There is no legal basis for the charge of felony murder.
这个案子中没有合法的依据支持对重罪谋杀的指控
Breaking and entering a dwelling to commit a felonious assault
强行侵入他人住♥宅♥去实施行凶殴打
is a sufficient predicate to felony murder.
就是重罪谋杀的充分依据
There's case law...
有一个判例。。。
To charge the person who did the actual breaking and entering.
那是用于指控实施强行侵入的当事人的
There is absolutely no case law
但绝对没有
charging the alleged accessory with felony murder.
用重罪谋杀来指控从犯的判例
Any person can be charged as an accessory to any felony.
任何人都可以被指控为任何重罪的从犯
Yes, well, no one ever has under these circumstances,
是，但没有人会在这种情况下
and suddenly, with Bobby Donnell...
莫名其妙地，Bobby Donnell。。。
Even if Bobby Donnell did not conspire to kill William Hinks,
即使Bobby Donnell没有阴谋杀害William Hinks
he gave Mr. Neel William Hinks' address
但他把William Hinks的地址给了Neel
and dispatched him to his home.
然后派他去了那里
Mr. Neel broke into that home.
Neel非法侵入
A murder resulting from a breaking and entering
因非法侵入引起的谋杀
is the exact scenario the legislature had in mind
这是立法机构在制定重罪谋杀判定准则时
when passing the felony murder rule.
所构想的确定场景
There is no evidence that my client was a part of any breaking and entering.
没有证据显示我的客户和任何非法入侵有关
We have a statement from the actual killer.
我们有一个来自实际行凶者的坦白
That would be considered evidence.
那是可以被认定为证据的
Your honor, they know they can't prove this crime.
法官大人，他们明知自己无法证明犯罪行为
They can't show intent,
他们不能呈现出（犯罪）意图
so the prosecution is charging felony murder
所以检方提出重罪谋杀指控
to circumvent their burden of proof.
试图回避他们的举证责任
Yes, well, unless I'm missing something,
没错，好吧，除非我忽略了什么
that is one of the very reasons we have the felony murder rule
减少检方举证责任
to lower the prosecution's burden.
的确是我们制定重罪谋杀原则的一条重要理由
If you look at all the cases where this rule has been applied...
如果您审视一遍所有使用这个规则的案子。。。
The function of the court is not to look...
法庭的职能不是去审视。。。
There is no predicate felony to support these charges.
这个案子不存在什么重犯去支持重罪谋杀的指控
This amounts to selective prosecution against a defense attorney they don't like...
