Examples Of Circumstantial Evidence

The resurrection of Jesus himself is a concept that is hard to believe. How can a man come back to life, and why is this the first time this has happened? Jesus was not written about till after his death. The gospels were told by Jesus’ apostles and their recollection of Jesus and his teachings. The Council of Nicaea were Christian theologians who decided which stories about Jesus to include in the Bible. The Council of Nicaea left out the Gnostic gospels “hidden knowledge” which talked about Jesus’s early childhood. Why should we believe the council when they left out the parts of Jesus’ life they did not agree with.“Even those whose hearts were inclined to accept the new faith required some intellectual satisfaction before they were willing to commit: How can God be three separate beings- God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit- and one indivisible being at the same time? If Jesus is “coeternal” with God, why is there no mention of him in the two thousand-year tradition of Hebrew writings? If Jesus is the divine Son of God, how could he experience such human emotions as temptation, fear, and loneliness?” 1 (pg. 229)

The British doctor, Dr. Harold “Dr. Death” Shipman was a silent killer. The law enforcement and attorneys must have evidence to convict any person in a court of law. Some of the key factors in this case appear to be circumstantial evidence and there was no forensic evidence presented. The first factor is that Harold Shipman was admitted for psychiatric treatment and a drug conviction in 1976 and the General Medical Council was aware of this serious issue. Yet, they allowed him to continue to practice without any documentation being filed, so they say, and no monitoring was implemented for Harold. Dr. Shipman established a pattern in which all of the victims were injected with morphine/heroin as a result of the coroner’s reporting.

Many people ridicule Christians for believing in a man who resurrected from the dead. They laugh at Christians and criticize them for basing their faith on an event that lack proof and evidence. However, the evidence that skeptics use to challenge the Christian faith, in actuality, support the claims that Jesus truly was the God that he claimed to be. The evidence that affirms Jesus’ claims to be true include his lifestyle and teachings, the prophecies that he fulfilled, historical facts, and the dramatic transformation of the lives of his disciples. Many may ask Christians how they can believe in a Savior without proof of his divinity; but, in reality, God has given us an abundance of signs. He is still providing us with compelling evidence

One of the main pieces of evidence used by historians when authenticating the life of Jesus Christ is the information presented by various

The Casey Anthony trial outraged the media and public when Casey Anthony was found not guilty on two counts of child neglect and murder. Casey Antony was put on trial on May 24th 2011 for the death of her daughter Caylee Anthony. From the beginning of the case all the facts seem to point to Casey Anthony, such as her lack of concern of her daughter’s whereabouts. Cindy Anthony made a call to law enforcement after picking up her car from a tow yard, which Cindy claimed reeked like human remains. The same car that Casey Anthony had abandoned in a parking lot after Caylee had been missing for about a month (Casey Anthony Biography, 2015). Caylee’s mother who failed to call police when her daughter went missing is a red flag.

Personally, I like the extral evidence, of our Lord Jesus, when he asked the Sadducees, "Have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?" (Mark 12 :26) He refers to Moses as the author of the book. I don’t think that after that there is need for further evidences. (Ch. 1 Pg. 24 & My own opinion)

Was there a demonstration by law enforcement of probable cause to stop and detain Breton Butler to show him to an eyewitness? I do no believe that probable cause was a cause for stopping and detaining Breton Butler. The reason for this would be that the officer’s only suspicion was that the young man was simply an African American. Probable cause is defined as more than bare suspicion according to the United States Supreme Court.

I think people should not be convicted with only circumstantial evidence. Most of the time people that are convicted are convicted with circumstantial evidence are innocent. My three supporting ideas are that circumstantial evidence is not enough it should be direct evidence, using circumstantial evidence will most likely convict an innocent person, and it does not point to one person or party.

There is a lot of evidence which point to the truth of Christianity. If the resurrection of Jesus truly occurred, then Jesus is God the son. If the resurrection did not occur, then he is not God the son.

With regards to tackling cases, material evidence is an immense factor. Proof is either a declaration from somebody or a physical introduction that can be utilized to help demonstrate an asserted move/event occurred. For proof to be reasonable in the official courtroom, it must be allowable. Permissible proof is any document, declaration, or solid confirmation utilized as a part of an official courtroom that is significant or solid when relating to a particular case (Tran, 2016). In the event that confirmation is not permissible, a judge won't enable it to be utilized as a part of a case.

The Scriptures also added that Jesus appeared to more than 500 people (1 Cor 15: 6-8). Furthermore, the faithfulness of the Apostles is also proof enough to convince us of the Resurrection of Jesus. The Apostles courageously proclaimed this good news without fear of death instead of fearing that they had before. The book Acts says clearly about that. Another concrete evidence is the development of Christianity.

Still, the resurrection of Jesus Christ has been under persistent attacks since the Apostolic age. Why? Because it is the central confirmation of Jesus' identity as the incarnate Son of God, and the ultimate sign of Christ's completed work of atonement, redemption, reconciliation, and salvation. Those who oppose

Evidence is the key element in determining the guilt or innocence of those accused of crimes against society in a criminal court of law. Evidence can come in the form of weapons, documents, pictures, tape recordings and DNA. According to the American Heritage College dictionary, evidence is the documentary or oral statements and the material objects admissible as testimony in a court of law (476). It is shown in court as an item of proof, to impeach or rehabilitate a witness, and to determine a sentence. This paper will examine two murder cases, O.J. Simpson and Daniel Taylor.
