Alison is preparing to testify in court about the results of a forensic investigation conducted after a security breach. As an expert witness, she will be sharing her interpretation of the evidence collected by others. What type of evidence will Alison be giving?
A. Hearsay
B. Documentary
C. Testimonial
D. Tangible
Correct Answer: C
Expert witness evidence is best described as testimonial evidence, where a witness is making statements about their own observations and experience. The scenario does not specify that Alison will be introducing any documents or tangible objects herself. Hearsay would only apply if Alison makes statements about what other people said to her, which is also not described in the scenario.
