一起引起白宫关注的恶性刀杀案幸存者首次在电视上讲述了自己的经历。
The survivor of a notorious knife murder that got the attention of the White House has told his story on television for the first time.
2005年，布伦丹·德瓦恩（Brendan Devine）喉咙被割开，腹部遭受严重刺伤，案件涉及临时爱尔兰共和军（Provisional IRA）成员。
Brendan Devine's throat was slashed and he suffered a severe stab wound to the abdomen in a 2005 attack involving members of the Provisional IRA.
他的朋友罗伯特·麦卡特尼（Robert McCartney）遇害。事发后，麦卡特尼的姐妹们和未婚妻发起伸张正义运动，赢得了美国总统乔治·W·布什（George W Bush）和欧洲议会的支持。
His friend Robert McCartney was killed. In the fallout McCartney's sisters and fiancée mounted a campaign for justice that won support from US President George W Bush and the European Parliament.
但该案至今未破——在BBC新纪录片系列中，德瓦恩讲述了他对袭击经过的愧疚，以及对未能缉拿凶手的自责。
But the crime remains unsolved – and in a new BBC documentary series Devine tells of his guilt over the way the attack unfolded, and for the failure to catch the killers.
他说：“我不为事情本身的发生感到愧疚，但我担心我的多嘴可能激化了局势，导致伯特（Bert，麦卡特尼的昵称）丧生。”
"I don't feel guilty for the actual happening but I do worry that my big mouth could have inflamed the situation, and got Bert killed," he said.
“太可怕了。不得不背负这个念头活下去，想着自己可能是导致挚友死亡的原因。“这让我痛不欲生。”
"It's terrible. To have to live with that and to think that you could be a reason for the death of your mate.
2005年1月31日，两人在离开马吉尼斯酒吧（Magennis's bar）后，在贝尔法斯特市中心市场街（Market Street）附近遭刺杀。
"That kills me." The two men were stabbed near Market Street in Belfast city centre, after leaving Magennis's bar on 31 January 2005.
一名曾参与侦办此案的前警探在纪录片《贝尔法斯特谋杀案：姐妹伸张正义》（Murder in Belfast: Sisters Seeking Justice）中表示，33岁的罗伯特·麦卡特尼“清白无辜，再无辜不过了”。
A former detective who worked on the case tells the documentary Murder in Belfast: Sisters Seeking Justice that 33-year-old Robert McCartney was "as innocent as they come".
德瓦恩在酒吧内因一起关于所谓粗鲁手势的争吵，遭人用瓶子殴打并割喉。尽管当时酒吧内多达70人，却无证人站出来指认凶手。
Devine had been attacked with bottles and had his throat cut inside the bar, after an argument about an alleged rude gesture. Despite as many as 70 people being in the pub at the time, no witnesses came forward to identify the attackers.
酒吧监控录像被拿走并销毁，部分鉴证证据疑似在酒吧用漂白水清洗时被抹除。
Pub CCTV was taken and destroyed and some forensic evidence appears to have been wiped away when the bar was cleaned with bleach.
爱尔兰共和军最初否认涉案，但后来发表声明称其三名成员参与其中，其中包括两名“高阶志愿者”。声明称已将其开除。这起谋杀案发生在北爱尔兰和平进程的关键时刻。
The IRA initially denied involvement, but later issued a statement which said three of its members were involved, including two "high-ranking volunteers". It said it had expelled them. The murder came at a crucial time in the peace process in Northern Ireland.
爱尔兰共和军当时正在遵守停火协议，但被指控实施了一系列备受瞩目的抢劫案，其中包括从贝尔法斯特北爱尔兰银行窃取2650万英镑。麦卡特尼的家人发起了一场运动，要求将袭击者绳之以法。
The IRA was observing a ceasefire but had been accused of carrying out a series of high profile robberies, including the theft of £26.5m from the Northern Bank in Belfast. McCartney's family launched a campaign to bring his attackers to justice.
