False. The statement includes both objective elements (e.g., the lack of physical evidence as shown by medical examinations) and subjective elements (e.g., beliefs about the plaintiff’s mental anguish and the conclusion that the defendant should be found guilty). The latter parts reflect personal opinions and interpretations rather than purely objective facts.
True or false: the following is an objective statement.
Despite the plaintiff’s claims of physical abuse, medical examinations did not show any bruises, marks, injuries, or damage to his body, as shown by the hospital’s forensic and photographic evidence. However, the deep psychological scars the plaintiff will carry for the remainder of his life cannot be captured in reports and photographs. The mental anguish the plaintiff suffered leads me to believe that the defendant should be found guilty of assault.
