How is disprove any less strong than deny? If anything, it would be affirm or negate an alibi.


He was just correcting your terminology. Legal English isn't English.


In legal terminology to "prove" something doesn't "indicate the truth" about something? sorry, maybe I'm confused, I guess I don't know legal lingo or am misunderstanding.


Its just your precise wording, not the gist of your comment.

Data cannot 'deny' something. Ask your coffee cup what the weather is and all you get back is silence :)
