On the last day of Rezwan Kohistani’s life, he ate lunch alone.
在雷兹万·科希斯塔尼生命的最后一天，他独自吃午餐。
Three other boys were at his table in the high school cafeteria, two of their trays touching Rezwan’s, surveillance video shows.
监控视频显示，在高中食堂里，另外三个男孩坐在他的桌子旁，他们的两个托盘碰到了雷兹万的托盘。
They laughed among themselves, seemingly oblivious to their classmate, even after one of the boys accidentally knocked over Rezwan’s milk carton.
他们互相大笑，似乎没有注意到他们的同学，即使其中一个男孩不小心打翻了雷兹万的牛奶盒。
Rezwan, a tall and handsome freshman, had arrived at the school four months earlier, after fleeing Afghanistan with his family.
雷兹万是一名高大英俊的新生，四个月前与家人逃离阿富汗后来到这所学校。
He sat at the table for a few more minutes, at one point covering his face in apparent distress.
他在桌旁又坐了几分钟，一度捂着脸，表情明显很痛苦。
Then he got up and made his way through the halls, past a bulletin board announcing, “You belong.”
然后他起身穿过大厅，经过一块公告牌，上面写着：“你属于这里。”
Rezwan pushed open the school door, walked out into the rain and sent his mother a text in his native language, Dari, saying “goodbye.”
雷兹万推开学校门，走进雨中，用母语达里语给母亲发了一条短信，说“再见”。
Months earlier, the Kohistanis had been among the lucky ones.
几个月前，科希斯坦人就属于幸运者之一。
The eight members of the Kohistani family had fled Kabul as it fell to the Taliban in August 2021, catching an overcrowded evacuation flight arranged as part of President Joe Biden’s pledge to rescue Afghan allies .
2021 年 8 月，喀布尔落入塔利班手中，科希斯塔尼家族的 8 名成员搭乘一架拥挤的撤离航班逃离了喀布尔，这是乔·拜登总统承诺拯救阿富汗盟友的一部分而安排的。
Rezwan’s father, Lemar, had spent years risking his life to distribute fuel to the Americans.
雷兹万的父亲勒马尔多年来冒着生命危险向美国人分发燃料。
The Kohistanis, especially 14-year-old Rezwan, saw their arrival in America as an opportunity.
科希斯坦人，尤其是 14 岁的雷兹万，将来到美国视为一个机会。
But the family found itself isolated in a new home that made little sense to them: Oronogo, a sleepy town of 2,500 in southwest Missouri where almost all of the residents are white.
但一家人发现自己被孤立在一个对他们来说毫无意义的新家中：奥罗诺戈，密苏里州西南部一个只有 2,500 人的沉睡小镇，几乎所有居民都是白人。
There were no other Afghans for miles.
几英里内都没有其他阿富汗人。
A few other Afghan refugees were scattered across the surrounding Joplin metropolitan area.
其他一些阿富汗难民分散在乔普林大都市区周围。
That part of Missouri has a history with the Ku Klux Klan and lynchings , and today it has few immigrants of any nationality.
密苏里州的那个地区有着三K党和私刑的历史，如今这里几乎没有任何国籍的移民。
About a decade ago, the area’s only mosque was shot at and then set ablaze .
大约十年前，该地区唯一的一座清真寺遭到枪击，然后被纵火焚烧。
Rezwan’s school had never enrolled a newly arrived refugee, according to administrators.
据管理人员称，雷兹万的学校从未招收过新来的难民。
Without Dari interpreters on staff, Rezwan used Google Translate to try to engage with his teachers and classmates.
由于没有达里语翻译，雷兹万只能使用谷歌翻译来尝试与老师和同学交流。
He sometimes came home crying, telling his family that he’d been mocked for things like fasting during Ramadan.
他有时会哭着回家，告诉家人他因为斋月期间禁食等事情而受到嘲笑。
His teacher, noticing him struggle with attendance and grades, sent repeated pleas for help to his resettlement agency, to no avail.
他的老师注意到他在出勤率和成绩方面遇到困难，多次向安置机构请求帮助，但无济于事。
“We’d been left alone,” said Lemar.
“我们被孤立了，”勒马尔说。
“We tried to leave.
“我们试图离开。
But what do I know about how this system works?”
但我对这个系统如何运作了解多少？”
How did the Kohistanis wind up so cut off from other Afghans?
科希斯坦人为何会与其他阿富汗人如此隔绝？
And how did Rezwan end up at a school that didn’t know what to do with him?
雷兹万怎么会来到一所不知道该拿他做什么的学校呢？
The answer lies in a cascading series of failures that stretched from a tiny Missouri nonprofit to the White House, which was ill-prepared to handle the human fallout of America’s longest war.
答案在于一连串的失败，从密苏里州的一个小型非营利组织到白宫，白宫都没有做好应对美国最长战争对人类造成的影响的准备。
The United States has a long and fraught history when it comes to welcoming refugees.
美国在欢迎难民方面有着悠久而令人担忧的历史。
For decades, the resettlement system has been chronically underfunded , with the government outsourcing the work to a network of often-overstretched nonprofits that are supposed to help refugees navigate their new and deeply foreign worlds.
几十年来，安置系统长期资金不足，政府将工作外包给一个经常不堪重负的非营利组织网络，这些组织本应帮助难民在陌生的新世界中航行。
The system was further gutted when President Donald Trump slashed the number of refugees that the U.S. would accept each year by 80% .
当唐纳德·特朗普总统将美国每年接受的难民数量削减 80% 时，这一制度进一步遭到破坏。
Hundreds of nonprofits, which relied on a small payment for each refugee they handled, had to cut their staff or simply close.
数以百计的非营利组织不得不裁员或干脆关闭，这些组织依赖于为每名难民支付少量费用。
As a candidate, Biden had promised to reverse Trump’s cuts and “reassert America’s commitment to asylum-seekers and refugees.” Once he became president, experts, advocates and members of Congress also urged him specifically to do more to evacuate Afghan allies before U.S. troops withdrew.
作为候选人，拜登曾承诺扭转特朗普的削减政策，并“重申美国对寻求庇护者和难民的承诺”。他就任总统后，专家、支持者和国会议员还特别敦促他在美军撤军之前采取更多措施撤离阿富汗盟友。
But the administration let in only a trickle of Afghans .
但政府只允许一小部分阿富汗人入境。
And Biden wavered on his pledge to cancel Trump’s historically low cap on refugees.
