迈克尔·昆泽尔曼 华盛顿 —— 联邦法官周四将一名被控企图在白宫记者协会晚宴上刺杀唐纳德·特朗普总统的男子的审判日期定于2027年9月,该晚宴于今年早些时候举行。
MICHAEL KUNZELMAN WASHINGTON — A federal judge on Thursday set a September 2027 trial date for a man charged with attempting to kill President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner earlier this year.
科尔·托马斯·艾伦的审判定于9月7日在华盛顿特区开始陪审团甄选,预计将持续约三到四周。检方曾建议于2027年5月开庭,但美国地区法官特雷弗·麦克法登在艾伦的一名律师请求更多准备时间后,将日期推迟。
Cole Tomas Allen’s trial is scheduled to start with jury selection on Sept. 7 in Washington, D.C., and is expected to last approximately three to four weeks. Prosecutors had recommended starting the trial in May 2027, but U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden set the later date after one of Allen’s attorneys asked for more time to prepare.
来自加利福尼亚州托伦斯的艾伦被控在2026年4月25日于华盛顿希尔顿酒店举行的晚宴上,持枪和刀具冲入会场,并向一名试图阻止袭击的特勤局警官开枪。当局称,该警官被击中一次,子弹打在防弹背心上;警官还击五枪但未击中任何人。艾伦受伤,但非因枪击。
Allen, of Torrance, California, is accused of storming the WHCA dinner while armed with guns and knives and firing a shotgun at a Secret Service officer who tried to stop the April 25, 2026, attack at the Washington Hilton hotel. The officer, who was struck once in a bullet-resistant vest, fired five shots but didn’t hit anybody, authorities said. Allen was injured but not from gunfire.
这次袭击导致首都最重要的年度活动之一提前结束。唐纳德·特朗普总统三个月后在重新安排的晚宴上发表了讲话。
The attack led to an early end to one of the highest-profile annual events in the nation’s capital. President Donald Trump returned to speak at the rescheduled dinner three months later.
当局称,艾伦在袭击前发送给亲属的文字材料中,抨击特朗普政府政策,并自称“友好的联邦刺客”。
writings that he sent to relatives before the attack, Allen railed against Trump administration policies and referred to himself as a “Friendly Federal Assassin,” authorities said.
艾伦面临企图刺杀指控,最高可判处终身监禁。他还被控袭击联邦执法人员并使用致命武器,以及两项额外的枪支罪名。
Allen faces an attempted assassination charge that carries a maximum possible sentence of life in prison. He also is charged with assaulting a federal officer with a deadly weapon and two additional firearms counts.
