A suspect's wallet was found at the scene of crime, the evidence is better known as :

  • A.Transient evidence
  • B.Pattern evidence
  • C.Associative evidence
  • D.Conditional evidence

Answer: C

A suspect's wallet found at the scene is associative evidence.

Associative evidence links a person or object to a place, a victim or another person. A wallet carrying the suspect's documents ties him to the scene directly, which is exactly what this class of evidence does.

Transient evidence is temporary and easily lost, such as odours, temperature or wet footprints. Pattern evidence is a mark or arrangement, such as bloodstain patterns, glass fracture or tyre marks. Conditional evidence is produced by an action or event and describes the state of the scene, such as whether lights were on or doors were locked. A wallet is none of these.