拜登对取消特朗普历史上较低的难民上限的承诺也动摇了。
The White House said it needed to assess the damage done by the previous administration.
白宫表示需要评估上届政府造成的损害。
After pressure from advocates in the spring of 2021, Biden agreed to let in more refugees, but even then he raised the cap to only three-quarters of the pre-Trump numbers.
2021 年春天，在支持者的压力下，拜登同意接纳更多难民，但即便如此，他仍将上限提高到仅为特朗普上台前人数的四分之三。
By August, when Kabul fell, most resettlement nonprofits that relied on federal payments were only just beginning to rebuild.
到八月，喀布尔陷落时，大多数依赖联邦付款的重新安置非营利组织才刚刚开始重建。
Suddenly, they were forced to handle the U.S.’s biggest refugee influx in decades.
突然间，他们被迫应对美国数十年来最大规模的难民涌入。
“They brought in numbers that were close to the amount we would resettle as a nation in a year, but they did it in a month,” said Ann O’Brien, an official at a Connecticut resettlement organization that remained open after Trump’s cuts by relying on volunteers.
康涅狄格州一个重新安置组织的官员安·奥布莱恩(Ann O’Brien)表示：“他们带来的人数接近我们作为一个国家一年内重新安置的数量，但他们在一个月内就完成了。”在特朗普削减预算后，该组织依靠志愿者仍然保持开放。
O’Brien and others said their groups initially had to pay out of their own pockets to care for the incoming Afghans, as Biden and Congress took nearly two months to allocate emergency funds.
奥布莱恩等人表示，他们的组织最初必须自掏腰包来照顾即将到来的阿富汗人，因为拜登和国会花了近两个月的时间来分配紧急资金。
“All the resettlement agencies were welcoming families with no federal funds coming through,” O’Brien said.
“所有安置机构都欢迎没有联邦资金的家庭，”奥布莱恩说。
“We were fronting the federal government cash to take care of these families.”
“我们提供联邦政府现金来照顾这些家庭。”
Reports that Afghans were not getting the help they needed began piling up across the country.
有关阿富汗人没有获得所需帮助的报道开始在全国各地堆积如山。
The refugees were being left without food and found themselves facing eviction and unable to get in contact with the nonprofits tasked with helping them.
难民们没有食物，发现自己面临被驱逐，而且无法与负责帮助他们的非营利组织取得联系。
When the Kohistanis arrived in the U.S., they were among tens of thousands of Afghans packed into military bases.
当科希斯坦人抵达美国时，他们是被挤进军事基地的数万名阿富汗人中的一员。
They waited for a placement for four months in Fort Dix in New Jersey.
他们在新泽西州迪克斯堡等待了四个月的安置。
By many accounts, the Russian-doll-like resettlement system buckled under the strain.
许多人认为，俄罗斯套娃式的安置系统在压力下崩溃了。
The government relies on nine federally designated nonprofit organizations, which, in turn, often outsource the critical work of resettlement to subcontractors who are tasked with finding homes, jobs, medical care and schools for refugee families.
政府依赖九个联邦指定的非营利组织，而这些组织往往将关键的重新安置工作外包给分包商，这些分包商的任务是为难民家庭寻找住房、工作、医疗保健和学校。
In exchange, the government pays $2,275 per refugee .
作为交换，政府向每位难民支付 2,275 美元。
Every Wednesday, the U.S. Department of State hosts a Zoom call with resettlement groups, who then select refugees to take.
每个星期三，美国国务院都会与重新安置小组举行 Zoom 电话会议，然后重新安置小组选择要接收的难民。
Lemar had initially asked to be resettled near cousins in Los Angeles, but as a second choice, he offered St. Louis, where an aunt lives.
勒马尔最初要求在洛杉矶的表兄弟姐妹附近定居，但作为第二选择，他提出了圣路易斯，那里有一位阿姨居住的地方。
During a December call, one of the nonprofits, the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, selected the Kohistani file.
在 12 月的一次电话会议上，非营利组织之一美国难民和移民委员会选择了科希斯塔尼档案。
Soon after, Lemar’s aunt, Marina Kohistani, received a call from a resettlement official to verify the relationship.
不久之后，勒马尔的姨妈玛丽娜·科希斯塔尼接到了安置官员的电话，要求核实两人的关系。
Marina vowed to support the family.
玛丽娜发誓要支持这个家庭。
She had fled Afghanistan nearly two decades before and knew the family would need extra help.
她在大约二十年前逃离阿富汗，知道家人需要额外的帮助。
“I told them the kids need special support,” Marina recalled.
“我告诉他们孩子们需要特别支持，”玛丽娜回忆道。
“Life here is different in so many ways.”
“这里的生活在很多方面都与众不同。”
Lemar said he was soon told that his case had been assigned to a resettlement subcontractor, the International Institute of St. Louis.
勒马尔说，他很快就被告知，他的案件已被分配给安置分包商圣路易斯国际研究所。
St. Louis had been ranked highly by the State Department as a relocation spot for Afghan refugees because of its relative affordability and the availability of jobs, housing and services.
圣路易斯因其相对负担能力以及就业、住房和服务的可用性而被国务院列为阿富汗难民的重新安置地点。
It has a school dedicated to students new to the U.S., complete with Dari and Pashto interpreters, along with teachers trained to recognize early signs of stress.
它有一所专门为刚到美国的学生提供服务的学校，配有达里语和普什图语翻译，以及经过培训可以识别压力早期迹象的教师。
But in August of 2021, the International Institute was only just beginning to rebuild after Trump’s cuts.
但到 2021 年 8 月，国际研究所在特朗普削减开支后才刚刚开始重建。
It had nearly two dozen job openings, including for caseworkers, job placement coordinators and school program managers.
它有近两打职位空缺，包括社会工作者、就业安置协调员和学校项目经理。
“There wasn’t enough time to hire and train staff, plus no money to do so,” said Anna Crosslin, who served as the organization’s director for many years but left in the spring of last year, before the Kohistanis arrived.
“没有足够的时间来雇用和培训员工，也没有钱这样做，”安娜·克罗斯林(Anna Crosslin)说。她曾担任该组织的主管多年，但于去年春天科希斯坦人到来之前离开。
Paul Costigan, who helps run the International Institute’s refugee program (and who also oversees Missouri’s resettlement program as the state refugee coordinator ), said he hadn’t known the family wanted to go to St. Louis.
帮助管理国际研究所难民计划的保罗·科斯蒂根（Paul Costigan）（同时也是密苏里州难民协调员，负责监督密苏里州的重新安置计划）表示，他不知道这家人想去圣路易斯。
“I think if we knew they wanted St. Louis, that would have been approved,” he said.
