基因·约翰逊（Gene Johnson），西雅图——这名居住在华盛顿州的居民因参与加拿大历史上最严重的校园枪击案之一而被指控犯有共谋罪，目前已被下令拘留，等待进一步审理。
GENE JOHNSON SEATTLE — A Washington state resident charged with conspiracy in one of the worst school shootings in Canada’s history has been ordered detained pending further hearings in the case.
梅洛迪·布莱恩特（Melody Bryant），又名詹姆斯·科迪·布莱恩特（James Cody Bryant），来自华盛顿州的贝灵厄姆（Bellingham），本月被指控在外国密谋谋杀他人。调查显示，她曾协助杰西·范·鲁特塞拉尔（Jesse Van Rootselaar）实施犯罪：范·鲁特塞拉尔于2月在坦布勒里奇（Tumbler Ridge）这个山区社区杀害了8人，另有27人受伤。
Melody Bryant, also known as James Cody Bryant, of Bellingham, Washington, was charged this month with conspiring to murder people in a foreign country. Investigators said she provided assistance to Jesse Van Rootselaar who killed eight people and wounded 27 in the mountain community of Tumbler Ridge in February.
根据本月提交给西雅图地方法院的刑事起诉书，梅洛迪·布莱恩特协助范·鲁特塞拉尔制定了作案计划，同意传播枪击事件的实时直播内容，还提供了资金，并提供了如何删除网络信息以掩盖阴谋的建议。
Bryant declined to report Van Rootselaar’s plans, agreed to distribute a livestream of the attack, provided money and shared advice on how to delete online messages to keep the plot a secret, according to a criminal complaint filed this month in U.S. District Court in Seattle.
在周二的拘留听证会上，地方法官玛丽·爱丽丝·泰勒（Mary Alice Theiler）表示，她认为即使释放布莱恩特，也没有任何措施（如限制其使用互联网）能够确保社区的安全。
At a detention hearing Tuesday, Magistrate Judge Mary Alice Theiler said she did not believe there were any conditions — such as internet restrictions — that could ensure the safety of the community if Bryant were to be released pending trial.
布莱恩特尚未对指控作出回应；她的公设辩护人格雷格·墨菲（Greg Murphy）在法庭上表示，目前尚未收到评估政府指控所需的证据。
Bryant has not entered a plea, and her public defender, Greg Murphy, said in court he has not yet been provided with evidence needed to evaluate the government’s case against her.
墨菲主张在审判前释放她，并指出联邦特工在枪击案发生仅几天后就对她进行了询问，但在随后的七个月里却允许她继续自由活动。他还指出：“即使在10月2日提出指控后，政府也过了四天才将她拘留。”
Murphy argued for her release pending trial, noting that federal agents first interviewed Bryant just days after the attack and allowed her to remain free in the ensuing seven months. Even after filing the complaint against her on Oct. 2, the government waited for four days to take her into custody, Murphy noted.
墨菲强调：“自政府首次询问她以来，过去七个月里没有任何证据表明她会对社区构成新的威胁。”
“There is no evidence that suggests any new danger to the communty in the last seven months since the government first interviewed her,” Murphy said.
美国助理检察官托德·格林伯格（Todd Greenberg）向法官表示，根据相关法律，该刑事指控本身就意味着布莱恩特必须被拘留。
Assistant U.S. Attorney Todd Greenberg told the judge that the criminal charge carried a presumption that Bryant would be detained.
格林伯格表示：“被告在数月时间里每天都与一名策划不列颠哥伦比亚省大规模谋杀事件的人保持联系，而布莱恩特却选择袖手旁观、不采取任何行动。”当局称，范·鲁特塞拉尔（Van Rootselaar）先在家中杀害了自己的母亲和继兄，随后袭击了位于坦布勒里奇（Tumbler Ridge）的一所中学，导致5名12至13岁的学生以及一名教育助理死亡。后来，范·鲁特塞拉尔被发现死于自己造成的枪伤。
“The defendant was, over the course of months, in daily communication with someone who was planning a mass murder event in British Columbia,” Greenberg said. “Bryant chose not to intervene.”Authorities say Van Rootselaar killed her mother and stepbrother at home before attacking a nearby secondary school in Tumbler Ridge, killing five children ages 12 and 13 as well as an educational assistant.
坦布勒里奇位于加拿大落基山脉地区，距离不列颠哥伦比亚省的温哥华市以东北方向超过1000公里（600英里），靠近该省与阿尔伯塔省的边界。根据省政府网站的信息，坦布勒里奇中学共有175名学生，他们分别就读于7至12年级。
Van Rootselaar was later found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. Tumbler Ridge in the Canadian Rockies is more than 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) northeast of Vancouver, British Columbia, near the provincial border with Alberta The provincial government website lists Tumbler Ridge Secondary School as having 175 students from Grades 7 to 12.
