因为有些字超出我的词汇,所以提供原文对照
NEW YORK — Terry Rozier’s legal and NBA issues played out in a Brooklyn federal courtroom Monday afternoon as his lawyer pushed for a fast resolution to the case federal prosecutors brought against him in October in an alleged illegal sports gambling scheme.
纽约——Terry Rozier 涉及的法律问题与 NBA 相关争议,于周一下午在布鲁克林的联邦法院登场。
他的律师在庭上主张,希望能尽快解决联邦检察官在十月对他提起的、与涉嫌非法体育赌博计画有关的案件。
Jim Trusty, Rozier’s attorney, told Judge LaShann DeArcy Hall that Rozier’s legal issues since his October arrest and indictment, and the reported news of his investigation last winter, have been “professionally devastating” for Rozier.
Rozier 的律师 Jim Trusty 告诉法官 ,指出自从 Rozier 在十月遭到逮捕并被起诉以来,加上去年冬天有关调查他的新闻报导,这些法律问题对 Rozier 的职业生涯造成了“毁灭性”的打击。
He is facing two federal charges — conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering — as part of a sprawling indictment out of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York.
他目前面临两项联邦指控——共谋犯下电汇诈欺以及洗钱——这是纽约东区联邦检察官办公室众多起诉的一部分。
Rozier pleaded not guilty to both charges early Monday afternoon in his first federal court appearance and was released on $3 million bond.
Rozier 在周一下午稍早首次出现在联邦法院时,对两项指控皆进行无罪辩护,并以 300 万美元保释金获准交保候传。
Hours later, in a status hearing in front of Hall, Trusty said he wants Rozier’s case to move quickly.
数小时之后,在 Hall 法官主持的一场案件进度听证中,Trusty 表示他希望 Rozier 的案件能加速推进。
Rozier was placed on unpaid administrative leave by the NBA in October after his arrest and has been ordered to stay away from the Heat.
自从十月遭逮捕后,Rozier 被 NBA 置于无薪假状态,并被要求不得接近迈阿密热火队。
The National Basketball Players Association filed a grievance with the league over it.
球员工会(NBPA)已就此向联盟提出申诉。
Trusty said he will have an arbitration hearing with the league later this month — Dec. 17, according to a source briefed on the matter, and it will contest only that Rozier’s leave is unpaid.
Trusty 表示,他本月稍后将就此事与联盟进行仲裁听证——根据一名知情人士的说法,时间订在 12 月 17 日——而该仲裁只会针对“Rozier 是否应该无薪休假”这一点提出争议。
Rozier was set to make $26.6 million salary in this last season of a four-year, $96.3 million contract.
Rozier 原本在这份 4 年、总值 9,630 万美元合约的最后一季,预计可领到 2,660 万美元的薪水。
Hall, the federal judge overseeing the case, had little interest in Rozier’s NBA proceedings and said that would not impact the schedule for the case.
负责审理本案的联邦法官对 Rozier 在 NBA 的相关程序并不感兴趣,并表示那不会影响本案的诉讼进度安排。
“His arbitration hearing is of no concern to me,” she said.
“他的仲裁听证与我无关。”她说。
Trusty said he will file a motion to dismiss the case Tuesday; Evan Corcoran, the lawyer for Laster, said he will likely join him.
Trusty 表示,他将在周二提出撤诉动议;Laster 的律师 Evan Corcoran 则表示,他很可能会一同加入这项动议。
“We still have factual innocence to deal with, but for now, getting an opportunity to litigate a significant legal motion is a good thing,” Trusty said after the second hearing.
Trusty 在第二场听证结束后表示:“我们仍然要处理事实层面上的清白问题,但目前来说,能有机会就一项重要的法律动议进行诉讼,是件好事。”
Rozier was joined in court by Deniro Laster, a co-defendant in the case.
Rozier 与同案被告 Deniro Laster 一同出现在法庭上。
Both were arrested and indicted in October in what federal prosecutors say was their involvement in an illegal sports gambling scheme.
两人都在十月遭逮捕并被起诉。联邦检察官指控,他们涉入一项非法体育赌博计画。
Laster, Rozier’s friend, also pleaded not guilty and was released on $50,000 bond.
Laster 是 Rozier 的朋友,他同样否认犯罪,并以 5 万美元保释金获释。
The federal government has charged dozens of people in two separate gambling investigations. Here’s how the feds say they’re connected.
联邦政府在两起不同的赌博调查中起诉了数十名被告,以下是联邦方面所描述、这些人彼此之间是如何被串连在一起的。
The two are facing federal wire fraud and money laundering conspiracy charges.
这两人正面临联邦层级的电汇诈欺与洗钱共谋指控。
Prosecutors say Rozier told Laster he would remove himself early from a March 2023 game while he was still with the Charlotte Hornets.
检方指出,Rozier 在 2023 年 3 月的一场比赛中(当时他仍效力于夏洛特黄蜂队),曾告诉 Laster 他会提前退出那场比赛。
According to the indictment, Laster then sold that information to two sports gamblers, who bet on it and sent it to others as part of a wagering syndicate.
根据起诉书内容,之后 Laster 将这项资讯出售给两名体育赌客,这两人以此下注,并把消息传给其他人,形成一个投注集团的一部分。
Rozier and Laster sat feet apart at tables next to each other Monday as the judge arraigned them in their case.
周一在法官为本案进行提审时,Rozier 与 Laster 坐在彼此只有几英尺距离的桌旁。
Rozier secured his bond with his Florida home, and Laster relied on his mother and cousin and sureties.
Rozier 以他在佛罗里达的住所作为保释担保;Laster 则是由他的母亲、表亲以及其他担保人协助提供保证。
Later, they sat at the same table as the four other co-defendants in the case.
之后,他们与本案的另外四名共同被告坐在同一张桌子旁。
Rozier and Damon Jones, the former NBA veteran and assistant coach, sat just one seat apart.
Rozier 与 Damon Jones——这位前 NBA 资深球员兼助理教练——之间只隔了一个座位。
Rozier, Laster, Jones and the other defendants — Marves Fairley, Shane Hennen and Eric Earnest — are expected back in court on March 3, when the judge will hear the next update on the case.
Rozier、Laster、Jones 以及其他被告——Marves Fairley、Shane Hennen 与 Eric Earnest——预计将在 3 月 3 日再度出庭,法官届时将听取本案的最新进度。
Benjamin Weintraub, an assistant U.S. attorney prosecuting the case, said prosecutors will deliver discovery soon.
负责本案的助理联邦检察官 Benjamin Weintraub 表示,检方将很快提供证据开示资料。
The first batch, he said, is expected to include more than 1,000 documents and more than 55 gigabytes of data that includes bank, phone and betting records, as well as payments between each other.
他指出,第一批资料预计将包含超过 1,000 份文件以及超过 55 GB 的数据,资料内容包括银行纪录、通话记录、投注纪录,以及被告之间的金钱往来纪录。
Once that happens, he said prosecutors expect to begin plea negotiations with some of the defendants.
他表示,在这些资料交付之后,检方预期会开始与部分被告展开认罪协商。
Note. 原本普遍认为如果检察官愿意给弱企鹅低刑度的罪行,他会认罪,因为他现在因为被起诉无法拿到一年2600多万的薪资。但联盟的态度很明确,球员涉赌就是从重处理。所以几乎不可能接受认罪协商 。 再加上NPBA的协助,说不定最终会变成拖过这一年把薪水领完才认罪,律师无罪辩护的策略只是在施压联盟。
