Question

Mr. Herring was found shot dead in his backyard. He was about a foot away from his back porch, lying next to his personal handgun. A bloody footprint was also found on the porch. Analysis of a bullet found nearby suggests that, based on the striation marks, the bullet that killed Herring came from a gun discarded in a nearby trash can. He apparently had a date that night with Mrs. Scarlet. Based on various evidence, the forensics team also created a digital rendering of the crime.
For this story, what would be an example of documentary evidence?

A.) The blood samples collected at a scene
B.) The audio recording of the police interrogation
C.) Fingerprints collected off of the discarded gun
D.) The footprints found in the backyard soil
