...and did you miss this part:

State v. Avery, 113 Mo. 475, 21 S. W. 193; Howard v. State, 34 Ark. 433; State v. Evans, 1 Marvel (Del.) 477, 41 Atl. 136; Comm. v. Webster, 5 Cush. (Mass.) 319, 52 Am. Dec. 711; Gardner v. Preston, 2 Day (Conn.) 205. 2 Am. Dec. 91; State v. Miller, 9 Houst. (Del.) 564, 32 Atl. 137.


Don't come on here with your nutria-eating, swamp-footed Napoleonic Code BS either. I am trying to cover general American Jurisprudence.

Again, using a general standard, you know that evidence, even circumstantial evidence, is admissible if it passes the 401/403 test. It's weight is determined by the factfinder. Its admissibility is NOT premissed on whether it leads to "only one conclusion."

That is nowhere to be found in any material you cited.

Circumstantial evidence can be used if it is credible and leads one to believe that only one conclusion could be reached based on the information available.


This is false. Parties argue all the time about what conclusion a factfinder should draw from circumstantial evidence. That being said, no one cares about this except me and you. I'm willing to let it go, friend.
