拒绝透露金币的地理位置的深海寻宝者的判决已由法官结束

汤米·汤普森（Tommy Thompson）自2015年以来一直被蔑视。他的案件源于他发现中美洲的党卫军中美洲时，被称为“黄金之船”，当它沉没时，它有数千磅的黄金。

A former deep-sea treasure hunter who has served nearly a decade in jail for refusing to disclose the whereabouts of missing gold coins has had that term ended by a federal judge in Ohio, but he will remain behind bars for now.

一位前深海寻宝者，因拒绝透露失踪金币的下落而在监狱中服刑近十年，该任期以俄亥俄州的一名联邦法官结束，但他现在将留在监狱里。

U.S. District Judge Algenon Marbley agreed Friday to end Tommy Thompson's sentence on the civil contempt charge, saying he “no longer is convinced that further incarceration is likely to coerce compliance.”

美国地方法院法官阿尔根农·马布利（Algenon Marbley）周五同意结束汤米·汤普森（Tommy Thompson）对民事蔑视指控的判决，称他“不再确信进一步的监禁可能会迫使遵守。”

However, he also ordered that the research scientist immediately start serving a two-year sentence he received for a related criminal contempt charge, a term that was delayed when the civil contempt term was imposed.

但是，他还命令研究科学家立即开始服刑两年徒刑，以判处相关的罪名指控，这一任期被延迟了，这一任期被推迟了。

Thompson has been held in contempt of court since Dec. 15, 2015, and also incurred a daily fine of $1,000. In his ruling, Marbley assessed Thompson's total civil contempt fine at $3,335,000.

汤普森自2015年12月15日以来一直在蔑视法院，也因每日罚款1,000美元。在他的裁决中，Marbley评估了汤普森的民事鄙视罚款，定为3,335,000美元。

Thompson's case dates to his discovery of the S.S. Central America, known as the Ship of Gold, in 1988. The gold rush-era ship sank in a hurricane off South Carolina in 1857 with thousands of pounds of gold aboard, contributing to an economic panic.

汤普森（Thompson）的案子可以追溯到他在1988年发现的中美洲（被称为黄金船）的发现。1857年，戈德拉什时代的船在南卡罗来纳州的一场飓风中沉没在飓风中，上面有数千磅的黄金船，这有助于经济恐慌。

Despite an investor lawsuit and a federal court order, Thompson still won't cooperate with authorities trying to find 500 coins minted from some of the gold, according to court records. He has previously said, without providing details, that the coins — valued at about $2.5 million — were turned over to a trust in Belize.

根据法庭记录，尽管有投资者诉讼和联邦法院命令，但汤普森仍然不会与试图从某些黄金中找到500枚硬币的当局合作。他此前曾说过，没有提供细节，这些硬币（价值约为250万美元）被移交给了伯利兹的信托。

After Thompson failed to appear for a 2012 Ohio hearing to discuss the coins, U.S. marshals eventually tracked him to Florida in 2015 and arrested him. He pleaded guilty in April 2015 to skipping that hearing and was given the two-year prison sentence.

汤普森未能参加2012年俄亥俄州的听证会来讨论硬币之后，美国元帅最终于2015年追踪他到佛罗里达州并逮捕了他。他于2015年4月认罪，以跳过该听证会，并被判处两年徒刑。

Federal law generally limits jail time for contempt of court to 18 months. But a federal appeals court in 2019 rejected Thompson's argument that law applies to him, saying his refusal violated conditions of a plea agreement.

联邦法律通常会将con视时间限制为18个月。但是，2019年的联邦上诉法院驳回了汤普森的论点，即法律适用于他，称他的拒绝违反了认罪协议的条件。
