美国联邦法庭开审中国驻旧金山总领馆纵火案|美国|法庭|开审_新闻资讯
中新社旧金山1月7日电 (记者 刘丹)当地时间7日上午，美国联邦法院北加州地区法庭开庭审理中国驻旧金山总领馆纵火案。涉嫌在元旦夜间向中国驻旧金山总领事馆正门泼汽油点火的中国籍男子冯严丰出庭，由翻译和律师陪同，过程大约一分钟，下次审理定在1月15日。
当天上午约9时30分，中新社记者进入位于旧金山市金门大街450号联邦大楼15楼E法庭，所有人进入法庭被要求不得照相，关闭手机。
当天E法庭审理数个案件，冯严丰被安排在第3个出庭。
约9时52分，法官伊莉萨白-拉波特出现，至9时58分左右，两个案件的当事人和律师结束退庭。
约9时59分，庭审人员宣布冯严丰到庭。穿红色短袖囚衣的冯严丰由两名法庭安全人员带入法庭，他身材瘦小，头发略卷曲及肩，双脚行动缓慢，中新社记者无法看清他是否带有脚镣。
法庭为冯严丰指定了一名法庭翻译和公共辩护律师。当拉伯特法官与律师斯蒂夫-考拉尔简单对话时，站在冯严丰身旁的女翻译用普通话为其翻译。
整个庭审过程持续约1分钟，法官与律师的对话低沉不宜听清。拉波特法官与考拉尔商定下次出庭时间为1月15日。
冯严丰有时将右手抱着左手，有时双手垂下，其间只说了一句英文Yes。
庭审结束后，媒体等候在法庭门外，堵住律师考拉尔，试图询问案件详情。考拉尔只说出自己的名字拼写及公共辩护律师的身份，拒绝回答问题，匆匆离去。
中新社记者查询后得知，考拉尔是位于旧金山的美国联邦法院北加州地区法庭公共辩护律师。美国的公共辩护律师通常由法庭指定，代理那些无力聘请律师的人。
39岁的帝力市居民冯严丰2004年获得美国绿卡。元旦夜间21时25分，他在中国驻旧金山总领馆正门泼汽油点火，造成正门、国徽、标志牌、石狮子和墙面严重损毁。
