30年冤狱死囚无罪释放 如何适应现代社会

I'm Fredrick Dolf with highlights from across BBC World Service news today.

我是弗雷德里克·道尔夫,通过BBC“全球服务”栏目,为您带来今天的新闻要点。
And next to the United States where when Glenn Ford was sent to prison for a murder he did not commit, Ronald Regan was president. Last month, Mr. Ford walked out of Louisiana' s notorious Angola prison a freeman exonerated after 30 years on death roll. He may eventual receive substantial compensations for wrongful imprisonment. But on leaving jail at the age of 64, Glenn Ford was confronted with a challenge of having to build a new life with just the clothes he was wearing and a debit card with a balance of 20 dollars on it. He has since found somewhere to live and created an online list, appealing for some basic necessities. With one of his lawyers Aron Nova standing beside him, Glenn Ford has been speaking to Julian Marshal. First, what' s life been like since being released?
下面是关于美国的一条新闻。里根担任总统时,美国人格伦?福特因谋杀罪入狱,他始终没有认罪。然而就在上个月,福特在当了30年的死刑犯后,被无罪释放,走出了路易斯安那州臭名昭著的安哥拉监狱。因为是冤狱,所以他最终可获得实质性的补偿。但是,现年64岁的格伦?福特要面临重建生活的挑战,穿着出狱时的衣服,拿着余额仅20美元的借记卡,重新面对生活。出狱后,他找到了住处,列了一个网上清单,呼吁政府提供一些生活必需品。格伦·福特在他的一位律师阿伦?诺瓦的陪同下,接受了朱利安?马歇尔的采访。首先,他自出狱后,生活状态是怎样的?

Now my stomach is kind of messed up from there from eating prison food for so long. So what kind of food are you able to eat now?

监狱里的东西吃了太长时间,我的胃已经差不多吃坏了。那你现在能吃什么?
Mainly fruits and medicine juices. Anything else cause me to be nauseated.
主要是水果和药汁。其他东西会导致我呕吐。
So that's your body adapting to the outside world. But how are you kind of coping with what have been enormous sort of changes in the world since you were originally sent to prison?
这是你的身体对外界适应的情况。但是,从你入狱到现在,可以说世界发生了翻天覆地的变化,那么,你是怎么应对这些变化的呢?
Internet, cellular phones, computer' s period is baffling to me.
网络、手机,计算机时代让我感到很困惑。
What about the way people react to you?
大家对你态度怎样?
Just been amazing to me. There are so many people of different nationalities recognize me and show concern, compassion.
大家对我很好,许多来自不同国家的的人认出我后,都表现出了关心和同情。
So you have been getting a lot of sympathy, but have you been getting a lot of material support, as well?
你得到了大家的同情心,但是有没有得到很多物质上的帮助呢?
Yes, from the Internet wish list. I get clothes. I get a telephone.
是的,都是在线愿望清单上的。有衣服,还有手机。
Cuz I mean when you were released from prison as I understand, that you only had what 20 dollars and 4 cents. Is that right?
据说你出狱时身上只有20美元零4分,是这样的吗?
Yeah, that's correct.
是的,没错。
And have you got any more money since then? No.
从那以后你有没有再收到钱?没有。
Aron Nova, though, it is possible, isn't it that over a period of time that Glenn might get more money?
我想问一下阿伦?诺瓦,有没有可能经过一段时间,格伦会得到更多的钱?
It's possible. I may say it can be a long and difficult process. There is a compensation statute in the Louisiana, but that can take many years to accomplish.
这是有可能的,但我不得不说,它将是一个长期艰苦的过程。路易斯安那州有一条补偿法规,但可能需要好多年才能获得这个补偿。
I mean, what is the basic compensation that Glenn would be entitled to?
我的意思是,格伦能够获得的基本补偿是多少?
The maximum compensation that he can possibly receive is 330,000 dollars.
他最多可以获得33万美元。