“我认为，如果我们知道他们想要圣路易斯，那就会得到批准，”他说。
Instead, the International Institute assigned the Kohistanis and other families to their branch 200 miles away, the International Institute of Southwest Missouri.
相反，国际学院将科希斯塔尼一家和其他家庭分配到了 200 英里外的分支机构——密苏里州西南部国际学院。
“We’re a small office,” said Rebekah Thomas, director of the southwest Missouri branch.
“我们的办公室很小，”密苏里州西南部分公司主任丽贝卡·托马斯 (Rebekah Thomas) 说。
“We were quickly overwhelmed."
“我们很快就不知所措了。”
So her office further outsourced some of the cases it had received.
因此，她的办公室进一步将收到的一些案件外包出去。
It made an informal agreement to hand the Kohistanis and six other families to an even smaller organization: Refugee And Immigrant Services & Education, or RAISE, a small nonprofit based near the Arkansas-Missouri-Oklahoma border.
它达成了一项非正式协议，将科希斯塔尼一家和其他六个家庭交给一个更小的组织：难民和移民服务与教育组织（RAISE），这是一个位于阿肯色州、密苏里州和俄克拉荷马州边境附近的小型非营利组织。
There was no contract in place.
没有合同。
Nor had RAISE ever resettled refugees before.
RAISE 以前也从未安置过难民。
Founded in 2017, its staff of four had taught English and helped Somali refugees get jobs at a local chicken plant.
该公司成立于 2017 年，四名员工教授英语，并帮助索马里难民在当地一家养鸡厂找到工作。
RAISE had never before sought housing or enrolled kids in school.
RAISE 以前从未寻求过住房或让孩子入学。
Michael Newman, RAISE’s executive director, said the organization saw a chance to grow by filling in some of the gaps left by the Trump-era cuts.
RAISE 执行董事迈克尔·纽曼 (Michael Newman) 表示，该组织看到了通过填补特朗普时代削减开支留下的一些空白来实现发展的机会。
“This was our opportunity to start that process,” said Newman.
“这是我们启动这一进程的机会，”纽曼说。
Newman, who joined RAISE in 2018, had previously worked in insurance and for a company that sells adjustable beds.
纽曼于 2018 年加入 RAISE，此前曾在保险公司和一家销售可调节床的公司工作。
He had no previous experience with refugees.
他以前没有与难民打交道的经验。
“This is like my third career,” he said.
“这就像我的第三份职业，”他说。
Asked what factors had gone into choosing a location for the Kohistanis, Newman said his faith guided him to help find “nice homes” for refugees.
当被问及为科希斯塔人选择居住地的因素时，纽曼说，他的信仰引导他帮助难民寻找“美好家园”。
The Kohistanis, including an uncle who fled with them, landed at Springfield-Branson National Airport on Dec.
科希斯坦人，包括与他们一起逃亡的叔叔，于 12 月 12 日降落在斯普林菲尔德-布兰森国家机场。

They were met by a RAISE staffer and volunteers, who drove them more than an hour west.
RAISE 工作人员和志愿者迎接了他们，并驱车向西行驶了一个多小时。
They passed the area’s largest town, Joplin, then the smaller Webb City, and wound up traveling down a rural single-lane highway into Oronogo, Missouri.“I wanted to say, ‘Where are we going?’ but the translator was in the other car,” recalled Lemar, who’s 39 and broad chested with jet-black hair.
他们经过该地区最大的城镇乔普林，然后是较小的韦伯市，最后沿着乡村单车道高速公路进入密苏里州奥罗诺戈。“我想说，‘我们要去哪里？’但翻译在另一辆车里，”39 岁、胸部宽阔、头发乌黑的勒马尔回忆道。
“We were coming from a city, but there was nothing around us on the road except farms.” They finally drove down a dead-end gravel road to their three-bedroom townhouse.
“我们来自城市，但路上除了农场之外什么也没有。”他们最终沿着一条没有尽头的碎石路开到了他们的三居室联排别墅。
There was an elementary school nearby, but little else.
附近有一所小学，但除此之外就没什么了。
Around the corner was a shuttered fireworks store and a car wash.
拐角处有一家已关门的烟花店和一家洗车场。
Half a mile down the road in one direction was a Dollar General; in the other direction, a gas station.
沿路往一个方向行驶半英里，有一家 Dollar General 百货公司。另一个方向是加油站。
Groceries were 7 miles away.
杂货店距离酒店有 7 英里。
“There are more cows and sheep here than people,” Lemar recalls Rezwan saying when he first surveyed the landscape around the house.
“这里的牛和羊比人还多，”雷兹万第一次观察房子周围的景观时说道。
“This isn’t a city, this is a village.
“这不是城市，这是村庄。
Why are we here?”
我们为什么在这里？
In exchange for his risky fuel-delivery job in Afghanistan, Lemar’s salary had offered his family comforts in Kabul.
勒马尔的薪水为他在喀布尔的家人提供了舒适的生活，以换取他在阿富汗从事危险的燃料运输工作。
They owned a bungalow in a bustling, middle-class neighborhood and the kids all went to private school.
他们在繁华的中产阶级社区拥有一栋平房，孩子们都上私立学校。
The family would pile into their Toyota Highlander for holidays and drive into the mountains to visit their grandparents.
假期里，一家人会开着丰田汉兰达，开车进山看望祖父母。
Lemar and his wife, Muzhda Kohistani, said they did not expect the United States to replicate their old lifestyle.
勒马尔和他的妻子穆日达·科希斯塔尼表示，他们并不指望美国会复制他们以前的生活方式。
But they were at least hoping for familiar faces who could help them navigate the basics of life in the U.S.: How to pay for lunch .
但他们至少希望有熟悉的面孔可以帮助他们了解美国生活的基本知识：如何支付午餐费用。
Where to get wifi access.
哪里可以获得无线网络连接。
How to get health care .
如何获得医疗保健。
As it was preparing to host Afghans, RAISE announced a partnership with a church to gather volunteers and hold cultural orientations ahead of the refugees’ arrival.
在准备接待阿富汗人时，RAISE 宣布与一家教堂建立合作伙伴关系，在难民抵达之前召集志愿者并举办文化介绍会。
The volunteers stocked the Kohistanis’ pantry with Afghan groceries, but they knew little about Afghan culture or customs.
