Serial, The Alibi (1)

The Alibi (1)

Sarah Koenig For the last year, I've spent every working day trying to figure out where a high school kid was for an hour after school one day in 1999-- or if you want to get technical about it, and apparently I do, where a high school kid was for 21 minutes after school one day in 1999. This search sometimes feels undignified on my part. I've had to ask about teenagers' sex lives, where, how often, with whom, about notes they passed in class, about their drug habits, their relationships with their parents. And I'm not a detective or a private investigator. I've not even a crime reporter. But, yes, every day this year, I've tried to figure out the alibi of a 17-year-old boy. Before I get into why I've been doing this, I just want to point out something I'd never really thought about before I started working on this story. And that is, it's really hard to account for your time, in a detailed way, I mean.

How'd you get to work last Wednesday, for instance? Drive? Walk? Bike? Was it raining? Are you sure? Did you go to any stores that day? If so, what did you buy? Who did you talk to? The entire day, name every person you talked to. It's hard.

Now imagine you have to account for a day that happened six weeks back. Because that's the situation in the story I'm working on in which a bunch of teenagers had to recall a day six weeks earlier. And it was 1999, so they had to do it without the benefit of texts or Facebook or Instagram. Just for a lark, I asked some teenagers to try it.

Sarah Koenig Do you remember what you did on that Friday?

Tyler No. Not at all. I can't remember anything.

Sarah Koenig Wait, nothing?

Tyler No. I can't remember anything that far back. I'm pretty sure I was in school. I think-- no?

Sarah Koenig That's Tyler. He's 18. I asked my nephew Sam. He's 18, too.

Sam Not a clue. In school, probably. I would be in school. Actually, I think I worked that day.Yeah, I worked that day. And I went to school. That was about it. Actually, on second thought? I don't think I went to school that day.

Sarah Koenig You don't think you went.

Sam Yeah, no, I didn't. I definitely didn't.

Sarah Koenig Here's Sam's friend Elliot. He seemed to have better recall.

Elliot Actually, I may have gone to the movies that night later.

Sarah Koenig Do you remember what you saw?

Elliot Now that I'm thinking. I'm sorry? Yeah, I think I saw 22 Jump Street.

Sarah Koenig OK. And did you go with friends?

Elliot Yeah. I went with Sam and this kid Sean, Carter, a bunch of people.

Sarah Koenig Wait, Sam, my nephew Sam?

Elliot Yeah, yeah.

Sarah Koenig Oh, OK. So Sam says he was at work.

Elliot Oh, then it wasn't that night, then.

Sarah Koenig One kid did actually remember pretty well, because it was the last day of state testing at his school and he'd saved up to go to a nightclub. That's the main thing I learned from this exercise, which is no big shocker, I guess. If some significant event happened that day, you remember that, plus you remember the entire day much better. If nothing significant happened, then the answers get very general. I most likely did this, or I most likely did that. These are words I've heard a lot lately. Here's the case I've been working on.

Almost 15 years ago, on January 13, 1999, a girl named Hae Min Leedisappeared. She was a senior at Woodlawn High School in Baltimore County in Maryland. She was Korean. She was smart, and beautiful, and cheerful, and a great athlete. She played field hockey and lacrosse. And she was responsible.

Right after school she was supposed to pick up her little cousin from kindergarten and drop her home. But she didn't show. That's when Hae Lee's family knew something was up, when the cousin's school called.

About a month later, on February 9, Hae's body was found in a big park in Baltimore, really a rambling forest. A maintenance guy who said he'd stopped to take a leak on his way to work discovered her there. He'd noticed a bit of her black hair poking out of a shallow grave.

The cause of death was manual strangulation, meaning someone did it with their hands. A couple weeks after that, so six weeks after she first went missing, Hae's ex-boyfriend, a guy named Adnan Syed, was arrested for her murder. He's been in prison ever since.

