I’m torn between A and D. I know A talks about not altering evidence, but D sounds like it could be a reason too. What do you all think?

I think the key here is that the chain of custody is about establishing the evidence hasn't been changed or messed with. So A seems like the best answer to me.

Okay, for this type of question, I'd focus on the wording of the options. Maintaining the chain of custody is all about being able to show the evidence hasn't been altered, so I'd go with option A.
