At an alleged suicide case, the door was found open, the evidence of this kind is better known as :

  • A.Associative evidence
  • B.Transfer evidence
  • C.Depicting evidence
  • D.Conditional evidence

Answer: D

A door found open is conditional evidence.

Conditional (or transient) evidence records the state of things at the scene as found: whether doors and windows were open or locked, lights on or off, the temperature of food or coffee, the smell of smoke or perfume, the position of the body. Such conditions can change quickly once people arrive, so the first officers must note and photograph them.

Transfer evidence is material exchanged between people and places, such as fibres and blood. Associative evidence links a suspect or object to a scene or victim, and 'depicting evidence' is not a standard category.