I first heard about this story more than a year ago when I got an email from a woman named Rabia Chaudry. Rabia knows Adnan pretty well. Her younger brother Saad is Adnan's best friend. And they believe he's innocent. Rabia was writing to me because, way back when, I used to be a reporter for the Baltimore Sun, and she'd come across some stories I'd written about a well-known defense attorney in Baltimore who'd been disbarred for mishandling client money. That attorney was the same person who defended Adnan, her last major trial, in fact.

Rabia told me she thought the attorney botched the case-- not just botched it, actually, but threw the case on purpose so she could get more money for the appeal. The lawyer had died a few years later. She'd been sick. Rabia asked if I would please just take a look at Adnan's case. I don't get emails like this every day. So I thought, sure, why not?

I read a few newspaper clips about the case, looked up a few trial records. And on paper, the case was like a Shakespearean mashup-- young lovers from different worlds thwarting their families, secret assignations, jealousy, suspicion, and honor besmirched, the villain not a Moor exactly, but a Muslim all the same, and a final act of murderous revenge. And the main stage? A regular old high school across the street from a 7-Eleven.

Sarah Koenig Hi, are you Rabia? Hi. Am I saying your name correctly?

Rabia Rabia.

Sarah Koenig Rabia. OK.

Sarah Koenig I went to go see Rabia. She was surrounded by paper-- files, loose stacks, binders, some crappy looking boxes-- all court documents and attorney's files from Adnan's case. Some of the papers were warped and discolored.

Sarah Koenig Why do they look wet? They look wet.

Rabia These have been damaged, because these--

Sarah Koenig She explained that it was because the boxes had been in her car, on and off, for 15 years. Rabia is a lawyer herself. She mostly does immigration stuff. Her office takes up the corner of a much larger open space that I think is a Pakistani travel agency, though it's hard to tell.

It's in this little strip mall. Across the parking lot, there's a new Pakistani restaurant, an African evangelical church, an Indian clothing shop, a convenience store. On the sidewalk outside, I found a teeny weeny bag of marijuana. Baltimore County is like this, at least on the west side. It's where a lot of middle class and working class people go, many immigrants included, to get their kids out of the badass city. Though the badass city is close by.

Rabia is 40. She's short, and she's got a beautiful round face framed by hijab. She's adorable looking, but you definitely shouldn't mess with her. She's very smart and very tough, and she could crush you. Her brother Saad was at Rabia's office too the first time I went. He's 33, a mortgage broker, more laid back than Rabia. They told me about Adnan Syed, their friend-- not just a good kid, but an especially good kid-- smart, kind, goofy, handsome. So that when he was arrested for murder, so many people who know him were stunned.

Rabia He was like the community's golden child.

Sarah Koenig Oh, really? Talk more about that.

Rabia He was an honor roll student, volunteer EMT. He was on the football team. He was a star runner on the track team. He was the homecoming king. He led prayers at the mosque. Everybody knew Adnan to be somebody who was going to do something really big.

Sarah Koenig I later fact checked all these accolades, of course, and learned that Rabia was mostly right, though she sometimes gets a little loosey-goosey with the details. Adnan was an EMT, but he didn't volunteer. He was paid for it. He was on the track team, but he wasn't a star. He did play football. And he did lead prayers on occasion.

He wasn't homecoming king. But he was prince of his junior prom, and this at a high school that was majority black. They picked the Pakistani Muslim kid. So you get the picture. He was an incredibly likable and well-liked kid.

This conversation with Rabia and Saad, this is what launched me on this year long-- "obsession" is maybe too strong a word-- let's say fascination with this case. By the end of this hour, you're going to hear different people tell different versions of what happened the day Hae Lee was killed. But let's start with the most important version of the story, the one Rabia told me first. And that's the one that was presented at trial.

The state's case against Adnan went like this. He and Hae had been going out since junior prom. But Adnan wasn't supposed to be dating at all. Adnan was born in the US, but his parents are from Pakistan. And they're conservative Muslims-- no drinking, no smoking, no girls, all that.

Saad and Rabia's parents are the same way. Their families are friends. But even though Adnan and Saad and their buddies were Muslims, they were also, shall we say, healthy American teenagers who were going to do what teenagers do, so long as they didn't get caught.

