Answer:

In the context of prejudice, this scenario exemplifies A. an illusory correlation.

Explanation:

An illusory correlation is a phenomenon in which variables (events, conducts, people) are believed to have a relationship even though it does not exists.

A correlation refers to the <em>connection between 2 things</em> and it is illusory because it is<em> nonexistent. </em>

This scenario exemplifies an illusory correlation because the police officers arrested Jeremiah for being close to the crime scene with a soiled baseball bat, creating the correlation between these variables.
