The correct answer is 'the subsequent evidence that surfaced proved that he was innocent'.
 
Key Points
  • The statement begins with "Although initial investigations pointed towards him", implying that there was an initial suspicion or indication of guilt.
  • The correct filler should provide a contrast to the initial suspicion, showing that the final conclusion was different.
  • Option 3 fits this context perfectly as it indicates a contradiction to the initial investigations by stating that subsequent evidence proved his innocence.

​Therefore, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.

Complete Sentence: Although initial investigations pointed towards him, the subsequent evidence that surfaced proved that he was innocent.

Additional Information
  • Option 1: the preceding events corroborated his involvement in the crime - This supports the initial investigations rather than contradicting them.
  • Option 2: the additional information confirmed his guilt - This also supports the initial investigations.
  • Option 4: he gave an open confession of his involvement in the crime - This confirms his guilt, not innocence.
