Travis Scott was questioned for several hours on Monday over hundreds of lawsuits that were filed against him after 2021's Astroworld Festival, which left ten dead and thousands injured.
特拉維斯·斯科特周一被審問了幾個(gè)小時(shí) 在2021年的太空世界節(jié)之后,導(dǎo)致10人死亡,數(shù)千人受傷,有數(shù)百起針對(duì)他的訴訟。
The deposition, which lasted nearly eight hours, took place in Houston, Texas, The Associated Press reported. This marked the first time Scott, 32, has been questioned by lawyers over the festival.
據(jù)美聯(lián)社報(bào)道,持續(xù)了近八個(gè)小時(shí)的證詞發(fā)生在德克薩斯州休斯頓。這標(biāo)志著32歲的斯科特首次在電影節(jié)期間接受律師的詢問。
Scott's rep Ted Anastasiou told the outlet: "Travis Scott’s deposition is typical legal procedure. What is not typical is how the media continues to focus on him despite being cleared of any wrongdoing by extensive government investigations, including by the Houston Police Department."
斯科特的代表Ted Anastasiou告訴媒體:“特拉維斯·斯科特的證詞是典型的法律程序。不典型的是,盡管包括休斯頓警察局在內(nèi)的廣泛政府調(diào)查澄清了他的任何不當(dāng)行為,但媒體仍繼續(xù)關(guān)注他。”
He added, "Travis is fully cooperating with the legal process while still remaining committed to his tour in support of his record-breaking album, Utopia, and his charitable efforts to support at-risk communities.”
他補(bǔ)充道,“特拉維斯正在全力配合法律程序,同時(shí)仍致力于他的巡演,以支持他的破紀(jì)錄專輯《烏托邦》,以及他為支持高危社區(qū)所做的慈善努力。”
Scott's rep had no additional comment.
斯科特的代表沒有進(jìn)一步的評(píng)論。
In June, a Texas grand jury convened to decide if Scott and others who helped plan the event should be charged. No criminal charges were pursued.
6月,德克薩斯州的一個(gè)大陪審團(tuán)召開會(huì)議,決定斯科特和其他參與策劃活動(dòng)的人是否應(yīng)該受到指控。沒有追究任何刑事指控。
In a statement obtained by PEOPLE, Scott’s attorney Kent Schaffer said, "Today’s decision by the Harris County District Attorney confirms what we have known all along — that Travis Scott is not responsible for the AstroWorld tragedy."
在《人物》雜志獲得的一份聲明中,斯科特的律師Kent Schaffer表示,“哈里斯縣地方檢察官今天的決定證實(shí)了我們一直以來所知道的事實(shí)——特拉維斯·斯科特不對(duì)太空世界悲劇負(fù)責(zé)。”
"This is consistent with investigative reporting by numerous media outlets and federal and state government reports that have squarely placed the onus for event safety crises on organizers, operators and contractors - not performers," he said. "While waiting patiently for the District Attorney’s decision to not file charges, Travis Scott has been inaccurately and wrongly singled out, despite stopping the show three separate times and being unaware of the events as they were unfolding. Now that this chapter is closed, we hope for the government efforts to focus on what is most important - stopping future heartbreaking tragedies like Astroworld from ever occurring again."
他說:“這與許多媒體的調(diào)查報(bào)道以及聯(lián)邦和州政府的報(bào)道一致,這些報(bào)道將活動(dòng)安全危機(jī)的責(zé)任完全歸咎于組織者、運(yùn)營商和承包商,而不是表演者。”。“在耐心等待地方檢察官?zèng)Q定不提出指控的過程中,特拉維斯·斯科特被不準(zhǔn)確和錯(cuò)誤地挑出來,盡管他曾三次停止演出,也不知道正在發(fā)生的事件?,F(xiàn)在這一章已經(jīng)結(jié)束,我們希望政府努力專注于最重要的事情——阻止未來像A這樣令人心碎的悲劇世界末日不再發(fā)生。“