So Adnan had to keep his relationship with Hae secret. The state used this against him in two ways. First, they argued, he put everything on the line-- his family, his relationships at the mosque-- to run around with this girl. So that when she broke up with him eight months later, he was left with nothing, and he was outraged. He couldn't take it, and he killed her.

And the second way they used it, as they said-- look at what a liar he is, how duplicitous. He plays the good Muslim son at home and at the mosque, but look what he was up to. Saad remembers the prosecutor's closing argument at trial.

Saad His family didn't know that he actually drank, he smoked, he was having sex.

Sarah Koenig This was proof of bad character, someone who could be a murderer. But Saad says, if Adnan is guilty of anything, it's of being a normal kid with immigrant parents.

Saad So the prosecution had painted Adnan as a totally bipolar or a maniacal dual personality. We all grew up with that dual personality. I know, it was forced. I'm the same way. I was like, they could paint the same thing. Because I was actually homecoming king, which I don't know if my sister even knows.

Rabia I did not know this.

Saad She did not know. So I was dating a girl that was--

Sarah Koenig And why is homecoming king bad? That sounds like a good thing.

Rabia We don't go to homecoming. We don't--

Sarah Koenig Because it's a dance.

Rabia It's a dance. It's a mixed gender--

Saad So I was in the same boat. My parents, my sister, they didn't know about this at all. Right now, more than 10 year later, she's finding out. I know, I'll admit. On one side, my family thinks I'm a virgin. But on the other hand, I play-- you know.

Sarah Koenig Im letzten Jahr habe ich jeden Arbeitstag damit verbracht, herauszufinden, wo ein High-School-Kind eines Tages im Jahr 1999 für eine Stunde nach der Schule war – oder wenn Sie es technisch wissen wollen, und anscheinend tue ich das, wo ein Highschool-Kind eines Tages im Jahr 1999 21 Minuten nach der Schule war.

Sarah Koenig Przez ostatni rok, spędzałam każdy dzień roboczy, próbując dowiedzieć się, gdzie uczeń szkoły średniej był na godzinę po szkole pewnego dnia w 1999 r. – lub jeśli chcesz się tym zająć technicznie, i najwyraźniej tak robię, gdzie pewnego dnia w 1999 roku uczeń szkoły średniej przebywał 21 minut po szkole. Sarah Koenig No ano passado, passei todos os dias tentando descobrir onde um garoto do ensino médio estava por uma hora depois da escola em um dia de 1999 - ou se você quiser ser técnico sobre isso, e aparentemente eu quero, onde um garoto do ensino médio ficou 21 minutos depois da escola em um dia de 1999. Сара Кениг В течение последнего года я каждый рабочий день пыталась выяснить, где школьник был в течение часа после уроков в 1999 году... или, если уж совсем придираться, а я, видимо, придираюсь, где школьник был в течение 21 минуты после уроков в 1999 году. 莎拉·科尼格 (Sarah Koenig) 在过去的一年里,我每个工作日都在试图弄清楚 1999 年的一天,一个高中生放学后一个小时在哪里——或者如果你想从技术角度来理解,显然我想要的是,1999 年的一天,一个高中生放学后 21 分钟在哪里。 This search sometimes feels undignified on my part. |поиск|иногда|кажется|недостойно|с моей стороны||стороне |||seems|lacking dignity|on|| ||||unwürdig||| |||se zdá|nedůstojně||| |||感じる|品位を欠いた||| ||||niegodny||| Toto hledání mi někdy připadá nedůstojné.

