声音简介

A count in legal terms refers to each separate offense charged against a defendant in an indictment or information.
在法律术语中，罪名指的是在起诉书或信息中针对被告提出的每个单独的罪行。

When a defendant is accused of multiple crimes, each specific accusation is formulated as a separate count.
当被告被指控犯有多项罪行时，每项具体指控都会被列为一个独立的罪名。

This allows for clear and organized legal proceedings, with each count treated independently regarding evidence, defense, and sentencing.
这样可以使法律程序清晰、有序，每个罪名在证据、辩护和判决方面都被独立对待。

Example: Suppose an individual is charged with burglary and assault during the same incident.
例如：假设一个人在同一事件中被控入室盗窃和攻击。

The indictment might contain two counts: one count of burglary for illegally entering a building with the intent to commit a crime, and a second count of assault for attacking someone inside the building.
起诉书可能包含两项罪名：一项是入室盗窃罪，因非法进入建筑物并意图犯罪，另一项是攻击罪，因攻击建筑物内的某人。

Each count would be addressed separately in the trial, allowing the jury to consider the evidence for each crime independently.
在审判中，每个罪名将被单独处理，允许陪审团独立考虑每项罪行的证据。
