shed new light on带来新线索

My lord, members of the jury, the prosecution has very ably presented against the prisoner, Leonard Vole, a case with the most overwhelming circumstantial evidence. Among the witnesses you have heard Chief Inspector Hearne, who has given his testimony in a fair and impartial manner, as he always does. He has put before you a clever theory of how this crime was committed. Whether it is theory or actual fact, however, you will decide for yourselves. And then you have heard the evidence of Janet McKenzie, a worthy and devoted housekeeper who has suffered two most grievous losses. I will not comment further on her evidence, but will express only my deepest sympathy for her in both these... mishaps. And most damaging of all, the prosecution has produced a surprise witness, one Christine Helm, whom the prisoner brought from the rubble of her homeland to the safety of this country, giving her his love and the protection of his name. I objected to her testimony because a wife cannot give evidence harmful to her husband. But it has been proven that her marriage to Mr Vole was fraudulent and bigamous. Therefore, her evidence must be admitted and you must consider it. For what it is worth. Such is the prosecution's case. Now it is the tum of the defence. We could present, on behalf of the prisoner, witnesses to his character, his war record, the lack of criminal or evil association in his past. However, only one witness can shed new light on this tragic riddle. The prisoner himself. Members of the jury, I call Leonard Stephen Vole.

法官阁下，各位陪审员， 控方非常高明地针对被告伦纳德·沃尔，提出了一桩 拥有最压倒性间接证据的案子。 在诸位证人当中， 你们已经听过首席督察赫恩的证词，他一如既往，作证公正无私。 他向你们提出了一个精巧的推理，说明这桩罪案是怎么发生的。 不过，这究竟是推理还是事实，要由你们自己判断。 接着，你们听取了珍妮特·麦肯齐的证词， 一位可敬又尽责的女管家，她遭受了两桩极其惨痛的损失。 对她的证词，我不再作更多评论， 只想就这两桩……不幸，向她致以我最深切的同情。 而最致命的是，控方传唤了一位出人意料的证人——克里斯蒂娜·赫尔姆， 被告把她从故国的废墟中带出，来到这个国家的安全之地， 给了她自己的爱，还有他姓氏的庇护。 我曾反对她作证，因为妻子不能提供对丈夫不利的证词。 但现已证明，她与沃尔先生的婚姻属欺诈，且构成重婚。 因此，她的证词必须被采纳，你们也必须予以考虑。 不管它值多少分量。 控方的案情就是这样。现在轮到辩方了。 我们可以代表被告传唤 证明他品行、战功，以及他过去没有犯罪或与恶人往来的证人。 然而，只有一位证人能为这桩悲剧性的谜团带来新的线索。 被告本人。 各位陪审员，我传唤伦纳德·斯蒂芬·沃尔。
