By Joy First由快樂第一

Madison, WI — I was involved in a jury trial in Washington, DC October 20-24 for an action in the Senate gallery on March 12.威斯康辛州麥迪遜-我參與了陪審團審判在華盛頓十月二十日至2 4號的行動在參議院的畫廊3月1 2日。 In summary, five individuals, including me, were acquitted, and five people were found guilty.總之，五個人，包括我在內，被無罪釋放，並有5人被判有罪。 But what made this trial so unique was that the government attempted to hide illegally obtained and falsified evidence from us.但是，這次審判作出如此獨特的是，政府試圖隱瞞非法獲取和偽造證據，我們。

On March 12, 2008 at about 1:00 pm, ten activists went to the Senate gallery to again plead with our Senators to stop funding the war in Iraq. 3月12日， 2008年大約下午1:00 ， 10個活動去了美國參議院畫廊再次懇求我們的參議員停止資助在伊拉克的戰爭。 This action was organized by the National Campaign for Nonviolent Resistance (這一行動是由全國運動的非暴力抵抗運動（ www.iraqpledge.org ) The activists were Maria Allwine, Linda LeTendre, Max Obuszewski, Manijeh Saba, Tim Chadwick, Ellen Barfield, Judith Kelly, Eve Tetaz, Art Landis, and myself. ）的活躍分子瑪麗亞Allwine ，琳達LeTendre ，馬克斯Obuszewski ， Manijeh沙巴，添查德威克，艾倫巴菲爾德，朱凱利，除夕Tetaz ，藝術蘭迪斯，和我本人。 We each wore a t-shirt that said, “WE WILL NOT BE SILENT” covered by a jacket or shirt and carried a small 12 inch square of cheesecloth.我們每個人穿一件T卹說： “我們將不會保持沉默”所涵蓋的夾克或襯衫和一小開展12個平方英寸的棉布。 One-by-one, eight of us stood opened our jacket, put the cloth on head and proclaimed, “I am a ghost of the Iraq war.逐一，八個為我們打開我們的外套，把布頭，並宣布， “我是一個鬼的伊拉克戰爭。 Innocent people have suffered and died as a result of the war.無辜的人民遭受痛苦和死亡，戰爭的結果。 Stop funding the war.” We were immediately arrested, but the Senators did hear our message.停止戰爭撥款。 “我們立刻遭到警方逮捕，但參議院沒有聽到我們的消息。 Judith and Art were not able to speak.朱迪和藝術無法說話。 They were arrested, for no cause, as soon as they stood up because the police believed they were part of our group.他們被逮捕，因為沒有任何理由，只要他們站起來，因為警方相信他們是我們的小組。 We were taken to jail and processed.我們被帶到監獄和處理。 Eight of the activists were held until about 1:00 am.八國集團的活動進行了大約到上午01點00分。 Four of us were held for more than 30 hours, with no food or water and with painful shackles around our ankles for the last 13 hours.四，我們舉行了超過30個小時，沒有食物和水以及與痛苦的束縛我們的踝關節周圍的最後13個小時。 All ten of us were arraigned at around 7:30 pm on March 13 and we were all released at that time.所有10名被傳訊，我們在晚上7:30左右在3月13日，我們都公佈在這個時間。

We were charged with disrupting Congress which carries a maximum of 6 months in jail.我們被指控犯有破壞國會的最高的6個月的監禁。 When there is the possibility of 6 months in jail, the court is required to give us a jury trial.當有可能在6個月監禁，要求法院給我們一個陪審團審判。 We had a trial date set for September 29 with Judge Robert Morin.我們的審判日期定於9月29日與法官羅伯特莫林。 Judge Morin has a reputation for being fair and a champion of human rights.法官莫林了聲譽，公正和人權衛士。 When I arrived in DC for the September 29 trial I was told that it was postponed because of scheduling problems on the part of the judge and the prosecuting attorney.當我來到華盛頓的審判9月29日我被告知，這是推遲，因為調度問題的一部分，法官和檢察官。 So I made an unnecessary trip to Washington, DC.所以，我做了不必要的訪問，華盛頓特區。 I believe that this type of thing is one of the many things the government does to try to make it difficult and dissuade us from continuing our dissent.我認為，這種類型的事情之一，許多事情政府不設法使困難和阻止我們繼續持不同政見者。

