一名母亲与她的四个孩子一起在汽油弹袭击中遇害，事发前她曾受到保护部门警员的探访，这一情况在听证会上被提及。
A mother who was murdered along with four of her children in a petrol-bomb attack was visited by police from a safeguarding unit before the fatal incident, an inquest heard.
米歇尔·皮尔森（Michelle Pearson），37岁，在她的女儿黛米（Demi，15岁）、儿子布兰登（Brandon，8岁）、女儿拉西（Lacie，7岁）和女儿莉亚（Lia，3岁）于2017年12月11日在索尔福德沃克登杰克逊街（Jackson Street, Walkden, Salford）的家中遭汽油弹袭击身亡后，又过了20个月才去世。
Michelle Pearson, 37, died 20 months after Demi, 15, Brandon, eight, Lacie, seven, and Lia, three, were killed in the attack on their home in Jackson Street, Walkden, Salford, on 11 December 2017.
袭击是由26岁的扎克·博兰德（Zak Bolland）实施的，他一直在与皮尔森女士的一个儿子发生升级的 feud（纠纷）期间盯上了该住宅。
The attack was carried out by Zak Bolland, 26, who had been targeting the home during an escalating feud with one of Ms Pearson's sons.
就在两周前，即11月26日，博兰德曾用锤子砸碎她家的前窗，她因此报警。
Two weeks before, on 26 November, she had called police after Bolland had used a hammer to smash her front windows.
两天后，即11月28日，大曼彻斯特警察局（GMP）索尔福德分局保护部门（Safeguarding Unit）的两名警员探访了皮尔森女士的住所，这一情况在博尔顿验尸官法庭（Bolton Coroner's Court）上被透露。
Two days later, two officers from the Safeguarding Unit of Greater Manchester Police (GMP) in Salford visited Ms Pearson's home, Bolton Coroner's Court heard.
来自大曼彻斯特警察局索尔福德分局保护部门的侦探警司艾莉森·巴伯（Detective Sergeant Alison Barber）在听取该家族死亡案件的证词时表示，该部门的工作主要聚焦于评估犯罪帮派成员及其家庭面临的伤害风险和生命威胁。
Detective Sergeant Alison Barber, from the safeguarding unit of Greater Manchester Police in Salford, told the inquest into the family's deaths that the unit's job was mainly focused on looking at the risk of harm and threats to the life of members of crime gangs and their families.
验尸官法庭听取了她的证词：她所在的部门曾通过住房服务提供者获悉皮尔森家族的情况，随后警员前往住所收集情报并评估是否需要采取任何保护措施。
The coroner's court heard her unit was notified about the Pearson family from housing service providers and officers visited to gather any intelligence and look at any safeguarding measures.
但巴伯表示，在此次探访之后，她的部门对该家族再无进一步的介入。
But Ms Barber said after the visit her unit had no further involvement with the family.
她说，警员们在探访时被告知，博兰德的骚扰行为源于皮尔森女士的儿子与博兰德因一辆车受损而发生的争议。
She said the officers were told by the family that the harassment from Bolland was due to Ms Pearson's son being in a dispute with Bolland over damage to a car.
她还说，警方掌握的情报中没有任何信息表明博兰德或皮尔森家族的任何成员与索尔福德正在进行的帮派冲突有关联——该冲突涉及“A Team”，这是该市一个臭名昭著、暴力的有组织犯罪集团。
And she said the police had no intelligence linking Bolland or anyone in the Pearson family to ongoing gang warfare in Salford involving the A Team - a notorious, violent organised crime group in the city.
法庭还听取了证词：目前并没有一个独立的保护部门专门处理那些可能需要保护但与有组织犯罪帮派无关联的其他人员。
The court heard there was no 'standalone' safeguarding unit dealing with other people who may need safeguarding, but who are not linked to organised crime gangs.
费奥娜·巴顿代表大曼彻斯特警察局（GMP）向该警官指出，她的部门并不是GMP保护工作的“开始和结束”，而这是一个“多层次”的过程。
Fiona Barton, representing GMP, put it to the officer that her unit was not the "start and the end" of safeguarding for GMP, which is a "multi-layered" process.
巴伯女士同意保护工作始于第一个响应事件的警官，并补充道：“保护是每个人的责任。”巴顿女士询问皮尔森一家是否符合发出生命威胁警报的标准。
Ms Barber agreed that safeguarding starts with the first officer responding to an incident, adding: "Safeguarding is everyone's business." Ms Barton asked if the Pearson family met the criteria to be issued with a threat to life warning.
巴伯女士回复：“不，GMP掌握的信息中没有任何内容使我们有义务通知米歇尔存在重大风险。”此前，听证会听取了博兰德此前曾威胁要用燃烧弹袭击皮尔森女士住宅的证词，就在致命纵火案发生前几小时，他又一次袭击了她的财产，宣称他将“烧掉房子”。
Ms Barber replied: "No, there was no information GMP held that gave us an obligation to notify Michelle there was a significant risk to her." Earlier, the inquest heard Bolland had previously threatened to firebomb Ms Pearson's home and just hours before the fatal arson, had attacked her property again, claiming he would "do the house".
警方接到报警后到场，录取了口供后离开，但并未试图逮捕博兰德，而博兰德住在杰克逊街以西350码处。警方离开约90分钟后，博兰德返回，用汽油弹袭击了该财产。
Police were called, took a statement and left, but did not try to arrest Bolland, who lived 350 yards away from Jackson Street. He returned around 90 minutes after they left to petrol bomb the property.
博兰德此前曾因砸碎皮尔森女士的窗户而被警方询问，但未采取进一步行动。
Bolland had already been questioned by police for smashing Ms Pearson's windows but no further action was taken.
而在致命袭击发生前两天，皮尔森女士曾报警称博兰德负责将她的轮式垃圾桶点燃，并在她家墙上喷漆写“Grass”。警方再次接到报警，但当天犯罪报告被立案后又当天结案。更多来自天空新闻：天气警报生效时，预计将有最高每小时70英里的狂风。2018年，博兰德及其同伙大卫·沃拉尔（28岁）均被判处四项无期徒刑，并被告知他们分别需要至少服刑40年和37年，罪名为使用汽油弹进行爆炸袭击。听证会仍在继续。
And two days before the fatal attack Ms Pearson had called police naming Bolland as responsible for setting her wheelie bin on fire and spray-painting Grass on her home. Police were called again but the crime report was open and closed the same day. More from Sky News: Winds up to 70mph predicted as weather warning comes into force In 2018, Bolland and accomplice David Worrall, 28, were both given four life sentences and told they would serve a minimum of 40 and 37 years respectively for the petrol bombing. The inquest continues.
