A rigid and tamper evident evidence container exhibiting interconnected sides, a bottom and upwardly extending and inter-foldable flaps for sealing and holding items of evidence in a secure and documentation verifiable fashion. The rigid and corrugated material exhibits either waterproof/non-fluid absorbent or fluid absorbent properties and is particularly suited for use by law enforcement personnel in the collection of evidence for criminal prosecution. Access and tamper-evident resealing structure is located along at least one facing side of the rigid material to allow for documentable re-entry of a pre-sealed container. The tamper-evident resealing structure includes a corrugated punch out section for establishing access to previously tagged evidence, combined with an over sized rigid or flexible patch with a tacky application surface for establishing secure re-closure of the opening. An outside face of the patch exhibits indicia recordable information fields for documenting the particulars of the re-entry and subsequent tamper evident-resealing event.