这起谋杀案引起了远在美国的政治关注，姐妹俩受邀前往华盛顿特区会见了时任总统乔治·W·布什。
The murder drew political attention from as far as the United States, where the sisters were invited to meet President George W Bush in Washington DC.
《贝尔法斯特谋杀案：姐妹寻求正义》讲述了这起谋杀案和麦卡特尼家族的维权历程——并披露了德文认为他们之所以被刺，是因为他在酒吧外叫出了爱尔兰共和军领导人杰拉德·“乔克”·戴维森的名字。
Murder in Belfast: Sisters Seeking Justice tells the story of the murder and the McCartney family's campaign – revealing that Devine believes they were stabbed because he named IRA leader Gerard "Jock" Davison outside the bar. "I says 'who's Jock Davison?
“我当时说：‘乔克·戴维森是谁？是他弄伤我喉咙的吗？’我一说出这个名字，四五个家伙就冲到我面前，开始大喊：‘你完了，你完了，你完了’。”
Did he do this to my throat?' And as soon as I said that name, four or five guys were in front of me, and they started shouting, `you're getting it, you're getting it, you're getting it'.
“我确实为在酒吧外乱说话、对乔克·戴维森大喊大叫、火上浇油而感到愧疚，而且一直挣扎于这种愧疚之中，”他说。
"I do and have struggled with guilt of slabbering outside the bar, of shouting at Jock Davison, of inflaming an already hostile situation," he said.
德文表示，围绕谋杀案的恐吓和谣言导致了巨大的压力，影响了他当时的心理健康。“我收到了大量死亡威胁，要应付这一切有点令人生畏。
Devine says intimidation and rumours surrounding the murder led to intense stress which impacted his mental health at the time. "I had loads of death threats and it was a wee bit daunting trying to juggle all this.
“你听到这些事，甚至连高层共和派人士都跟我说，差不多意思是：‘你要是敢张嘴说什么，你就有麻烦了。’”据报道，戴维森是贝尔法斯特爱尔兰共和军最高层人物之一，于2015年在贝尔法斯特的一起枪击案中被杀。
"So you're hearing all this, and then even top republicans were saying to me, 'you open your mouth about anything', more or less, 'you're in trouble'." Davison, who was reported to be one of the most senior IRA figures in Belfast was killed in a gun attack in Belfast in 2015.
德文在纪录片系列中还讲述了自己如何接受爱尔兰共和军的质询，他们在警方调查之外另行进行了一项秘密调查。
Devine also tells the documentary series about being questioned by the IRA as they conducted a secret investigation parallel to the police inquiry.
他后来在2008年三名男子因涉嫌参与袭击而受审的庭审中作证。三人均被判无罪释放。德文在庭上称，刺杀案发生后他曾四次会见爱尔兰共和军成员。他说，只有在获得爱尔兰共和军许可后，他才全力配合警方调查。
He later testified at the 2008 trial of three men who faced charges in connection with the attack. All three were acquitted. Devine told the trial that he met the IRA four times after the stabbings. He said he only cooperated fully with the police after being given clearance by the IRA to do so.
在证人席上，他还改变了对当晚发生事情的描述，但否认这样做是为了与另一名证人的说法“吻合”。
In the witness box he also changed his account of what had happened on the night, but denied claims that was to "dovetail" with the account of another witness.
在纪录片中——该片由BBC北爱尔兰分台与爱尔兰广播电视台（RTÉ）联合制作——德文表示，他后悔自己的证词在查明袭击者方面没有提供更多帮助。“我要为无法伸张正义负责吗？”他问道。“面对这一切乱七八糟的事，我怎么可能得到结果？“所有的一切。那只是一段充满压力的时期。”
In the documentary - made by BBC Northern Ireland in association with RTÉ - Devine says he regrets that his evidence was not more helpful in establishing who carried out the attack. "Am I going to be held responsible for not getting justice?" he asked. "How am I going to get a result with the whole shenanigans of it? "The whole lot. It was just a stressful time."
