Evidence is a real word with an actual definition

“Evidence: an item or information proffered to make the existence of a fact more or less probable. Evidence can take the form of testimony, documents, photographs, videos, voice recordings, DNA testing, or other tangible objects.”

It, not-literally, kills me when I hear or read people describing other people’s testimony (that being “oral or written evidence given by the person…”) as though it was not actual evidence. If a person’s story is provided under oath or during a legal proceeding then that story IS evidence. So, people’s stories – like Ryan Graves, David Grusch, and David Fravor, ARE EVIDENCE. Literally.

And anyone who swears their story to be true (and literally means it) is, essentially, the same.
