Exercise: The Accident
Allen now calls Officer Ketchum as a witness. Officer Ketchum testifies that Bob told him at the scene that the light was red when he drove through it. Bob again objects that this is hearsay. How would you rule on Bob's objection now?
  1. Overruled. Because Bob is a party, Bob's statement is not hearsay.
  2. Sustained. The statement is hearsay.
  3. Overruled. An investigating officer may discuss what he learns in his investigation.