About a month later, on February 9, Hae’s body was found in a big park in Baltimore, really a rambling forest. ||||||Haeino||||||||||||bloudivý| ||||||Hae Min Lee|||||||||Baltimore|||sprawling| ||||||ヘイの||||||||||||広大な| ||||||ciało Hae||||||||||||rozległy las| Cca měsíc poté, 9. února, bylo Haeino tělo nalezeno v velkém parku v Baltimore, vlastně v rozlehlém lese. Etwa einen Monat später, am 9. Februar, wurde Haes Leiche in einem großen Park in Baltimore gefunden, eigentlich ein weitläufiger Wald. Cerca de um mês depois, em 9 de fevereiro, o corpo de Hae foi encontrado em um grande parque em Baltimore, na verdade uma floresta extensa. 大约一个月后,2 月 9 日,Hae 的尸体在巴尔的摩的一个大公园里被发现,那实际上是一片杂乱无章的森林。 A maintenance guy who said he’d stopped to take a leak on his way to work discovered her there. |údržbář|||||||udělat||čůrat|||||||| |repair|||||||||urinate|||||||| ||||||||||siku|||||||| Údržbář, který řekl, že se na cestě do práce zastavil, aby si odskočil, ji tam objevil. Ein Hausmeister, der sagte, er habe auf dem Weg zur Arbeit angehalten, um zu lecken, entdeckte sie dort. Um cara da manutenção que disse ter parado para fazer xixi no caminho para o trabalho a descobriu lá. 一名维修工说他在上班途中停下来小便,并在那里发现了她。 He’d noticed a bit of her black hair poking out of a shallow grave. ||||||||vykukující||||mělkého|hrobě |||a small amount|||||sticking out||||not deep|burial site ||||||||突き出ている||||| ||||||||wystające||||płytki grób| Všiml si, že z mělkého hrobu vyčnívá kousek jejích černých vlasů. Er hatte bemerkt, dass ein Stück ihres schwarzen Haares aus einem flachen Grab ragte. Ele notou um pouco de seu cabelo preto saindo de uma cova rasa. 他注意到她的一缕黑发从浅坟里露出来。

The cause of death was manual strangulation, meaning someone did it with their hands. ||||||uškrcení||||||| ||||||manual strangulation||||||| ||||||絞殺||||||| ||||||uduszenie ręczne||||||| Příčinou smrti bylo ruční uškrcení, což znamená, že někdo provedl uškrcení rukama. Die Todesursache war manuelle Strangulation, was bedeutet, dass jemand es mit seinen Händen getan hat. 死亡原因是手动勒死,这意味着有人用手进行勒死。 A couple weeks after that, so six weeks after she first went missing, Hae’s ex-boyfriend, a guy named Adnan Syed, was arrested for her murder. |||||||||||||||||||Adnan|Syed||||| ||||||||||||missing|||||||Adnan Syed|Syed||||| |||||||||||||||||||アドナン|サイード||||| |||||||||||||||||||Adnan Syed|Adnan Syed||||| Ein paar Wochen danach, also sechs Wochen nach ihrem ersten Verschwinden, wurde Haes Ex-Freund, ein Typ namens Adnan Syed, wegen Mordes festgenommen. 几周后,也就是她失踪六周后,Hae 的前男友 Adnan Syed 因谋杀她而被捕。 He’s been in prison ever since. Seitdem sitzt er im Gefängnis.