志愿者们在科希斯塔人的食品储藏室里备满了阿富汗食品，但他们对阿富汗的文化和习俗知之甚少。
“We received cultural sensitivity training,” said one of the church volunteers.
“我们接受了文化敏感性培训，”一名教堂志愿者说。
“But the idea that we could be trained and deployed in specific ways” like recognizing signs of depression or finding Rezwan a doctor, “is preposterous.”
“但是，我们可以以特定方式接受培训和部署的想法”，例如识别抑郁症的迹象或为雷兹万找医生，“是荒谬的。”
While RAISE worked with a local church, the refugee group said it didn’t create a similar arrangement with the mosque in the area.
虽然 RAISE 与当地一家教堂合作，但该难民组织表示，它没有与该地区的清真寺建立类似的安排。
Leaders of the small Muslim community in nearby Joplin said they were contacted by RAISE only once last year before the Kohistanis and other refugees arrived.
乔普林附近的一个穆斯林小社区的领导人表示，去年在科希斯塔人和其他难民抵达之前，RAISE 只与他们联系过一次。
Navid Zaidi, the treasurer of the local Islamic Society of Joplin, shared a text exchange in which a RAISE official asked if Shiite and Sunni Muslims could be placed in the same community.
乔普林当地伊斯兰协会的财务主管纳维德·扎伊迪 (Navid Zaidi) 分享了一段短信，其中 RAISE 官员询问是否可以将什叶派和逊尼派穆斯林安置在同一个社区。
But Zaidi said they were never asked to support the resettlement process.
但扎伊迪表示，他们从未被要求支持重新安置过程。
“We were approached to answer questions like: ‘Is there a mosque in the region?’” he recalled.
“我们被要求回答这样的问题：‘该地区有清真寺吗？’”他回忆道。
“That’s it.”
“就是这样。”
RAISE placed a few Afghan families in Joplin.
RAISE 在乔普林安置了一些阿富汗家庭。
But some of them felt isolated too.
但他们中的一些人也感到孤立。
“For us, we wanted a community of Afghan brothers and sisters,” said Nasirullah Safi.
“对我们来说，我们想要一个由阿富汗兄弟姐妹组成的社区，”纳西鲁拉·萨菲说。
The Safis moved to Houston with the help of a cousin who worked for a refugee resettlement group.
萨菲一家在为难民安置小组工作的表弟的帮助下搬到了休斯顿。
“We have family here in Houston, which made it better for my wife and children to grow.
“我们在休斯顿有家人，这让我的妻子和孩子能够更好地成长。
We call this place home.”
我们称这个地方为家。”
Zaidi said placing the Kohistanis in the smaller, more rural Oronogo was “not appropriate.”
扎伊迪表示，将科希斯坦人安置在规模较小、农村较多的奥罗诺戈地区“不合适”。
“We were all glad to be safe, but nothing about this place felt like home,” said Lemar.
“我们都很高兴能够安全，但这个地方没有什么像家的感觉，”勒马尔说。
“Rezwan was the most upset, and he was determined to get out as soon as we arrived.”
“雷兹万是最沮丧的，他决心我们一到就离开。”
On a crisp January morning, Rezwan started his freshman year at Webb City High School, 3 miles south of the family’s home.
一月一个清爽的早晨，雷兹万在离家以南 3 英里的韦伯市高中开始了他的一年级生活。
Rezwan wore clothes that had been donated by a local church: sweatpants that were too short, a T-shirt that was too big and sneakers that were worn out.
雷兹万穿着当地教堂捐赠的衣服：太短的运动裤、太大的 T 恤和破旧的运动鞋。
Rezwan smiled and nodded as Lee introduced him to some of her other students who were nonnative speakers of English.
当李把他介绍给其他一些母语非英语的学生时，雷兹万微笑着点点头。
No one else spoke Dari.
没有其他人讲达里语。
Over the last three years, Lee had taught Webb City’s few migrant students from Mexico and Central America, often sacrificing her summers to give them extra assistance.
在过去的三年里，李教授了韦伯城为数不多的来自墨西哥和中美洲的移民学生，经常牺牲暑假时间为他们提供额外的帮助。
When Lee learned that her remote Missouri town might be hosting Afghans, she had reached out to RAISE to request training “to help [Webb City] be prepared to meet the needs of these children and their families,” as she wrote in a Nov.
当李得知她所在的密苏里州偏远小镇可能收容阿富汗人时，她向 RAISE 寻求培训，“帮助[韦伯市]做好准备，满足这些儿童及其家人的需求”，正如她在 11 月 17 日的一篇文章中所写。
16, 2021, email .
2021 年 16 日，电子邮件。
No one responded.
没有人回应。
State money was available to pay for interpreters to help refugees adjust, but the school didn’t apply.
国家可以提供资金聘请翻译来帮助难民适应环境，但学校没有申请。
In an early assessment, Lee wrote that Rezwan’s English was better than she expected, but he was still worried for family members who had been left behind in Afghanistan.
在一份早期评估中，李写道，雷兹万的英语比她预期的要好，但他仍然担心留在阿富汗的家人。
“We are just trying to get them familiarized with our language and culture,” she wrote on Jan.
“我们只是想让他们熟悉我们的语言和文化，”她在一月二十二日写道。
29, 2022.
2022 年 29 日。
“He is in survival mode, but seems very grateful to be here.”
“他正处于生存模式，但似乎非常感激能来到这里。”
On his second day of school, a classmate noticed Rezwan was missing from class.
上学第二天，一位同学注意到雷兹万缺课了。
She wrote to him over Instagram.
她通过 Instagram 给他写信。
The classmate, who asked not to be identified, asked Rezwan: “Do you live close to the school, because maybe my mom could take you.”
这位不愿透露姓名的同学问雷兹万：“你住在学校附近吗，因为也许我妈妈可以带你去。”
“Yes, but your mom will be bothered,” he wrote back.
“是的，但你妈妈会很烦恼，”他回复道。
“Unless your mother is merciful.”
“除非你母亲仁慈。”
The classmate and her mother drove Rezwan to school the next day.
第二天，这位同学和她的母亲开车送雷兹万去学校。
They hummed along to the radio and helped Rezwan practice English.
他们跟着收音机哼唱，帮助雷兹万练习英语。
“I can understand you,” he’d tease when she and her mother tried to break down a new phrase for him.
“我能理解你，”当她和她母亲试图为他分解一个新短语时，他会开玩笑说。
Rezwan and his classmate continued to message each other regularly the first few weeks he was at Webb City.
