True. The chain of custody is a legal document that tracks every transfer of evidence, and both the sender and the receiver must record the date, time, their identities, and the condition of the evidence at the moment of transfer. This ensures a verifiable, unbroken record of who had possession of the evidence at all times, which is critical for maintaining its admissibility in court. Any gap or inconsistency in the chain of custody can lead to evidence being challenged or excluded.
