Must-Known: Can Text Messages be Used as Evidence?

Text messages are used as evidence in a lot of cases. These text messages can be proven alibis to the accused and can provide key information and insight into the case. There are various instances reported by law experts about court cases.

Especially when such cases were decided based on the evidence provided by such text messages. Experts say that in order for text messages to be used as evidence, they must provide the following:

  • Relevant information to the case;
  • Not outweighed or made irrelevant by countervailing information;
  • And authenticated.

That means a few things should be visible and seen in these evidence text messages. Experts of the law say that the information that the court requires is:

  • Data and time of the messages, also known as metadata in the court;
  • Real contact information that proves the identity of the sender/receiver;
  • And proof that the messages weren't tempered.

That means saving text messages by copying them can be bad for court cases. That's why printed screenshots that show all the relevant and confirmable information should be included.