I first heard about this story more than a year ago when I got an email from a woman named Rabia Chaudry. ||||||||||||||||||||Rabia|Chaudry |||||||||||||||message correspondence|||||Rabia Chaudry|Chaudry ||||||||||||||||||||ラビア|チャウドリー ||||||||||||||||||||Rabii Chaudry|Chaudry Ich habe zum ersten Mal vor mehr als einem Jahr von dieser Geschichte gehört, als ich eine E-Mail von einer Frau namens Rabia Chaudry erhielt. 我第一次听说这个故事是在一年多前,当时我收到一位名叫拉比亚·乔杜里 (Rabia Chaudry) 的女士的电子邮件。 Rabia knows Adnan pretty well. Rabia kennt Adnan ziemlich gut. 拉比亚非常了解阿德南。 Her younger brother Saad is Adnan’s best friend. |||Saad||Adnanova|| |||younger brother||Adnan|| |||サード||アドナンの|| |||Saad||Adnana|| Ihr jüngerer Bruder Saad ist Adnans bester Freund. 她的弟弟萨阿德是阿德南最好的朋友。 And they believe he’s innocent. ||||nevinný ||||not guilty 他们相信他是无辜的。 Rabia was writing to me because, way back when, I used to be a reporter for the Baltimore Sun, and she’d come across some stories I’d written about a well-known defense attorney in Baltimore who’d been disbarred for mishandling client money. |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||obhájce|advokát|||||vyloučen||mishandling|| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||"seiner Zulassung entzogen"|||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||legal||||||removed from practice||mismanaging|| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||弁護||||||弁護士資格||顧客資金|| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||adwokat obrony|||||pozbawiony prawa wykonywania zawodu||niewłaściwe zarządzanie|| Rabia schrieb mir, weil ich vor langer Zeit Reporterin für die Baltimore Sun war und sie auf einige Geschichten gestoßen war, die ich über einen bekannten Verteidiger in Baltimore geschrieben hatte, der wegen Misshandlung vom Anwalt ausgeschlossen worden war Kundengeld. Rabia estava me escrevendo porque, na época, eu costumava ser repórter do Baltimore Sun, e ela se deparou com algumas histórias que escrevi sobre um conhecido advogado de defesa em Baltimore que foi expulso por mau trato dinheiro do cliente. 拉比亚给我写信是因为很久以前我曾是《巴尔的摩太阳报》的记者,她看到了我写的一些关于巴尔的摩一位知名辩护律师的故事,这位律师因不当处理客户资金而被吊销律师执照。 That attorney was the same person who defended Adnan, her last major trial, in fact. |||||||obhajoval||||velký||| |||||||represented|||||||emphasis marker Ten advokát byl stejná osoba, která obhajovala Adnana, její poslední velký proces, ve skutečnosti. Dieser Anwalt war tatsächlich dieselbe Person, die Adnan, ihren letzten großen Prozess, verteidigt hatte. 事实上,那位律师正是阿德南最后一次重大审判的辩护律师。

Rabia told me she thought the attorney botched the case-- not just botched it, actually, but threw the case on purpose so she could get more money for the appeal. |||||||zkazil|||||zkazil||||||||úmyslně|||||||||odvolání |||||||搞砸了||||||||但是||||||||||||为了||上诉 |||||||mishandled|||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||失敗した|||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||spartaczył||||||||||||||||||||||apelacja Rabia mi řekla, že si myslela, že advokát případ zkazil - ne jen zkazil, vlastně, ale záměrně ho hodil, aby získal více peněz za odvolání. Rabia sagte mir, sie dachte, der Anwalt habe den Fall verpfuscht – eigentlich nicht nur verpfuscht, sondern den Fall absichtlich verworfen, damit sie mehr Geld für die Berufung bekommen könnte. Rabia me disse que achava que o advogado estragou o caso - não apenas estragou, na verdade, mas abandonou o caso de propósito para que ela pudesse conseguir mais dinheiro para o recurso. 拉比亚告诉我,她认为律师搞砸了这个案子——实际上,不仅仅是搞砸了,而是故意抛弃这个案子,这样她就可以获得更多的上诉钱。 The lawyer had died a few years later. |advokát|||||| Právník zemřel o několik let později.

Und auf dem Papier war der Fall wie ein Shakespeare-Mashup – junge Liebende aus verschiedenen Welten, die ihre Familien durchkreuzen, geheime Aufträge, Eifersucht, Misstrauen und Ehre beschmutzt, der Bösewicht nicht gerade ein Mohr, aber dennoch ein Muslim, und ein Finale Akt mörderischer Rache. そして紙の上では、事件はシェイクスピアのマッシュアップのようなものでした-家族を妨害するさまざまな世界の若い恋人たち、秘密の割り当て、嫉妬、疑惑、名誉が罵倒され、悪役はムーア人ではなくイスラム教徒であり、最後の殺人的な復讐の行為。 E no papel, o caso era como um mashup de Shakespeare - jovens amantes de mundos diferentes frustrando suas famílias, encontros secretos, ciúmes, suspeitas e honra manchada, o vilão não exatamente um mouro, mas um muçulmano do mesmo jeito, e um último ato de vingança assassina. 而在纸面上,这个案件就像是莎士比亚的混搭作品——来自不同世界的年轻恋人互相阻挠家庭,秘密幽会,嫉妒,猜疑,荣誉被玷污,恶棍不完全是摩尔人,但同样是穆斯林,最后是残忍的复仇。 And the main stage? |hlavní pódium?||pódium A hlavní scéna?

