  Prima Facie Evidence - Sometimes called presumptive evidence, uses other types of evidence gathered from a crime scene to make a plausible or reasonable assumption. Indirect or Circumstantial Evidence - It describes information that doesn't directly connect a defendant to a crime but rather implies a connection exists. (Eyewitness, Witness, Fingerprint) Physical Evidence or Real Evidence - It is a material object with a connection to the defendant's potential role in a crime. Two Types of Physical Evidence: - Individual Physical Evidence - involves pieces that are unique to a person, such as DNA or fingerprints. - Class Physical Evidence - Relates to a certain segment of the population, which may help professionals narrow down a list of suspects. Examples of class physical evidence include blood type, tire tread and weapon manufacturers. https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/career-development/different-types-of-evidence

  C is the correct answer --> Indirect or circumstantial evidence: extrapolation to a conclusion of fact

  "C" is correct By the book: There are three general types of evidence: --> Best evidence: can be presented in court in the original form (for example, an exact copy of a hard disk drive). --> Corroborating evidence: tends to support a theory or an assumption deduced by some initial evidence. This corroborating evidence confirms the proposition. --> Indirect or circumstantial evidence: extrapolation to a conclusion of fact (such as fingerprints, DNA evidence, and so on). So it could only be "A" or "C". In this case, it is obvious that the Video is NOT a best evidence.
