What is Opinion Evidence?

  1. Evidence found at the crime scene

  2. Evidence that has been tampered with

  3. What a witness thinks, believes, or infers regarding the facts in dispute

  4. The final verdict of a trial

The correct answer is: What a witness thinks, believes, or infers regarding the facts in dispute

Opinion evidence is a witness's personal interpretation or belief about a particular fact in a dispute. It is not physical evidence like that found at a crime scene (option A) nor is it evidence that has been tampered with (option B). The final verdict of a trial (option D) is the decision made by a judge or jury after considering all of the evidence, including opinion evidence.
