Re: affidavit/discovery package

An affidavit is simply a version of a story or a statement of a specific fact that is signed by a police officer or a civilian that swears that what they wrote is true and correct to the best of their knowledge.

Discovery is any all reasonably related information regarding your case. Including affidavits, warrants, medical records, chemical analysis. Discovery is far more complicated than this brief answer, but I hope this helps.
