"Inferred" is the correct past tense form of "infer," which means to deduce or conclude from evidence or reasoning. This fits the context of the sentence, as the judge's words suggest that she drew a conclusion from the evidence given by the witness. "Implied" (A) is the past tense form of "imply," which means to suggest without being explicitly stated, and doesn't quite fit here. "Got" (B) is too informal and doesn't convey the meaning as well as "inferred." "Implyed" (C) is not a valid word.