The trial was rescheduled for October 20.審判改期到10月20日。 So, again, I flew to DC.所以，我又一次前往華盛頓。 As usual, nine out of the ten defendants made thedecision to defend ourselves, pro se, with an attorney advisor working with us.像往常一樣，九十名被告作出thedecision保衛自己，親本身，與律師顧問與我們合作。 We would divide up the roles of the trial among ourselves.我們將鴻溝的角色之間的審判自己。 By going pro se, we can say more about what we were doing and why than an attorney is allowed to say in the courtroom.進入職業本身，我們可以說更多的了解我們在做，為什麼比是一名律師說，允許在法庭上。 Ann Wilcox was helping us as our attorney advisor, and Jack Barringer helped us all, though he was there primarily as attorney for Eve Tetaz.安考克斯是幫助我們作為我們的律師顧問，和傑克巴林杰幫助我們大家，雖然他在那裡主要是因為律師除夕Tetaz 。 We had been corresponding by email to plan for the trial, and on the evening before the trial was to begin, October 19, we came together to continue our planning – a process that continued throughout the five days of the trial.我們一直在通過電子郵件的相應計劃的審判，並於晚上在審判開始， 10月19日，我們走到一起，繼續我們的計劃-這個過程持續了5天的審判。

Our defense was that we did not have the intention (having intent is a part of the statute that we were being charged with) of disrupting Congress.我們的防守是我們沒有的意圖（意圖是有一部分的章程，我們被指控）擾亂大會。 We went there to practice our First Amendment right to petition our government for a redress of grievances and to fulfill our Nuremberg obligation of speaking out when our government is acting illegally.我們去實踐我們的第一修正案的權利，我們的政府請願的申訴，並履行我們的義務紐倫堡發言時，我們的政府是非法行為。

On Monday morning, October 20, we took care of some pre-trial matters with Judge Morin and Mr. Warren, the government prosecutor.星期一早上， 10月20日，我們採取了一些照顧預審事項與法官莫華倫先生，政府檢察官。 A few months before the trial began, we received “discovery” from the government.幾個月前的審判開始，我們收到了“發現”的政府。 Discovery is information that the government has and will be using as evidence during the trial.發現信息，政府將利用作為證據在審判期間。 They are required by law to provide this to the defendants before the trial.他們所要求的法律規定，這對被告在審判之前。 It can include police reports, statements from witnesses, videos of the action etc. In the discovery packet was a report from Capitol Police officers stating that they knew we were coming to the Senate gallery on March 12.它可以包括警察報告，陳述，證人，視頻等行動，發現包是一個由國會報告警務人員指出，他們知道我們是來畫廊參議院3月12日。 For several weeks we had been trying to get additional discovery so we could find out how the police knew we were coming, but the government denied they had any more information for us.幾個星期我們一直在試圖得到更多的發現，使我們可以找出警察知道我們是未來，但政府一直否認他們有任何更多信息，對我們來說。 So on Monday morning, Max again filed a motion asking for additional discovery so we could understand how the Capitol Police received the information that we were coming.因此，星期一上午，馬克斯再次提出一項動議，要求提供額外的發現，使我們能夠了解如何國會警方接獲的資料，我們來了。

There has been a recent national news story revolving around the Maryland State Police (MSP) spy scandal, with the MSP illegally spying on peace, death penalty, and environmental groups.出現了近年來全國新聞故事圍繞馬里蘭州州警察（中型項目）間諜醜聞，而非法從事間諜活動的MSP的和平，判處死刑，環保團體。 A few of the defendants in this trial have also been involved in this incident, being illegally spied on by the MSP.一些被告在這次審判也參與了這一事件，被非法刺探的中型項目。 Because of this, we were suspicious about how the Capitol Police were expecting us in the gallery on March 12.正因為如此，我們可疑如何國會警方希望我們在走廊3月12日。

As we filed motions for additional discovery weeks before the trial, the government denied they had any more information.正如我們提出動議的額外星期前發現的審判中，政府一直否認他們有任何更多信息。 When we filed the motion again on Monday morning, the government again denied that they had any additional discovery to give us.當我們提出的議案再次星期一上午，政府再次否認他們有任何額外的發現給我們。

We waited in the halls of the courthouse most of Monday for a murder trial to conclude, but at 3:00 pm we began jury selection for our trial.我們一直在等待在大廳裡的大多數法院星期一的一宗謀殺案的審判結束，但在下午3點，我們開始挑選陪審團對我們的審判。 After questioning the jury on everything from whether they knew any of the parties involved in the trial to whether they felt so strongly about the war that they could not render a fair verdict, we had a jury selected by 5:00 pm.經警方查問後陪審團就從他們是否知道任何有關各方在審判中他們是否感覺到如此強烈的戰爭，他們無法提供一個公平的判決，我們已選定陪審團由下午5:00 。 Each side was able to strike three people from the pool with no questions asked.每一方都能夠罷工3人從泳池沒有問題。 We were fairly satisfied with the final jury.我們相當滿意，最後陪審團。

