The child witness interview 场景学习单

A young witness sits beside a trusted adult while two investigators prepare to ask about a frightening event.

一名年轻证人坐在信任的成年人身旁，两位调查人员准备询问一起令人害怕的事件。

INVESTIGATOR A

The tall man in the blue coat was holding the weapon, correct?

那个穿蓝外套的高个子拿着武器，对吗？

INVESTIGATOR B

A reliable account is invited, not supplied by the question.

可靠的陈述应由对方说出，而不是由问题提供。

INVESTIGATOR B

Start wherever you remember clearly. Tell us what you saw and heard, and say “I do not know” whenever you are unsure.

从你记得最清楚的地方开始。告诉我们你看见和听见了什么，不确定时就说“我不知道”。

WITNESS

I heard a door close first. Then I saw two people, but I could not see both faces.

我先听到门关上。然后看见两个人，但我看不清两个人的脸。

The record becomes stronger because uncertainty remains visible instead of being filled by an adult assumption.

因为不确定之处被保留下来，而没有被成年人的推断填补，这份记录变得更可靠。
