The mother of Reeva Steenkamp says she is “not convinced” Oscar Pistorius has been rehabilitated after news broke this week that her daughter’s killer is set to be released from prison on parole in January 2024.
瑞瓦·斯廷坎普的母親表示,她“不相信”奧斯卡·皮斯托瑞斯已經(jīng)康復(fù),因?yàn)楸局苡邢⒎Q(chēng),殺害她女兒的兇手將于2024年1月假釋出獄。
On Friday, June Steenkamp opened up in a victim impact statement obtained by PEOPLE and urged the parole board panels to take measures toward fairly evaluating an inmate’s rehabilitation by determining whether the convicted is truly remorseful.
周五,June Steenkamp在《人物》雜志獲得的一份受害者影響聲明中發(fā)表了自己的看法,并敦促假釋委員會(huì)采取措施,通過(guò)確定被定罪者是否真的后悔來(lái)公平評(píng)估囚犯的康復(fù)情況。
"At this time, I am not convinced that Oscar has been rehabilitated,” June said of the former Paralympic gold medalist who was sentenced to 13 years and five months in prison by a South African court in 2016 for the murder of Reeva.
“在這個(gè)時(shí)候,我不相信奧斯卡已經(jīng)恢復(fù)了名譽(yù),”朱恩說(shuō),這位前殘奧會(huì)金牌得主因謀殺里瓦于2016年被南非法院判處13年零5個(gè)月監(jiān)禁。
“Rehabilitation requires someone to engage honestly with the full truth of his crime and the consequences thereof,” she continued. “Nobody can claim to have remorse if they are not able to engage fully with the truth. If someone does not show remorse, they cannot be considered to be rehabilitated.”
“康復(fù)需要一個(gè)人誠(chéng)實(shí)地面對(duì)自己罪行的全部真相及其后果,”她繼續(xù)說(shuō)道。“如果不能充分了解真相,沒(méi)有人能聲稱(chēng)自己有悔意。如果一個(gè)人沒(méi)有表現(xiàn)出悔意,他們就不能被認(rèn)為是改過(guò)自新。”
On Valentine's Day in 2013, Pistorius fatally shot his girlfriend, Reeva, multiple times through a closed bathroom door. The double-amputee — who earned the nickname, "Blade Runner," and made history in 2012 as the first Paralympian to compete in the Olympics — shot the law graduate and model at his Pretoria, South Africa, home, authorities said.
2013年的情人節(jié),皮斯托瑞斯隔著一扇關(guān)著的浴室門(mén)向女友瑞瓦開(kāi)了幾槍?zhuān)缕渌劳?。?dāng)局稱(chēng),這位雙腿截肢者——綽號(hào)“銀翼殺手”,并在2012年創(chuàng)造了歷史,成為第一位參加奧運(yùn)會(huì)的殘奧會(huì)運(yùn)動(dòng)員——在南非比勒陀利亞的家中槍殺了這位法學(xué)院畢業(yè)生兼模特。
During his trial, Pistorius admitted to shooting Reeva four times but claimed he mistook her for an intruder. He pleaded not guilty. However, prosecutors argued he intentionally killed Reeva in a fit of rage.
在審判期間,皮斯托瑞斯承認(rèn)向里瓦開(kāi)了四槍?zhuān)暦Q(chēng)他把她誤認(rèn)為是入侵者。他拒不認(rèn)罪。然而,檢察官認(rèn)為他是在暴怒之下故意殺害里瓦的。
Pistorius, now 37, has been behind bars since 2013. According to the Department of Correctional Services in South Africa, the parole board has set his release for Jan. 5, 2024.
現(xiàn)年37歲的皮斯托瑞斯自2013年以來(lái)一直在獄中。據(jù)南非懲教服務(wù)部門(mén)稱(chēng),假釋委員會(huì)已將他的釋放時(shí)間定為2024年1月5日。
“I had forgiven Oscar long ago, as I knew almost instantly that I would not be able to survive if I had to cling to my anger,” June said in the statement. “I do not believe Oscar’s version that he thought the person in the toilet was a burglar. In fact, I do not know anybody who does. My dearest child screamed for her life; loud enough for the neighbours to hear her.”
瓊在聲明中說(shuō):“我很久以前就原諒了奧斯卡,因?yàn)槲規(guī)缀趿⒖叹椭溃绻冶仨殘?jiān)持自己的憤怒,我將無(wú)法生存。”“我不相信奧斯卡的說(shuō)法,他認(rèn)為廁所里的人是竊賊。事實(shí)上,我不知道有誰(shuí)知道。我最親愛(ài)的孩子尖叫著要她的命;聲音大到鄰居都能聽(tīng)到。”
In a statement shared on X (formerly known as Twitter) on Friday, the Department of Correctional Services said Pistorius will be monitored by the authorities until his sentence expires.
周五,美國(guó)懲教署在推特上發(fā)表聲明稱(chēng),皮斯托瑞斯將受到當(dāng)局的監(jiān)視,直到刑期屆滿(mǎn)。