We were set to begin the trial on Tuesday morning.我們即將開始的審判今天上午。 Before the jury was brought in, Mr. Warren, the prosecutor, said that he had just received a 26-page intelligence report from the Capitol Police for March 12, the day of our arrest.之前，陪審團被帶到先生，華倫，檢察官說，他剛剛收到一份26頁的情報報告，國會警察的3月12日，這一天我們被逮捕。 He said that he had not had time to look at it, but that he was told that there were three pages relevant to our case that he could give us.他說，他沒有時間看，但他被告知，有三個網頁有關我們的情況，他可以給我們。 He said the rest of document contained sensitive security information and we could not have access to it.他說，其餘的文件載有敏感的安全信息，我們無法獲得它。 He provided us with the table of contents for the document and two pages with information on possible protesters in the Capitol area that was completely irrelevant to our action.他為我們提供了目錄的文件和兩頁的資料可能抗議者在國會山地區，是完全不相干的，以我們的行動。

The trial then proceeded with the government’s case after the opening statements by both sides.審判接著與政府的案件後，致開幕詞雙方。 Linda LeTendre gave a powerful opening statement on behalf of the defendants, asking the jury how far we would allow the door of democracy to open.琳達LeTendre了一個強大的開幕詞中代表被告，要求陪審團多遠，我們將允許民主的大門打開。 It was surprising that Mr. Warren raised no objections to any part of her moving statement.令人驚訝的是，沃倫先生沒有提出反對意見的任何部分，她感人的發言。

The prosecutor called four witnesses.檢察官傳喚了4名證人。 The first two witnesses were gatekeepers in the Senate gallery.首先兩名證人看門人在參議院的畫廊。 The first witness, in particular, was not a credible witness at all.第一個證人，特別是不是可信的證人在所有。 He didn’t clearly answer questions, went off on tangents for the prosecutor and during the cross exam by the defense, and was extremely nervous on the stand.他沒有明確回答問題，到了上切線的檢察官和跨期間考試的國防，是非常緊張的立場。 He talked about how dangerous he thought we were.他談到多麼危險，他以為我們是。

The third witness was a Capitol Police officer who was able to identify two of the defendants, Eve and Tim.第三證人是一個國會警察誰能夠確定兩名被告，除夕和蒂姆。 He was the arresting officer of Eve and Tim and he was able to describe what they were doing in the gallery on March 12.他被逮捕人員的除夕和蒂姆和他能夠說明他們正在做的事情在走廊3月12日。 The next witness was also a Capitol Police officer and the arresting officer of the other 8 defendants.下一個證人也有國會警務人員和逮捕人員的其他8被告。 He was not at all a credible witness.他不是在所有可信的證人。 He claimed he remembered arresting all of us and remembered exactly what we were doing, but he did not tell the truth on the stand.他聲稱，他記得逮捕了我們所有人的記憶正是我們在做，但他沒有講真話的立場。 It would have been physically impossible for one man to arrest each one of us as he stated.這本來是不可能的一名男子逮捕我們每個人作為他說。 He said all of us stood up and shouted, but two of the defendants, Judith and Art, stood up and begin taking out their gauze and were arrested before they even said anything.他說，我們所有人都站了起來，高喊，但兩名被告，朱迪和藝術，站了起來，並開始考慮他們的紗布和被逮捕之前，他們甚至說什麼。

After the four witnesses, the government rested its case and the jury was dismissed.在4名證人，政府休息的情況下和陪審團被駁回。 It was almost the end of the day and Max renewed the motion for additional discovery.這幾乎是一天結束時和馬克斯再次動議的額外發現。 In looking at the table of contents from the security report, Max thought there might be additional information in the report that would help us to understand how the Capitol Police knew we were coming.在看表的內容從安全報告，馬克斯認為有可能是其他信息的報告，將有助於我們了解國會警察知道我們來了。 Max asked for three specific pages from the report.馬克斯要求三個具體頁的報告。 Judge Morin said he would quickly look through the report and determine whether we should have access to any other pages.法官莫蘭表示，他將很快期待通過該報告，並確定我們是否應該獲得任何其他網頁。

