During trial, the police officer who questioned Mr. Drum was called to the stand. The plaintiff's attorney asks him to tell the jury what Mr. Drum told him during questioning. The defendant's attorney objects. The judge will:
a) Allow the officer to answer the question because the statement is not hearsay.
b) Order the officer not to answer the question because it calls for an out of court statement offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted.
c) Allow the officer to answer the question because the statement is within a hearsay exception.
d) Order the officer not to answer the question because what Mr. Drum told the officer after the accident is not relevant.