在雷兹万来到韦伯城的头几周，他和他的同学继续定期互相发信息。
But his attempts to connect with her often seemed to miss the mark.
但他与她联系的尝试似乎常常没有达到目的。
When she asked Rezwan whether he had made any new friends, he said no.
当她问雷兹万是否结识了新朋友时，他说没有。
One student who did befriend Rezwan was Judah Beard.
犹大·比尔德（Judah Beard）是一位与雷兹万成为朋友的学生。
They met during a school pickleball lesson.
他们是在学校泡菜球课上认识的。
Judah was a senior, three grades above Rezwan.
犹大是一名高年级学生，比雷兹万高出三个年级。
But they were around the same height, both athletic and fans of soccer.
但他们身高差不多，都是运动健将，而且都是足球迷。
They bonded over fashion and their similar sense of style.
他们因时尚和相似的风格感而结下了不解之缘。
“He used to ask me all sorts of questions: how I got my hair so soft, where to buy jeans, what I thought about America’s wars.”
“他常常问我各种各样的问题：我的头发是如何变得如此柔软的，在哪里可以买到牛仔裤，我对美国战争的看法。”
Beard tried to introduce his senior classmates to Rezwan.
比尔德试图把他的高年级同学介绍给雷兹万。
But they found little in common with the Afghan teen.
但他们发现与这名阿富汗青少年没有什么共同之处。
Back home, Rezwan had amassed a following on TikTok, where he would flirt with the camera while lip syncing Bollywood ballads and dramatic Afghan song lyrics about life, love and sometimes death.
回到家后，雷兹万在 TikTok 上积累了一批追随者，他会一边对着镜头调情，一边对着宝莱坞歌谣和关于生命、爱情，有时甚至是死亡的戏剧性阿富汗歌曲歌词进行口型同步。
At his new school, Rezwan would share TikToks of people falling down or farting that the other kids found childish.
在他的新学校，雷兹万会分享别人摔倒或放屁的 TikTok 视频，其他孩子认为这些内容很幼稚。
Some videos were in Dari, which the other teens couldn’t understand.
有些视频是达里语，其他青少年无法理解。
Sometimes kids would ask Rezwan a question and he’d turn to his phone for a translation.
有时孩子们会问雷兹万一个问题，他就会用手机进行翻译。
Beard recalled that the resulting exchanges often didn’t make sense, and kids started to feel as though they were talking to a computer.
比尔德回忆说，由此产生的交流通常没有意义，孩子们开始感觉自己好像在和电脑说话。
“He’d try to ask a question.
“他会尝试问一个问题。
I wouldn’t understand and he’d get frustrated and stop trying,” Beard said.
我不会理解，他会感到沮丧并停止尝试，”比尔德说。
“Most of the kids didn’t know his name.
“大多数孩子都不知道他的名字。
When he had no one to talk to, he’d go on FaceTime,” talking to friends and family back home.
当他没有人可以交谈时，他会通过 FaceTime 与家里的朋友和家人交谈。
Rezwan tried to get noticed.
雷兹万试图引起注意。
He started wearing tight pants and satiny shirts, leaving the top three buttons undone, hoping to look like soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo.
他开始穿紧身裤和缎面衬衫，把上面的三颗纽扣解开，希望看起来像足球明星克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多。
When he wore chunky sneakers, classmates mocked him for “knockoff Yeezys.”
当他穿着厚底运动鞋时，同学们嘲笑他是“山寨 Yeezys”。
Beard remembers that students in gym class made a point of walking on the opposite side of the basketball court from Rezwan.
比尔德记得，体育课上的学生特意走到雷兹万篮球场的对面。
“It’s not natural to see,” said Beard.
“这看起来很不自然，”比尔德说。
“I’d see him over to the side, walking at the same pace as everyone, and there would be no one near him.”
“我会看到他在旁边，以与每个人相同的速度行走，而且他附近没有人。”
His English teacher, Lee, tried to help Rezwan.
他的英语老师李试图帮助雷兹万。
She emailed RAISE on Feb.
她于 2 月 2 日给 RAISE 发了电子邮件。
22 asking again for cultural training .
22日再次要求进行文化培训。
Three weeks later, RAISE’s newly hired school enrollment coordinator, Madeline Bridgford, wrote back asking how school was going for the Kohistani family.
三周后，RAISE 新聘用的学校招生协调员马德琳·布里奇福德 (Madeline Bridgford) 回信询问科希斯塔尼一家的学校情况。
By late March, Rezwan was struggling to make it through the school day, either leaving early or arriving midday, attendance records show.
出勤记录显示，到了三月下旬，雷兹万正在努力度过一天的学习生活，要么早退，要么中午到校。
Lee wrote in an email at the time that she tried to reach out to Rezwan’s parents, but they didn’t respond.
李当时在一封电子邮件中写道，她试图联系雷兹万的父母，但他们没有回应。
Lemar said he was out of town visiting family.
勒马尔说他要出城探望家人。
When RAISE’s Bridgford responded to Lee, the coordinator said none of the teacher’s problems were unique.
当 RAISE 的 Bridgford 回应 Lee 时，协调员表示，这位老师的问题并不是独一无二的。
Other schools and Afghan families were also requesting additional resources from RAISE.
其他学校和阿富汗家庭也向 RAISE 请求额外资源。
“I actually just found out today that school in Afghanistan is ½ day,” she wrote.
“实际上我今天才发现阿富汗的学校上课时间为 ½ 天，”她写道。
“I’m only part-time and it’s actually insane how just an incredible amount of things need attention every day!!” (Bridgford did not respond to requests for comment.)
“我只是兼职，每天都有大量的事情需要关注，这真是太疯狂了！” （布里奇福德没有回应置评请求。）
On March 28, Rezwan told Lee that he was moving in with his uncle in nearby Joplin and transferring to Joplin High School, where a few Afghan kids were enrolled.
3 月 28 日，雷兹万告诉李，他要搬到附近乔普林和叔叔一起住，并转学到乔普林高中，那里有几个阿富汗孩子就读。
But that move never happened.
但这一举动从未发生过。
He missed 16 classes that week, according to attendance records.
根据出勤记录，那周他缺席了 16 节课。
“I don’t know what’s going on with him, he seems to think he can make his own rules,” Lee wrote to a Joplin teacher over email.
“我不知道他怎么了，他似乎认为他可以制定自己的规则，”李通过电子邮件写给乔普林的一位老师。
His parents said that after their evacuation, they weren’t always focused on Rezwan.
