Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Circumstantial evidence, also known as indirect evidence, is evidence that does not directly prove the fact in question but instead proves another fact from which one can infer the truth of the fact in question. It is often used in criminal investigations and can be very powerful. It is not the same as hearsay evidence, which involves statements made outside of the courtroom to prove the truth of the matter asserted. People can and have been convicted on the basis of circumstantial evidence alone when it is strong enough to meet the burden of proof.