Sarah Koenig I later fact checked all these accolades, of course, and learned that Rabia was mostly right, though she sometimes gets a little loosey-goosey with the details. |||||ověřila|||ocenění|||||||||||||||||uvolněná|||detaily ||||||||||||||||||||||||ungenau|||| ||||||||praise or awards||||||||||||||||carefree|imprecise||| ||||||||称賛||||||||||||||||おおざっぱ|おおざっぱ||| ||||||||pochwały||||||||||||||||niedokładna|niedokładna||| Sarah Koenig, samozřejmě jsem později zkontrolovala všechny tyto ocenění a zjistila, že Rabia měla většinou pravdu, i když se někdy s detaily trochu rozvláčně drží.

This conversation with Rabia and Saad, this is what launched me on this year long-- "obsession" is maybe too strong a word-- let’s say fascination with this case. |||||||||spustilo||||||fascinace|||||||||||| Tento rozhovor s Rabiou a Saadem, to je to, co mě uvedlo do této roční - "obsese" je možná příliš silné slovo - řekněme fascinace tímto případem. 与拉比亚和萨阿德的这次谈话,是促使我今年对这个案子产生兴趣的因素——“痴迷”这个词可能有些太强烈了——我们可以说是对这个案子的迷恋。 By the end of this hour, you’re going to hear different people tell different versions of what happened the day Hae Lee was killed. Na konci této hodiny uslyšíte různé lidi vyprávět různé verze toho, co se stalo v den, kdy byla Hae Lee zabita. Am Ende dieser Stunde werden Sie verschiedene Leute hören, die verschiedene Versionen dessen erzählen, was an dem Tag passiert ist, als Hae Lee getötet wurde. 这一小时结束后,你会听到不同的人讲述李海被杀那天发生的事情的不同版本。 But let’s start with the most important version of the story, the one Rabia told me first. Ale začněme s nejdůležitější verzí příběhu, tou, kterou mi Rabia řekla jako první. Aber fangen wir mit der wichtigsten Version der Geschichte an, derjenigen, die Rabia mir zuerst erzählt hat. 但是让我们先从故事中最重要的版本开始,也就是拉比亚最先告诉我的那个版本。 And that’s the one that was presented at trial. ||||||przedstawiony|| Und das ist derjenige, der bei der Verhandlung vorgelegt wurde. 这就是在审判时提出的证据。

The state’s case against Adnan went like this. |státu|||||| |government's|||||| |sprawa państwa|||||| Státův případ proti Adnanovi probíhal takto. Der Fall des Staates gegen Adnan lief so ab. 政府对阿德南的指控如下。 He and Hae had been going out since junior prom. |||||||||prom On a Hae spolu chodili od juniorské plesové sezóny. Er und Hae gingen seit dem Abschlussball aus. Ele e Hae estavam saindo desde o baile de formatura. 他和 Hae 从初中毕业舞会开始就一直在约会。 But Adnan wasn’t supposed to be dating at all. ||||||chodit|| Ale Adnan prý neměl vůbec s někým chodit. Aber Adnan sollte überhaupt nicht ausgehen. Mas Adnan não deveria estar namorando. 但阿德南根本就不应该约会。 Adnan was born in the US, but his parents are from Pakistan. 阿德南出生于美国,但他的父母来自巴基斯坦。 And they’re conservative Muslims-- no drinking, no smoking, no girls, all that. A jsou to konzervativní muslimové - žádné pití, žádné kouření, žádné dívky, to vše. Und sie sind konservative Muslime – kein Alkohol, kein Rauchen, keine Mädchen, all das. 他们是保守的穆斯林——不喝酒、不抽烟、不和女孩交往,等等。