他的父母说，撤离后，他们并不总是关注雷兹万。
He was the eldest of their six kids, and they expected him to help the family navigate life in the United States.
他是他们六个孩子中最大的一个，他们希望他能帮助家人适应在美国的生活。
But when Ramadan started in April, Rezwan told his mother and younger brother Emran that others made fun of him for not eating during lunch.
但当斋月四月开始时，雷兹万告诉他的母亲和弟弟埃姆兰，其他人嘲笑他在午餐时不吃饭。
Muzhda said she wasn’t sure what to do.
穆日达说她不知道该怎么办。
“I told him that if it doesn’t get better, that I’d talk to his teachers at school,” but she never did, she recalled.
“我告诉他，如果情况没有好转，我会和他学校的老师谈谈，”但她回忆道，她从未这样做过。
She said she didn’t know how to support Rezwan when he was wrestling with a system and culture so foreign to her.
她说，当雷兹万正在与对她来说如此陌生的制度和文化作斗争时，她不知道如何支持他。
She said that she wasn’t used to seeing her oldest son struggle.
她说她不习惯看到大儿子挣扎。
In Kabul, Muzhda recalled, Rezwan was happy and had no mental health issues.
穆日达回忆说，在喀布尔，雷兹万很快乐，没有心理健康问题。
“He was a good student and a good brother to his siblings.”
“他是一个好学生，也是他兄弟姐妹的好兄弟。”
But Rezwan’s problems in Missouri were getting worse.
但雷兹万在密苏里州的问题越来越严重。
“He has 3 Fs right now,” Lee wrote to RAISE’s Bridgford on April 28.
“他现在有 3 个 F，”Lee 在 4 月 28 日写信给 RAISE 的布里奇福德。
Despite Lee’s effort to flag Rezwan’s troubles, Webb City schools Superintendent Anthony Rossetti said “other than an initial visit …
尽管李努力指出雷兹万的麻烦，韦伯市学校校长安东尼·罗塞蒂表示，“除了初次拜访......
there were no other visits with the counseling team.” Nor did the school set up an alternative learning plan, despite the district allowing students to take half days or attend virtual classes.
咨询团队没有进行其他拜访。”尽管学区允许学生上半天课或参加虚拟课程，但学校也没有制定替代学习计划。
Although the school did not schedule any follow-up meetings with Rezwan’s parents, it did send them automated calls every time Rezwan was not in class.
尽管学校没有安排与雷兹万父母的任何后续会议，但每次雷兹万不上课时，学校都会向他们发送自动电话。
The same week that Lee sent an email about Rezwan’s grades, RAISE gave Lemar a questionnaire to assess how the family was doing.
在 Lee 发送有关 Rezwan 成绩的电子邮件的同一周，RAISE 给了 Lemar 一份调查问卷，以评估这个家庭的表现。
It was a survey from the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, the group that had first taken the family’s resettlement case and then subcontracted it.
这是美国难民和移民委员会的一项调查，该组织首先受理了该家庭的重新安置案件，然后将其分包。
The form had multiple-choice questions that asked whether the family had proper housing and access to food.
该表格包含多项选择题，询问该家庭是否有适当的住房和食物。
One of the questions was about mental health, offering a rating of 0 to 3.
其中一个问题是关于心理健康的，评分为 0 到 3。
Lemar circled “1,” which he explained later was a reference to his own mental health struggles.
勒马尔圈出了“1”，他后来解释说这是他自己的心理健康问题。
RAISE arranged a virtual appointment for Lemar to meet with a Dari-speaking therapist.
RAISE 为 Lemar 安排了一次虚拟预约，与一位讲达里语的治疗师会面。
The therapist recommended that the family move, Lemar recalled.
勒马尔回忆说，治疗师建议一家人搬家。
Rezwan had been begging to move since they arrived in Oronogo.
自从他们到达奥罗诺戈以来，雷兹万就一直请求搬走。
He’d set his sights on Dallas, Texas, where the Kohistanis had relatives and a larger Afghan community that had expressed a willingness to support the family.
他把目光投向了德克萨斯州的达拉斯，那里的科希斯坦人有亲戚，还有一个更大的阿富汗社区，他们表示愿意支持这个家庭。
In mid-April, Rezwan and Lemar had driven to Dallas to assess their future home.
四月中旬，雷兹万和勒马尔驱车前往达拉斯评估他们未来的家。
The trip was a success and the Kohistanis had made plans to move.
这次旅行很成功，科希斯塔人已经制定了搬迁计划。
But when Lemar told RAISE about the planned move, Newman, the group’s executive director, visited the Kohistanis at home and encouraged them to stay until the end of the school year.
但当勒马尔告诉 RAISE 计划搬迁的消息时，该组织的执行董事纽曼拜访了科希斯塔尼夫妇的家，并鼓励他们留下来直到学年结束。
“Their Welcome Team is trying to encourage them to stay,” Bridgford wrote on April 28 to Lee, Rezwan’s teacher.
“他们的迎宾团队正在努力鼓励他们留下来，”布里奇福德 4 月 28 日写信给雷兹万的老师李。
The “Welcome Team” were church volunteers organized to help the family.
“欢迎团队”是教会志愿者组织起来帮助这个家庭的。
The family had planned to move on May 4.
这家人原计划于 5 月 4 日搬家。
Instead, Rezwan arrived at school and confronted Lee to demand a new path to graduation.
相反，雷兹万到达学校并与李对质，要求采取新的毕业途径。
He insisted he was 17 years old and couldn’t spend four more years at school.
他坚称自己已经 17 岁了，不能再在学校呆四年了。
Later that day, Rezwan ate alone and texted his mother goodbye.
那天晚些时候，雷兹万独自吃饭，并给母亲发短信告别。
Rezwan’s parents were not worried.
雷兹万的父母并不担心。
They assumed he had gone to spend the night with his uncle in Joplin.
他们以为他去乔普林和叔叔一起过夜了。
Rezwan had done that a few times before.
雷兹万之前已经这样做过几次了。
Early the next morning, police received a 911 call.
第二天一早，警方接到了911电话。
A student had been found dead near the high school baseball field.
一名学生被发现死在高中棒球场附近。
The preliminary autopsy report declared Rezwan’s death a suicide, though the final report stopped short of making a definitive determination because police have yet to complete their investigation.
初步尸检报告宣布雷兹万的死亡为自杀，但由于警方尚未完成调查，最终报告未能做出明确的决定。
Rezwan was buried on May 6 after a service in the mosque outside Joplin.
