零保释金被放犯人！性侵萨城妇女并放火毁尸灭迹！
（SACBEE）Tragic Sacramento murder should make California rethink releasing some prisoners from jail
萨克拉门托的悲惨谋杀案应该让加州重新考虑释放一些囚犯
Flowers and dog biscuits rest on the doorstep of a home on 11th Avenue in Sacramento’s Land Park neighborhood on Tuesday, Sept. 7, 2021, where a 61-year-old woman and her two dogs were found slain Friday by firefighters responding to a fire.
2021年9月7日，周二，萨克拉门托兰德公园社区第11大道的一户人家门口摆放着鲜花和狗饼干。周五，在这里，一名61岁的妇女和她的两条狗死亡，被救火的消防员发现。
What do we say to the family and friends of Mary Tibbitts, who was brutally murdered in her Land Park home by a man who allegedly killed her two dogs, attempted to sexually assault her and then set her house on fire?
我们要对玛丽·蒂比特的家人和朋友说些什么呢?她在兰德公园的家中被一名男子残忍杀害，据称这名男子杀害了她的两条狗，试图性侵她，然后放火烧了她的房子。
Do we apologize to Tibbitts and those who loved her because her murder is a twisted reminder that some criminals shouldn’t be turned loose for whatever reason, including the political argument that cash bail for inmates should be abolished because it is racist?
我们是否应该向Tibbitts和那些爱她的人道歉，因为她的谋杀是一个扭曲的提醒，不管出于什么原因，一些罪犯都不应该被释放，包括政治观点称囚犯的现金保释应该被废除，或者因为种族主义？
Should we confess to Tibbitts and her family that we are so invested in our own political ideologies that we can’t admit some people need to be incarcerated because they present a real threat to the public if they are turned loose?
我们应该向蒂比特和她的家人承认，我们对自己的政治意识形态投入太多，以至于我们不能承认有些人需要被监禁，因为如果他们被释放，他们会对公众构成真正的威胁?
Or, given the political climate in Sacramento, do we play the liberal card and offer thoughts and prayers on social media — or remain completely silent altogether? Do we then pretend that the murder of a 61-year-old woman in her home really isn’t emblematic of the real danger posed by some inmates being turned loose from the Main Jail in downtown Sacramento?
或者，考虑到萨克拉门托的政治状况，我们是打自由派的牌，在社交媒体上表达想法和祈祷，还是完全保持沉默?那么，我们是不是要假装，在一个61岁的妇女家中被谋杀的事实，并不代表萨克拉门托市中心的主要监狱释放的一些囚犯所构成的真正危险?
Sacramento Police arrested a suspect in the Tibbitts case named Troy Davis. He is 51 and homeless. He has a long criminal record. The night before Tibbitts was murdered on Friday, Davis was apparently captured on the Ring doorbell camera of a Land Park home, masturbating.
萨克拉门托警方逮捕了提比特案的嫌疑人特洛伊·戴维斯。他今年51岁，无家可归。他有很长的犯罪记录。在周五蒂比特被谋杀的前一天晚上，戴维斯显然被陆地公园一家人家的门铃摄像头拍到，当时他正在手淫。
There has to be an acknowledgment that while our criminal justice system has often been unfair to people from marginalized communities, there are exceptions to every rule. Our criminal justice system has to account for those exceptions to keep everyone safe.
我们必须承认，虽然我们的刑事司法系统经常对来自边缘社区的人不公平，但每条规则都有例外。我们的刑事司法系统必须考虑到这些例外情况，以保证每个人的安全。
Any movement toward criminal justice reform that allows this to happen and simply shrugs it off is not one that protects the interests of the public.
任何允许这种情况发生并对此不屑一顾的刑事司法改革运动都不能保护公众的利益。
On that note, right now we don’t really know why Davis was released from jail in June. Was it zero bail? Was it the order of a judge? Was it the call of a deputy district attorney? The Sheriff’s Office, which runs the jail?
说到这一点，目前我们还不知道为什么 Davis 在6月被释放。是零保释金吗?这是法官的命令吗?是地方副检察官打来的电话吗?管理监狱的警长办公室?
Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Sgt. Rodney Grassmann blamed it on politics.
萨克拉门托县警长办公室发言人罗德尼·格拉斯曼(Rodney Grassmann)将其归咎于政治。
“Judges then implement these laws and release subjects that fall into the zero bail which is the case here as the murder charges came days after the subject was released on the zero bail charges,” he told The Bee.
他对the Bee说:“法官会执行这些法律，释放那些被判零保释金的人，就像这里的情况一样，谋杀指控是在这个人被判零保释金后几天提出的。”
So the general public is caught between two ideological forces: Zero bail advocates on one side, people like Grassmann on the other.
因此，公众被夹在两股意识形态力量之间:一边是零保释倡导者，另一边是格拉斯曼这样的人。
The voters rejected ending cash bail last year, but the California Supreme Court has ruled that defendants can’t be jailed simply because they can’t afford bail. The justices did leave room for judges to consider criminal histories of defendants and whether it’s safe to turn a prisoner loose.
选民去年拒绝终止现金保释，但加州最高法院裁定，被告不能仅仅因为支付不起保释费用而被监禁。法官们确实给法官留出了考虑被告犯罪史以及释放囚犯是否安全的空间。
What happened in this case? Why was this prisoner released?
在这个案例中发生了什么?为什么这个囚犯被释放了?
If Davis is convicted of this crime, what will we say then?
如果戴维斯被判有罪，我们会怎么说?
