗?

票数是九比三 无罪的一方占优势
I don't understand you people!
我搞不清楚你们这些人！
All these picky little points you keep bringing up, they don't mean nothing!
你们提出的那些细节 根本一点都不重要！
You saw this kid just like I did.
你们跟我都看到了那个孩子
Don't tell me you believe that phoney story about losing the knife
你们相信 他说他的刀子不见了
and about being at the movies.
案发时他在看电影的说词
Look, you know how these people lie. It's born in them.
这些人在说谎 那是他们天生的劣根性
I don't have to tell you. They don't know what the truth is!
不必我来提醒你们 他们根本不知道什么是事实！
And they don't need any real big reason to kill someone, either.
听我说 那些人杀人是不必有理由的
No, sir. They get drunk. They're real big drinkers, all of 'em.
他们喝醉了 他们全都烂醉如泥
Someone's lying in the gutter. Nobody's blaming 'em.
突然间有人倒在水沟里 没有人怪他们
That's the way they are by nature. You know what I mean? Violent.
那就是他们天生的劣根性 你们懂吗? 他们有暴力倾向
Where are you going?
你要去哪里?
Human life don't mean as much to them as it does to us.
他们的想法跟我们一样人命是不值钱的
They're lushing it up and fighting all the time, and if somebody gets killed, somebody gets killed! They don't care!
他们老是打成一团 就算有人死了! 他们也不在乎！
Sure, there's some good things about 'em, too. I'm the first one to say that.
他们之间还是有好人 我是第一个会那么说的人
I've known a couple who were OK, but that's the exception.
我认识一两个还不错的混混 但那是例外
Most of 'em, it's like they have no feelings! They can do anything!
大部份的人都很无情! 他们什么事都做得出来!
What's going on here?
这是怎么一回事?
I'm trying to tell you. You're making a big mistake, you people.
我试着告诉你们 你们犯了大错 那孩子是骗子
This kid is a liar. I know it. I know all about them.
我知道 我太了解那些人了
Listen to me. They're no good. There's not a one of 'em who's any good.
听我说 他们都是大坏蛋 他们之中根本没有好人
What's going on here?
这到底是怎么一回事?
I speak my piece, and you...
我说出我的想法 你们…
Listen to me.
听我说

Now, sit down and don't open your mouth again.
请你坐下把你的嘴巴闭上
Some of the time...I tell you.
有时候…我告诉你
It's always difficult to keep personal prejudice out of a thing like this.
面对这种事要排除个人的偏见真的很难
Wherever you run into it, prejudice always obscures the truth.
不论去到哪里 偏见总是遮蔽了真相
I don't really know what the truth is.
我真的不知道真相是什么
I don't suppose anybody will ever really know.
我想应该没有任何人知道真相是什么
Nine of us now seem to feel that the defendant is innocent.
我们九个人现在觉得被告是无辜的
But we're just gambling on probabilities. We may be wrong.
但我们是在赌一个可能性 或许我们错了
We may be trying to let a guilty man go free. I don't know.
我们或许会放走一个杀人犯 我不知道
Nobody really can. But we have a reasonable doubt.
没有人知道 但我们有合理的怀疑
And that's something that's very valuable in our system.
那是我们的司法制度中非常珍贵的一部份
No jury can declare a man guilty unless it's sure.
除非十分确定陪审团无法判决被告有罪
We nine can't understand how you three are still so sure.
我们九个人不了解你们三个为什么还那么地确定
- Maybe you can tell us. - I'll try.
- 或是你们可以好好解释一下 - 我会的
You've made some excellent points, but I still believe the boy is guilty.
有说地方你的确很有说服力 但我相信那孩子有罪
I have two reasons.
原因有二
One: The evidence given by the woman across the street, who actually saw the murder committed.

That's the most important testimony.

She said she went to bed about eleven o'clock that night.
她说案发当晚她大约在十一点上床睡觉
Her bed was next to the window, and she could look out
她的床就在窗户旁边 只要她一往外看
and see directly into the boy's room across the street.
她可以看到那孩子在对街的房间
She tossed and turned for over an hour.
那晚她翻来覆去大约一个小时
Finally, she turned toward the window at about 10 minutes after 12,
大约在十二点十分她转身面向窗户
and as she looked out
她往外一看
she saw the killing through the windows of a passing el train.

