BOOKED INTO EVIDENCE what does "booked into evidence" mean as in:
"A gun was booked into evidence."
most dictionaries show that "evidence" doesn't mean an evidence room.

Re: BOOKED INTO EVIDENCE It was recorded as belonging to the group of items that collectively form the evidence related to a crime.
I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
