　　知情人士透露，受害者是位於當地16街和南大山大道附近的Hacienda護理中心的女病人。因為10年前溺水，植物人狀態的她在此已經10年。29日她產下一名男嬰。

　　“None of the staff were awarethat she was pregnant until she was pretty much giving birth,” a source familiar with the situation said.

　　“直到她生產前，護理中心工作人員對於她懷孕的狀況一無所知。”

　　“How were theyalerted to the factthat she was going into labor?” asked reporter Briana Whitney.

　　“那他們怎麼警醒了她這是要生產了？”記者問。

　　“From what I’ve been told she wasmoaning. And they didn’t knowwhat was wrong with her,” the source said.

　　“我聽説她開始呻吟。直到那時工作人員還不知道她什麼狀況。”

　　Arizona’s Family also learned that the baby is alive.

　　“There was a nurse that was there, and from what I’ve heard she’s the one thatdelivered the baby,” the woman said.

　　“當時有個護士在現場，據説是她接生的。”

　　“What do we know about the baby?” asked Whitney.

　　“孩子如何？”

　　“From what I know the baby isalive, and the baby is healthy,” she said.

　　“據我所知，孩子活着，健康。”

　　The source says the patient required around-the-clock care and many would have access to her room.

　　該知情人士還説因為這女病人是24小時照看的，很多人可以進入她的病房。

　　“She had no way to defend herself in this sort of situation?” asked Whitney.

　　“碰到這種狀況，她沒有辦法自衞吧？”

　　“No. None whatsoever. Not even able to communicate the fact that she was pregnant,” she said.

　　“不可能。她連懷孕了這個事實都無法和別人溝通。”

　　We talked to a Valley OB/GYN about the case.

　　記者還採訪了婦產科醫生。

　　“I can’t even imagine how horrible it must be to be a victim of abuse like that" said Dr. Greg Marchand. “This was an extremely dangerous situation with no monitoring."

　　“這種性侵受害者案例簡直無法想象這有多恐怖。”醫生説“沒有任何孕期監控，這狀況太兇險了。”

　　Marchand said even though a baby can fully develop inside a woman in a vegetative state, it’salarmingthat she had no prenatal care.

　　“沒有任何孕前準備，即便嬰兒在植物人母體內發育完全，也是細思極恐的。”

　　He said the biggest difference between a woman giving birth in a vegetative state, versus a healthy woman, is that this victim could not help push the baby out, andit’s a miracle there were not severe complications.

　　他補充説，植物人母親和健康媽媽的最大區別在於關鍵時刻，植物人母親無法助力孩子。這個案例沒有併發症簡直就是奇蹟。

　　“It could have been an active labor for hours or even days. This easily could have resulted in a fetal death,” he said.

　　“生產有時候會持續幾個小時甚至幾天。那種狀況下胎死腹中也是常見。”

　　Marchand said when though she could not communicate, she likely was able to feel pain during birth.

　　儘管病人無法溝通，她還是很有可能感受到分娩的痛苦的。

　　“There’s no doubt she was able to feel pain, but how much consciousness there was to really take the suffering from that is what I don’t know,” he said.

　　“毫無疑問，她能感知痛苦。但是她感知多大程度的痛苦這是一個謎。”

　　Investigators from multiple agencies are saying next to nothing about the case, but we know that at some point last spring or summer, someone sexually assaulted a woman who was in a persistent vegetative state, and she became pregnant.

　　多方調查組對此案件守口如瓶。有一點可以肯定的是：去年春末夏初，肯定有人性侵了這個植物人病人，導致了她懷孕。

　　It’s not clear if the woman has family or a guardian to advocate for her. But twononprofits came forward today volunteering to do it if there’s not a thorough investigation.

　　目前還不確定是否有家人或監護人站出來為她維權。但已經有兩家非盈利組織站出來志願為該女子維權確保調查能徹底。

　　The Arizona Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence, https://www.azcadv.org/ . Spokesperson Tasha Menaker is “horrified” by the allegations andworries there could be more alleged victims.

　　亞利桑那終止性和家庭暴力組織發言人也表達了“震驚”並擔憂或許存在着更多的受害者。

　　“In sexual assault cases, it’s not uncommon thatperpetratorshave multiple victims and so that would be a concern for us,” she said.

　　“這是性侵。很可能作惡者已經對多個受害者下手，那也是我們要顧慮的情況。”

　　“Our hope is that there will be a thorough investigation that identifies the person who did this and for some reason we weren’t to see a thorough investigation, we would take further steps,” said Menaker.

　　“我們希望一個徹底的調查，確定作惡者。如果因為這樣那樣的原因我們見不到一個徹底的調查，我們將採取其他措施。”

　　“There’s an infant involved which is evidence and so I think the first place to begin would be a DNA test of that child and that’s something the police department has the capacity to do,” she added.

　　“現在有一個嬰兒。警察們應該可以通過嬰兒做DNA比對，這是第一步。”

　　“Many sexual assault perpetrators are actually looking for situations where people are inisolated or vulnerable positionsand because most perpetrators are not reported to police or their cases don’t actually move forward, we always don’ t know if someone hasa history of engaging in sexual harmagainst people,” she said.

　　“作惡者總是尋找那些孤立的或者處於弱勢地位的受害者。那種情況下，他們不會被報警或者他們的犯罪最後沒有被深入調查而跳脱法律制裁。我們就無法知道有些人是否劣跡斑斑。”

　　She also explained that people living with disabilitiesare three more timesat-risk of sexual violence than people without disabilities.

　　她同時指出，殘障人士受性侵的概率高於正常人士三倍。

　　亞利桑那殘障法律中心是一個接受聯邦政府撥款的非盈利的律師事務所。它旨在“保護廣義上的殘障人士的權利，保護對象有身體，智力，精神，認知，感官方面的障礙。”

　　J.J. Rico leads the protection and advocacy agency in Arizona and could open up another investigation.

　　J.J. Rico 帶領這個亞利桑那保護辯護團隊，可以展開新一輪獨立調查。

　　“Were there other physical signs that someone failed to recognize or take action on earlier than her actually giving birth?” said Rico.

　　“In my career, 17 years of I have not personally heard of someone giving birth to a child. I’ve seen reports of sexual assaults that occurred at facilities and institutions, but this is the first time in 17 years I’ve heard of someone give birth to a child,” he said.

　　“17年的職業生涯聽説過這樣那樣的案子，但這個案子史無前例。”

　　“Concerns are how this happened? The status of the person with the disability and how she’s being cared for now moving forward and also what led to this potential sexual assault. I’m concerned for her an other residents,” he questioned.

　　“事情到底如何發生的。這位障礙人士的狀態以及現在如何被照顧，到底是什麼引發了這性侵。我還得考慮到其他的護理中心的病人。”
