"Hearsay is a statement, other than one made by the declarant while testifying at the trial or hearing, offered in evidence to prove the truth of the matter asserted."That's pretty much the definition of hearsay.
See? Nobody is offering evidence here so it's pretty much not the definition of hearsay at all. As for the rest, those were statements said yesterday by people on the scene. From here on, why don't you go to the CSPD for your information? Done with you on this thread, you are disappointed I think.
