In a legal court case, there are several types of evidence:-

  • Demonstrative evidence: Evidence that requires a demonstration, such as a chart or a video.

  • Testimonial evidence, also called personal evidence: Evidence brought forth by witnesses, such as testimony.

  • Documentary evidence: This evidence is documents like wills, letters, and other documentation. Although also physical in type, it is sectioned in its own category.

What is the purpose of physical evidence?

  • Physical evidence aids in the solution of a case, provides an element of the crime, such as fear or force, and proves a theory in the case. Physical evidence will either prove or disprove statements of what may or may not have happened.

  • Physical evidence also places suspect in contact with a victim or victims, establish identification persons involved, can exonerate the innocent, corroborate testimony, and of course can help aid during interviews and interrogations.
