地道美语
Lawyer: Your honor, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, My client, Robert Malone, has been accused of a crime he did not commit. The prosecution has accused my client of being a pickpocket! I know we have heard the testimony of many people here today… people who claim the defendant, my client, stole their wallets. I feel sorry for these victims, I really do…but my client is innocent!

Lawyer: Let’s look at the facts...one: These ’so-called’ witnesses did not actually see the defendant steal anything...two:When the police stopped him, he did not have any of the stolen wallets. There is no evidence.

Lawyer: Therefore, Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, I ask you to think carefully before giving your verdict. My client is innocent!

Judge: Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, have you reached a verdict?

Jury member: Yes, your honor. our verdict is…… not guilty!

Robert: Thank you so much! You were great! Thank you for all your hard work!

Lawyer: You’re welcome, Robert! I knew you were innocent so my job was easy. Take care of yourself, okay?

Robert: Thanks once again...

Lawyer: Hey! Where’s my wallet?

参考译文

律师：法官大人，陪审团的先生们，女士们，我的委托人被控告一项他没有犯的罪。起诉控告我的委托人曾经偷窃他人的财务。我知道我们已经听了许多人的证词……那些人声称被告，也就是我的委托人，偷了他们的钱包。我为这些受害者表示难过，真心表示难过，但是我的委托人是无辜的。

律师：我们来看下事实……第一：这些所谓的目击证人实际上没有看到被告偷东西……第二：当警察逮到他时，他身上并没有偷窃的钱包，没有证据。

律师：所以，陪审团的先生们和女士们，我请你们在做出裁断前要仔细考虑。我的委托人是无辜的。

法官: 陪审团,你们已经做出裁决了吗？

陪审团: 是的，法官大人，我们的裁决是:被告无罪。

罗伯特: 十分感谢。你太伟大了，谢谢你的辛苦工作。

律师：不用谢，Robert!我知道你是无辜的，所以我的工作很容易。照顾好自己，好吧？

罗伯特: 再次谢谢您。

律师：喂！我的钱包哪儿去了？