Judge Morin decided that we should have two additional pages and when we saw the content of the pages we were stunned and called for a short break.法官莫蘭決定，我們應該有另外兩個網頁時，我們看到的網頁內容，我們非常震驚，並呼籲短暫休息。 What we realized is that a personal email that Max sent to a small group of people on the National Campaign for Nonviolent Resistance (NCNR) organizing list proposing the action on March 12 was in the hands of the Capitol Police.我們意識到什麼是個人的電子郵件，傳送到最高一小群人在全國運動的非暴力抵抗（ NCNR ）組織名單的行動提出在3月12日是手中的國會警察。 Not only that, but the document was falsified by adding a false url to make it look like it came from a public domain source.不僅如此，該文件是偽造的，增加了虛假的網址，使之看起來像它來自一個公共領域的來源。

We suspected that the Capitol Police could have received this information from the Maryland State Police.我們懷疑，國會警察可以收到此信息來自馬里蘭州警方報案。 Because this was a personal email, the only way it could have been obtained was through an infiltrator being on the NCNR organizing list or through hacking into someone’s computer to gain access to personal email – both illegal activities.由於這是一個個人的電子郵件，唯一的辦法可能已獲得是通過滲入正在對NCNR組織名單或通過侵入他人的計算機獲得的個人電子郵件-兩個非法活動。 We held a brief meeting to discuss where to go with this, talking about asking for a dismissal, sanctions against the government, and our lack of opportunity to cross-examine government witnesses on the newly obtained documents because the government had rested its case.我們舉行了一次簡短的會議，討論到哪裡這一點，談論要求解僱，制裁反政府，我們沒有機會盤問證人政府對新獲得的文件，因為政府已經休息的情況。 If we would have had the information while government witnesses were on the stand, we would have been able to question them about the documents.如果我們將不得不的信息，而政府對證人的立場，我們本來可以問他們的證件。

We went back into the courtroom and Maria made a moving motion for judgment of acquittal noting that the government had not proved its case.我們回去的審判和瑪麗亞了一個移動的議案無罪的判決指出，政府沒有證明其案件。 The motion was denied.該議案被否決。 Court broke for the day and we had the evening to determine where to go with the surprising and chilling discovery of the illegally obtained documents.法院打破的一天，我們不得不晚上，以確定去什麼地方的驚訝和寒心發現非法獲得的文件。

On Wednesday morning both Jack Barringer, an attorney to Eve and advisor to the rest of us, and Max introduced a motion for dismissal based on the illegal and falsified evidence that we had received from the government the day before.在今天上午都傑克巴林杰，律師，除夕及顧問，其餘的我們來說，和馬克斯介紹了議案的基礎上解僱的非法和虛假證據，我們收到了來自政府的前一天。 The judge said that he would rule on this motion post-verdict and we would continue with the trial.這位法官說，他將統治這項議案後的判決，我們將繼續進行審判。 It is extremely uncommon to wait until after the jury delivers a verdict to rule on a motion for dismissal.這是極為少見的等待後，陪審團的判決提供了一個以規則的議案被解僱。 Judge Morin also gave us the option of recalling the government witnesses to cross-examine them about the document in question.法官莫蘭也給我們的選擇，回顧政府證人盤問他們了解文件的問題。 After much discussion and some disagreement among defendants, we decided that we would not recall the government witnesses.經過多次討論和一些被告之間的分歧，我們決定，我們將不記得政府的證人。

We proceeded with our case.我們進行了我們的情況。 Judith gave a beautiful opening statement, introducing our case to the jury.朱迪了一個美麗的開幕發言中，介紹我們的情況向陪審團。 Under the advice of one of our attorney advisors, most of us took the stand to explain to the jury why we did what we did.根據意見，我們的律師顧問，我們大多數人採取的立場解釋陪審團為什麼我們以前那樣做。 The statements made by the defendants on the stand were incredibly powerful and moving and for me, helped to deepen my resolve to continue this work.所發表的聲明對被告的立場是難以置信的強大，移動和對我來說，有助於加深我決心繼續這方面的工作。

Max was our third witness and he clearly laid out the case for the jury.馬克斯是我們的第三個證人，他明確規定了案件的陪審團。 Under cross-examination, Mr. Warren, the prosecutor, introduced the illegally obtained document into evidence.根據詰問，沃倫先生，檢察官，介紹了非法獲得的文件為證據。 He then questioned Max about a statement in the email where Max was discussing what “arrestees” would do after the action.然後，他質疑最大的一份聲明中的電子郵件中的最高正在討論什麼“被捕”後，將採取的行動。 Mr. Warren used this statement to try to show the jury that we knew we were breaking the law and we knew all along that we would be arrested.沃倫先生利用這個聲明來表明陪審團，我們知道我們有違反法律，我們都知道，我們會被逮捕。

