导读:一男子竟以做父亲要很大的责任为由,制造车祸谋杀两岁亲儿子。
A Colorado man is behind bars and accused of the attempted murder of his 2-year-old son, who cops say he tried to kill by intentionally crashing his car.
一名科罗拉多男子在酒吧,被指控意图在车祸事故中谋害两岁的亲生儿子。
Police said 29-year-old Nathan Weitzel placed his toddler son, Isaiah, into his car on August 21 after bucking his own seatbelt, but not the boy’s.
警方说8月21号,29岁的Nathan Weitzel把刚学走路的儿子Isaiah放在车上,只绑了自己的安全带,没有绑小男孩的安全带。
Weitzel then allegedly crashed the car into several other vehicles, WUSA reports.
据报道,Weitzel随后撞上了几辆汽车。
When questioned, police said Weitzel told investigators, "I was trying to kill my son."
警方说,Weitzel在盘问时告诉调查人员,“我想杀了我儿子。”
Isaiah suffered life-threatening injuries, loved ones say, including a ripped a muscle in his neck that’s left him in a neck brace and a head injury that required 20 to 30 stitches.
Isaiah受的伤有生命危险,亲人说,有一处脖子的肌肉撕裂,导致颈托和头部的伤需要缝20到30针。
Police say Weitzel admitted to using cocaine that day and that he told them "the reason he wanted to kill Isaiah was because being a father was a big responsibility and he did not think he was man enough to raise a child."
警方说Weitzel承认事发当天服用了可卡因,并称“之所以想杀了儿子,是因为做父亲需要很大的责任,他觉得自己不够男人,不能养小孩。”
Isaiah is also in a plaster cast from the waist down.
Isaiah腰部以下的地方都打了石膏绷带。
He’s doing better every day thank god. He’s my little soldier, Isaiah’s mom, Nancy Lopez, told InsideEdition.com.
Isaiah的妈妈Nancy Lopez告诉记者:“上帝保佑!他的情况一天天好转,他是我的小士兵。”
Lopez called Weitzel’s actions "horrifying" and struggled to understand what could motivate such an act.
Lopez说丈夫的行为很恐怖,很难理解是什么让他做出这样的事情来。
I’m extremely broken by all of this, she said. "I still don’t understand how someone could be so cruel to a beautiful little human they created by choice. Isaiah was planned and he wanted to be a father at the time. [I don’t know] why he would try to take him away. I will never understand... But I hope he stays in jail for the rest of his life."
“我已经被他的所作所为伤透了,”她说。“我不能理解一个人怎么会残忍到去伤害他们可爱的亲生儿子。备孕Isaiah的时候,丈夫也曾想做一名好父亲。我不知道他为什么想杀了儿子。我永远都理解不了。但是我希望他余生都在监狱里度过。”
At the end of this dark tunnel, however, Lopez said there’s one all-important light.
在这黑暗的隧道里,Lopez说她找到了最重要的希望之光。
I’m just glad that my little boy is alive and is going to recover from this tragic incident. It never needed to happen.
“我很开心我的儿子还活着,正从车祸中慢慢恢复。这种事情不会再发生了。”
In addition to attempted first-degree murder, Weitzel is charged with child abuse, assault, criminal mischief, possession of a controlled substance and vehicular assault.
除了涉嫌一级谋杀,Weitzel被指控虐待儿童,破坏财物,私存受控制药品,汽车伤人等罪名。
