The correct answer is "All other answers are correct." Each of the specified options represents a valid exception to the hearsay rule:
- Statements made by victims of child abuse: Often considered an exception, especially if they are made to authorities or in a medical context.
- Dying declaration: This is a classic exception to the hearsay rule, applicable in both civil and criminal cases when the declarant believes they are about to die.
- Admission of a criminal act by the defendant to a witness: This is generally considered an exception as it is an admission by a party-opponent.
Therefore, all the provided options are valid exceptions to the hearsay rule.