She said the lights went out after the killing
她说在凶案发生后四周是一片漆黑
but that she got a good look at the boy in the act of stabbing his father.
但她非常清楚地看到那孩子拿刀刺向他父亲
As far as I can see it, this is unshakeable testimony.
在我的看法里 这项证词坚不可破
- Well, that's the whole case. - What do you think?
- 就是那么一回事 - 你有什么看法?
How about you?
你觉得呢?
I don't know.
我不知道
So much evidence to sift. This is a pretty complicated business.
很多证词都有待调查 这是一个很复杂的案子
Frankly, I don't see how you can vote for acquittal.
老实说我不明白你们为什么会认为他无罪
It's not so easy to arrange the evidence.
要安排这样的证词并不容易
Throw out all the other evidence! The woman saw him do it!
抛开其他的证据不谈! 那位女士真的看到他了!
What else do you want?
你还要什么样的证据呢?
- Well, maybe... - Let's vote on it.
- 或许… - 我们来投票吧
OK, there's another vote called for. Anyone object?
好吧 有人要求再度投票 有人反对吗?
All right. I'm changing my vote. He's guilty.
好吧 我改变了心意 他有罪
Anybody else? The vote is eight to four.
其他人呢? 现在票数是八比四
Why is this such a personal triumph for you, this one vote?
为什么你那么得意呢? 那只是一票
OK. I say we're a hung jury. I say we take it in to the judge.
我说过此案会形成悬判 这样子告诉法官吧
How about it? I wanna hear arguments.
你们觉得如何呢? 我想听听大家的意见
You, you're the leader of the cause. What about it?
这都是你惹出来的 你觉得如何呢?
- Let's go over it again. - We've been over it again.
- 我们再来讨论一次 - 我们已经讨论过了
The boy in the grey flannel suit is bouncin' back and forth like a tennis ball.
那孩子像球一样被我们踢来踢去
There's no point in getting nasty. You keep trying to turn this into a contest.
我们不该再折磨他了 你只是想为自己争一口气
OK.
好吧
Maybe we can talk about setting some kind of time limit.
或许我们该应该订出一个最后期限
Yeah. Once around for the deal, huh?
时间一到我们就得做出结论
It's... a quarter after six. Someone before mentioned seven o'clock.
现在是六点十五分 之前有人提过七点要吃晚餐
That's a point at which we might begin to discuss whether we're a hung jury or not.
我们就讨论到七点不论这个案子会不会形成悬判
- Don't you feel well? - I feel perfectly well, thank you.
- 你不舒服吗? - 我很好 谢谢你
I was saying seven o'clock would be a reasonable time...
我觉得讨论到七点是个合理的…
The reason I asked that was because you were rubbing your nose like...
我会那么说是因为你一直在按摩你的鼻子…
Oh, I'm sorry for interrupting. But you made a gesture that reminded me of something.
对不起 你的动作让我想起了一件事
- I'm trying to settle something here. - Well, I think this is important.
- 我正在说服大家订出规则来 - 我觉得这件事非常重要