Saad and Rabia’s parents are the same way. Rodiče Sáda a Rabii jsou na tom stejně. Die Eltern von Saad und Rabia sind genauso. 萨阿德和拉比亚的父母也是如此。 Their families are friends. Jejich rodiny jsou přátelé. 他们的家人是朋友。 But even though Adnan and Saad and their buddies were Muslims, they were also, shall we say, healthy American teenagers who were going to do what teenagers do, so long as they didn’t get caught. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||pokud||||chycení ||||||||friends|||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||kumple|||||||||||||||||||||||||| Ale i když byli Adnan a Saad a jejich kamarádi muslimové, byli také, řekněme, zdraví američtí teenageři, kteří dělali to, co teenageři dělají, pokud je na tom nikdo nezachytil. Aber obwohl Adnan und Saad und ihre Kumpel Muslime waren, waren sie auch, sagen wir, gesunde amerikanische Teenager, die tun würden, was Teenager tun, solange sie nicht erwischt wurden. 但尽管阿德南、萨阿德和他们的伙伴是穆斯林,但他们也是健康的美国青少年,只要不被抓住,他们就会做青少年该做的事。

So Adnan had to keep his relationship with Hae secret. Takže Adnan musel udržovat svůj vztah s Hae v tajnosti. Also musste Adnan seine Beziehung zu Hae geheim halten. Así que Adnan tuvo que mantener su relación con Hae en secreto. 因此 Adnan 必须对他和 Hae 的关系保持秘密。 The state used this against him in two ways. Stát to proti němu použil dvěma způsoby. Der Staat benutzte dies auf zweierlei Weise gegen ihn. El Estado lo utilizó en su contra de dos maneras. 政府利用这一点通过两种方式对付他。 First, they argued, he put everything on the line-- his family, his relationships at the mosque-- to run around with this girl. ||se hádali|||||||||||||mešita||běhat|||| Za prvé, tvrdili, že na všechno vsadil -- svou rodinu, své vztahy v mešitě -- aby se coural s touto dívkou. Erstens, argumentierten sie, habe er alles aufs Spiel gesetzt – seine Familie, seine Beziehungen in der Moschee –, um mit diesem Mädchen herumzulaufen. En primer lugar, argumentaron, puso todo en la línea - su familia, sus relaciones en la mezquita - para correr con esta chica. Primeiro, eles argumentaram, ele colocou tudo em risco - sua família, seus relacionamentos na mesquita - para sair com essa garota. 首先,他们争辩说,他为了和这个女孩鬼混,牺牲了自己的一切——他的家庭、他在清真寺的关系。 So that when she broke up with him eight months later, he was left with nothing, and he was outraged. |||||||||||||zůstal||||||rozhořčený |||||||||||||||||||empört |||||||||||||||||||angry and upset |||||||||||||||||||oburzony Takže když se s ním po osmi měsících rozešla, zůstal s ničím a byl rozhořčen. Als sie acht Monate später mit ihm Schluss machte, stand ihm nichts mehr zur Verfügung, und er war empört. De modo que, quando ela terminou com ele oito meses depois, ele ficou sem nada e ficou indignado. 所以,当她八个月后与他分手时,他一无所有,这让他非常愤怒。 He couldn’t take it, and he killed her. Nedokázal to snést a zabil ji. Er konnte es nicht ertragen und tötete sie. Ele não aguentou e a matou. 他无法忍受,杀了她。

And the second way they used it, as they said-- look at what a liar he is, how duplicitous. ||||||||||||||||||dvojaký ||||||||||||||||||doppelzüngig ||||||||||||||deceiver||||deceitful ||||||||||||||||||二重の ||||||||||||||||||dwulicowy Und die zweite Art, wie sie es benutzten, wie sie sagten – sehen Sie sich an, was für ein Lügner er ist, wie doppelzüngig. 而他们使用它的第二种方式,正如他们所说——看看他是一个多么大的骗子,多么的虚伪。 He plays the good Muslim son at home and at the mosque, but look what he was up to. |||||||||||mešita|||||byl|| Hraje dobrého muslimského syna doma a v mešitě, ale podívej se, co dělal.
