[Defeat]

On the topic of legally binding documents, I recall reading that police reports are not admissible in court is that true as well in the US? @mothered So basically if a company is requesting a police report for a DNA you can safely make one and not worry about it being held against you. I was surprised by this so I wanted to clarify if that is the case or not. Thanks!

The legal system Is complex, and differs from one location to another.

Generally speaking, a police report Is Inadmissible In court on the grounds that "you do not have knowledge of the asserted fact". Simply put, In the case of the DNA method, you're signing the report based on the fact that you have "no knowledge that the package was delivered".

I've heard it's extremely rare for a police department to ever chase a falsified report which is a crime in itself (regardless of the crime) even if they know it is. I assume due to the limited resources of most DPs