Now, then. I'm sure you'll pardon me for this

but I was wondering why you rub your nose like that.
我一直在想你为什么要那样按摩你的鼻子
Come on, will you?
少来了
At this point I happen to be talking to the gentleman sitting next to you.
我是在跟坐在你隔壁的先生说话
Now, why were you rubbing your nose like that?
你为什么要那样按摩你的鼻子?
If it's any of your business, I was rubbing it because it bothers me a little.
我会这么做 是因为我觉得鼻子很痛
Oh, I'm sorry. Is it...is it because of your eyeglasses?
对不起 那是因为你戴眼镜的关系吗?
It is. Now could we get on to something else?
没错 我们可以谈正事了吗?
Your eyeglasses made those two deep impressions on the sides of your nose.
你的眼镜在鼻梁侧面压出那些很深的印子
I hadn't noticed that before. That must be annoying.
我之前没有注意到 那应该会很痛
It is very annoying.
你说的对
I wouldn't know about that. I've never worn eyeglasses.
我不了解那种感觉 我的视力很好没有戴过眼镜
Listen, will you come on already with the optometrist bit?
请你别谈这些眼科医生才会关心的事好吗?
The woman who testified that she saw the killing
出庭作证 说她看到凶案经过的那位女士
had those same marks on the sides of her nose.
鼻梁侧面也有相同的印子
- Holy smoke! He's right. - Please.
- 天啊! 他说的对 - 请安静
Just give me a minute...and I'll be finished.
再给我一点时间 让我把话说完
I don't know if anyone else noticed that about her.
我不知道其他人是否注意到
I didn't think of it then, but I've been going over her face...in my mind.
那时我并不在意但我的脑海中一直浮现她的脸庞
She had those same marks. She kept rubbing them in court.
她脸上也有这样的印子 她在法庭上也一直在按摩鼻子
He's right. She did do that a lot.
他说的对 她的确常常那么做
This woman was about 45 years old.
这位女士大约是四十五岁
She was making a tremendous effort to look 35.
她很努力让自己看起来只有三十五岁的样子
For her first public appearance. Heavy make-up. Dyed hair.
她化了浓妆 染了头发
Brand-new clothes that should have been worn by a younger woman.
穿上年轻女孩才会穿的新衣服
No glasses. Well, women do that. See if you can get a mental picture of her.
她没有戴眼镜 女人常那么做 你们应该能了解她们的心态
What do you mean, no glasses? How do you know whether she wore glasses?
你是什么意思? 你怎么知道她有戴眼镜?
- Just cos she was rubbin' her nose? - She had those marks. I saw 'em.
- 就因为她会按摩鼻子吗? - 她脸上也有那种印子
- So? What do you think that means? - I'm sick of your yellin'...
- 你觉得那代表什么意思? - 我厌倦了你总是大吼大叫…
Come on. Forget it.
好了 别激动
Hey, listen. Listen, he's right. I saw them too. I was the closest one to her.
听着 他说的对 我也看到了 我是最靠近她的人
She had these things on the side of her nose. What point are you makin'?
她鼻子上也有那些印子 这是叫什么来着的?
She had dyed hair, marks on her nose. What does that mean?
她染了头发 鼻子上有印子 你想要证明什么?
She had these things on the side of her nose.
那代表什么意思?
Could those marks be made by anything other than eyeglasses?
这些印子可能是除了眼镜以外的其他东西造成的吗?
No. They couldn't.
不可能
I didn't see any marks!
我没看到她鼻子上有印子
I did. Strange, but I didn't think about it before.
我看到了 奇怪的是 我之前没有想到这一点
Why didn't the lawyer say something?
律师呢? 他为什么没有提出质疑?
There are twelve people in here concentrating on this case. Eleven of us didn't think of it either.
这个房间里有十二个人有十一个人也没有想到这一点
What about the district attorney?
检察官呢?
You think he'd pull that? Have her testify without her glasses?
你觉得是他要她 在出庭时拿下眼镜吗?
Ever see a woman who didn't want to wear them because they spoil her looks?
有些女人不喜欢戴眼镜因为戴上眼镜她们会变得很丑
OK. She had marks on her nose.
好吧 她的鼻子上有印子
I'm givin' you that. From glasses, right?
我承认这一点 那是眼镜造成的 对吧?
She didn't wanna wear 'em out of the house so people'd think she's gorgeous.
她不想戴上眼镜那样子大家会觉得她很漂亮
But when she saw this kid killin' his father, she was in the house alone.
但她看到那孩子杀死他父亲时 她是一个人待在房里
That's all.
就是那样
Do you wear glasses when you go to bed?
你会戴着眼镜睡觉吗?
No. I don't. No one wears eyeglasses to bed.
我不会那么做 没有人会戴着眼镜睡觉
It's logical to assume that she wasn't wearing them in bed.
所以我们可能合理地推论她躺在床上时并没有戴眼镜
- How do you know? - I don't know. I'm guessing.
- 你怎么知道? - 那是我的推论
I'm also guessing that she didn't put them on when she looked out of the window.
我推论她往窗外看去时并没有戴眼镜
She testified the killing took place just as she looked out.
她作证说 案发时她刚好往窗外看去
The lights went off. She didn't have time to put them on.
灯是关着的 她根本没有时间把眼镜戴上
Here's another guess.
还有另一个推论
She honestly thought she saw the boy kill his father. I say she only saw a blur.
她真的认为她看到了那个孩子 但我觉得她只看到模糊的影子
How do you know what she saw? How does he know all that?
你怎么知道她看到了什么? 他怎么会知道那么多事?
How do you know what glasses she wore? Maybe they were sunglasses! Maybe she was far-sighted!
你怎么知道她戴的是哪一种眼镜? 可能是太阳镜! 或许她得的是远视!
- What do you know? - I only know the woman's eyesight is in question now.
- 你怎么会知道? - 那个女人的视力现在成了争议
She had to be able to identify a person 60 feet away, at night, without glasses.
她得在昏暗的夜色中不戴眼镜辨识出六十尺外的人
You can't send someone off to die on evidence like that.
只靠这样的证据你不能让一个人坐上电椅
Aw, don't give me that.
少来这一套
- Might she not have made a mistake? - No.
- 你觉得她看错了吗? - 不
- It's not possible? - No, it's not possible.