雷兹万于 5 月 6 日在乔普林郊外的清真寺举行葬礼后被埋葬。
Dr. Tabassum Saba, a leader of the area’s small Muslim community, started a fundraiser for the family.
该地区穆斯林小社区的领导人塔巴苏姆·萨巴博士为这个家庭发起了一场筹款活动。
“Not everyone here is a hatemonger.
“这里并不是每个人都是仇恨煽动者。
Not everybody is KKK.
并不是每个人都是三K党。
But putting families in rural areas is going to be traumatic,” said Saba, who is a psychiatrist.
但把家庭安置在农村地区将会带来创伤，”精神病学家萨巴说。
“They would have been better off in many other places.”
“他们在其他许多地方会过得更好。”
Saba remembers seeing Rezwan's 5-year-old sister comforting Muzhda, and students from Webb City consoling Lemar.
萨巴记得看到雷兹万 5 岁的妹妹安慰穆日达，韦伯城的学生安慰勒马尔。
The few students who’d befriended Rezwan grieved.
与雷兹万成为朋友的少数学生感到悲伤。
A former classmate ran out of her classroom in tears when she saw his seat empty the next morning.
第二天早上，一位以前的同学看到自己的座位空着，泪流满面地跑出了教室。
“I think this whole thing could have been avoided if there were other Afghan kids and he had a group to be in instead of being alone,” his friend Beard recalled.
他的朋友比尔德回忆道：“我认为，如果还有其他阿富汗孩子，而且他有一群人在一起，而不是独自一人，那么这一切本来是可以避免的。”
Others were callous.
其他人则冷酷无情。
One student expressed surprise that Rezwan hadn’t died trying to “blow up the school,” multiple classmates recalled.
多名同学回忆说，一名学生对雷兹万没有在“炸毁学校”时死亡感到惊讶。
The boys who had sat at Rezwan’s lunch table before he disappeared were asked about him by investigators.
调查人员询问了雷兹万失踪前坐在他午餐桌上的男孩们的情况。
None recognized him.
没有人认出他来。
One said, “What’s a Rezwan?”
有人说：“Rezwan 是什么？”
Rossetti, the superintendent, said he’s still unsure exactly what happened to Rezwan, but he feels responsible.
负责人罗塞蒂表示，他仍然不确定雷兹万到底发生了什么，但他觉得自己有责任。
“We’re doing a lot of reflective soul-searching.”
“我们正在进行大量反思性的反省。”
He also said the school district hadn’t been given the guidance it needed.
他还表示，学区没有得到所需的指导。
“We didn’t even know what the right questions to ask were.
“我们甚至不知道该问什么问题。
We didn’t know what support or approaches we may need.
我们不知道我们可能需要什么支持或方法。
We didn’t even know if we were going to get one student or 50.”
我们甚至不知道我们会招收一名学生还是 50 名学生。”
The district has since hired a diversity coordinator and a counselor to monitor migrant students for trauma, and it’s hosting a suicide and bullying prevention workshop.
此后，该学区聘请了一名多元化协调员和一名辅导员来监测移民学生的创伤情况，并举办了自杀和欺凌预防研讨会。
Each change is a product of the district’s experience with Rezwan, Rossetti said.
罗塞蒂说，每一项变化都是该学区与雷兹万的经验的产物。
Lee, Rezwan’s former teacher who had tried to get help for him, did not want to speak about what happened.
雷兹万的前老师李曾试图为他寻求帮助，但他不想谈论所发生的事情。
“I can’t think about it.
“我无法思考这个问题。
I don’t think I can even talk about it.
我想我什至无法谈论它。
I’m trying to put it away so I can move on and try to heal,” Lee said.
我正在努力把它收起来，这样我就可以继续前进并尝试治愈，”李说。
“It was the hardest thing I’ve ever been through in my entire career.”
“这是我整个职业生涯中经历过的最艰难的事情。”
When asked whether she and the school had enough support, Lee responded, “I don’t know if I want to answer that.”
当被问及她和学校是否有足够的支持时，李回答说：“我不知道我是否想回答这个问题。”
Each entity that was tasked with taking care of the Kohistanis offered similar sentiments: They expressed sympathy for the family’s loss but took no responsibility for the difficulties the family faced.
每个负责照顾科希斯塔人的实体都表达了类似的情感：他们对这个家庭的损失表示同情，但对这个家庭面临的困难不承担任何责任。
The head of RAISE said Rezwan’s death is a tragedy, but he remains committed to the group’s expansion into refugee resettlement.
RAISE 负责人表示，雷兹万的去世是一场悲剧，但他仍然致力于该组织将业务扩展到难民安置领域。
“I’m very proud of what we’ve done.
“我对我们所做的事情感到非常自豪。
We’re very proud of Joplin.
我们为乔普林感到非常自豪。
It’s risen up,” Newman said.
它已经上升了，”纽曼说。
He and RAISE declined to answer a lengthy set of questions from ProPublica and The Kansas City Star about the group’s resettlement work.
他和 RAISE 拒绝回答 ProPublica 和《堪萨斯城之星》提出的有关该组织重新安置工作的一系列冗长问题。
The International Institute of St. Louis, whose Springfield branch passed off the Kohistanis to RAISE, was the on-the-ground entity responsible for the family.
圣路易斯国际学院（其斯普林菲尔德分校）将科希斯塔尼家族交给了 RAISE，是负责该家族的实地实体。
It had to follow federal guidelines for the resettlement of refugees, including regular performing check-ins.
它必须遵循联邦难民安置指南，包括定期进行登记。
The International Institute did not respond to detailed questions about how it handled the Kohistanis’ case and why it handed families off to an organization with no resettlement experience.
国际研究所没有回答有关如何处理科希斯坦人案件以及为何将家庭交给没有重新安置经验的组织的详细问题。
In earlier communications, the organization said it had properly handled the Kohistanis’ placement.
在早些时候的通讯中，该组织表示已经妥善处理了科希斯塔人的安置事宜。
“We made the best decision with the information and resources we had,” the Institute’s Costigan said in an interview.
该研究所的科斯蒂根在接受采访时表示：“我们利用所拥有的信息和资源做出了最佳决定。”
“RAISE said they had the housing to support large families, and that’s what this family needed.”
“RAISE 说他们有足够的住房来支持大家庭，而这正是这个家庭所需要的。”
The nonprofit originally tasked with resettling the Kohistanis, the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, also declined to address questions about its handling of the Kohistanis’ case.
