I submit that this was not a hot-blooded crime of passion. That at least could be understood, if not condoned.

submit: 主張 hot-blooded: 易怒的 passion: 憤怒 condone: 寬恕

我肯定這不只是一時(shí)沖動(dòng)而犯下的罪行，那至少是可以理解的，即使不能寬恕。

victim: 受害者 shot: 射擊 fire: 射擊 reload: 再裝入

每個(gè)死者都身中四槍，總共是八槍而不是六槍，那表明子彈打完后……他還停下來(lái)裝子彈……