Max was able to turn this around and explain that we never go to be arrested.馬克斯是能夠把這個周圍和解釋，我們永遠也不會再被逮捕。 Of course we know that we are risking arrest in our actions, but we do not believe that we are doing anything wrong and we never participate in our actions in order to be arrested.當然，我們知道，我們有可能在我們的逮捕行動，但我們不認為我們正在做什麼錯事，我們從來沒有參加我們的行動，以便在被拘捕。 After the prosecutor brought this document to the jury, Max was able to explain to the jury exactly where this document came from and how it fell into the government’s hands in a surreptitious manner.後檢察機關提請本文件向陪審團，最大能夠解釋陪審團正是這份文件來自以及它如何落入政府手中一個秘密的方式進行。 I’m not sure if the jury totally understood the importance of this document.我不敢肯定，如果陪審團完全理解這一點的重要性文件。

The jury came in and announced the verdict.陪審團排在宣布判決。 We were surprised and dismayed when they read the verdict that five of us were acquitted and five were found guilty.我們感到吃驚和失望時，他們的判決改為五年，我們被宣告無罪， 5人被判有罪。 We didn’t understand because we all did the same thing, except for Judith and Art.我們不理解，因為我們都做同樣的事情，但朱迪和藝術。

After the jury left the courtroom, Max renewed his motion for dismissal based on the fact that the government had illegally obtained and falsified evidence that was withheld from us until the government rested its case.之後陪審團離開法庭，馬克斯再次動議辭退依據的事實是，政府已非法獲取和偽造證據，被扣留，直到我們的政府休息的情況。 Judge Morin set a date for a hearing on this matter for November 7.法官莫林設定日期的聽證會在這個問題上的11月7日。 He ordered the government to produce witnesses that can testify as to where this document was obtained.他要求政府出示的證人可以作證，以文件的情況下獲得。

We are guessing that the Maryland State Police illegally obtained this document either through an infiltrator or through hacking into someone’s computer.我們猜測說，馬里蘭州警方非法獲得的這份文件可以通過滲入或通過侵入他人的計算機。 Again, this document was a personal email that Max sent to a limited group of people as a proposal for our action on March 12 in the Senate gallery.此外，這一文件是個人的電子郵件，最高發送到有限的一群人作為提案我們的行動在3月12日在參議院的畫廊。 It was not posted publicly.這不是公開張貼。 However at the end of document was a source, a false url, to make it look like it was in the public domain.然而，在結束文件是一個來源，一個虛假的網址，使其看起來就像是在公共領域。

We all know and kind of joke about the government spying on us.我們都知道和種笑話，政府對我們從事間諜活動。 But it is very chilling and unnerving when you discover actual proof that it is happening.但它是非常冷和緊張時，發現實際證明它正在發生。 We shall see what happens at the November 7 hearing.我們將看看會發生什麼在11月7日聽證會。 The charges against the five who were found guilty may be dismissed that day.指控五誰被判定有罪可能被開除那一天。

As I go through an experience like this trial, as difficult as it is, my commitment to doing this work deepens and I know I can do nothing else.正如我經歷的經驗這樣的審判，因為困難，因為這是我決心做這項工作的深化和我知道我能做到而已。 As difficult as this is for me, I know that what I am going through is nothing compared to what the people of Iraq are suffering because of the occupation of their land by US soldiers.至於困難的，因為這是對我來說，我知道我所經歷相比，沒有什麼對伊拉克人民的痛苦，因為佔領他們的土地的美軍士兵。 I know that what I am doing is nothing compared to what the family members of dead US soldiers are dealing with.我知道，我所沒有做的是什麼相比，家庭成員死亡美軍士兵正在處理。 We must continue to speak out and resist the illegal actions of our government.我們必須繼續大聲疾呼和抵制非法行動我們的政府。 In a few days we will be electing a new president, but no matter what happens our work will not be over.再過幾天，我們將選出一名新總統，但無論發生什麼事情，我們的工作將不會結束。 Both Obama and McCain are committed to continuing the occupation of Iraq and increasing the fighting in Afghanistan.這奧巴馬和麥凱恩都將繼續致力於對伊拉克的佔領，並增加了阿富汗的戰鬥。 If Obama wins, we may be able to sway him, but we must take to the streets and let the new administration know that we will tolerate nothing less than working towards peace in the world.如果奧巴馬獲勝，我們也許能夠動搖他的，但我們必須走上街頭，讓新政府知道，我們不會容忍不亞於致力於世界和平。