最初负责重新安置科希斯塔人的非营利组织美国难民和移民委员会也拒绝回答有关其处理科希斯塔人案件的问题。
“We will not speculate on the circumstances of this tragic event to prevent further damage and pain to the Kohistani family,” it said in a statement .
该公司在一份声明中表示：“我们不会猜测这一悲惨事件的具体情况，以防止科希斯塔尼家族遭受进一步的伤害和痛苦。”
The organization noted that while “the resettlement system had been decimated,” Afghans were only placed in communities after “careful consideration and assessments involving housing, employment, transportation, school enrollment, and more.”
该组织指出，虽然“重新安置系统已被摧毁”，但阿富汗人只是在“对住房、就业、交通、入学等方面进行仔细考虑和评估”后才被安置在社区。
The federal government typically requires its main refugee partner organizations, including the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, to audit their resettlement subcontractors and ensure that refugees have been properly cared for.
联邦政府通常要求其主要难民合作伙伴组织，包括美国难民和移民委员会，对其重新安置分包商进行审核，并确保难民得到适当的照顾。
“USCRI continues to adhere to the goal of auditing all our service providers at least every three years, and we continue to achieve that aim,” said Kevin Sturtevant, a spokesperson for the organization.
“USCRI 继续坚持至少每三年对所有服务提供商进行一次审计的目标，我们将继续实现这一目标，”该组织发言人 Kevin Sturtevant 表示。
He declined to comment on plans to audit the International Institute.
他拒绝就审计国际研究所的计划发表评论。
Responsibility for resettling America’s Afghan allies ultimately falls on the Biden administration.
重新安置美国阿富汗盟友的责任最终落在了拜登政府身上。
The State Department, which oversees the placement of refugees, said in a statement :
负责监督难民安置的国务院在一份声明中表示：
“We grieve with the Kohistani family, as well as the community in Missouri who opened their arms to welcome them.” It went on to point to “a staffing shortage at many refugee resettlement agencies” and said that the government “worked closely with the resettlement agencies to address these challenges.”
“我们对科希斯塔尼一家以及张开双臂欢迎他们的密苏里州社区表示哀悼。”它接着指出“许多难民安置机构人员短缺”，并表示政府“与安置机构密切合作以应对这些挑战”。
The investigation into Rezwan’s death remains open.
对雷兹万之死的调查仍在进行中。
Webb City police have been waiting since May for law enforcement in Joplin to unlock Rezwan’s phone, which was found near his body.
自五月份以来，韦伯市警方一直在乔普林等待执法部门解锁雷兹万的手机，该手机是在他的尸体附近发现的。
(Joplin police declined to comment.) Investigators still hope to check the phone for any potential evidence.
（乔普林警方拒绝发表评论。）调查人员仍然希望检查手机是否有任何潜在证据。
“This is new territory for us,” said Webb City Police Chief Don Melton, who could not remember a time when his department was responsible for possible evidence on a locked mobile phone or had a case go on for more than five months.
韦伯市警察局长唐·梅尔顿 (Don Melton) 说：“这对我们来说是新领域。”他不记得自己的部门曾负责在锁定的手机上提供可能的证据，或者案件持续了五个多月。
Even Rezwan’s age remains a mystery to investigators.
甚至雷兹万的年龄对调查人员来说仍然是个谜。
While Rezwan’s parents and passport say he was 14, the police report noted “his real date of birth is unknown.”
虽然雷兹万的父母和护照显示他 14 岁，但警方报告指出“他的真实出生日期未知”。
The Kohistanis stayed in Missouri through the summer, awaiting word on the investigation.
科希斯塔人整个夏天都待在密苏里州，等待调查结果。
On Aug.
八月。
15, 2022, a year to the day after Kabul fell to the Taliban, they finally moved to Dallas.
2022 年 15 月 15 日，即喀布尔落入塔利班手中一年后，他们终于搬到了达拉斯。
The Kohistanis now have cousins and an extended community of other Afghans to rely on for meals, child care and guidance.
科希斯坦人现在有堂兄弟姐妹和其他阿富汗人组成的大社区，可以依靠他们提供膳食、儿童保育和指导。
And the kids are starting afresh at a school dedicated to immigrants and English language learners.
孩子们在一所专门为移民和英语学习者开设的学校里重新开始。
Lemar has had severe back pain since Rezwan’s death.
自从雷兹万去世后，勒马尔就出现了严重的背痛。
He was planning to get his trucking license, but he hasn’t.
他本来计划获得卡车运输执照，但他没有。
He has also been putting off his plans to be an Uber driver.
他还推迟了成为 Uber 司机的计划。
Instead, Lemar spends much of his time mulling over his son’s death.
相反，勒马尔大部分时间都在思考儿子的死。
Suicide is a sin in Islam, and Lemar remains convinced that Rezwan wasn’t capable of it.
在伊斯兰教中自杀是一种罪过，而勒马尔仍然坚信雷兹万没有能力自杀。
“To survive war then come to America to be buried?” Lemar said, his voice trailing off.
“为了在战争中生存下来，然后来到美国埋葬？”勒马尔的声音逐渐减弱。
“What else is there to say?
“还有什么可说的？
We are lost.”
我们迷路了。”
This story, a partnership between ProPublica and The Kansas City Star, is based on dozens of hours of interviews with the Kohistanis, other newly arrived Afghans, the local Islamic community, church volunteers, Rezwan’s classmates, school officials, law enforcement officers, employees at the International Institute and RAISE, and federal resettlement officials and experts.
这篇报道由 ProPublica 和《堪萨斯城之星》合作，基于对科希斯坦人、其他新抵达的阿富汗人、当地伊斯兰社区、教会志愿者、雷兹万的同学、学校官员、执法人员、国际研究所和 RAISE 员工以及联邦安置官员和专家进行的数十个小时的采访。
We also relied on a variety of records obtained through public records requests, including subcontracting agreements, school emails, Rezwan’s final autopsy report and video documenting his last days.
我们还依赖于通过公共记录请求获得的各种记录，包括分包协议、学校电子邮件、雷兹万的最终尸检报告和记录他最后日子的视频。
We reviewed death records, scene photos, police reports, surveillance footage from inside Webb City High School, Rezwan’s social media posts and his mobile phone data usage.
我们查阅了死亡记录、现场照片、警方报告、韦伯市高中内部的监控录像、雷兹万的社交媒体帖子以及他的手机数据使用情况。
We published photos and texts from Rezwan with the consent of the Kohistani family.
经科希斯塔尼家族同意，我们发布了雷兹万的照片和文字。
