[The objective complement is in boldface type] "The trial ended because the defendant was adjudged insane." "In 1796, John Adams was elected President of the United States."
An objective complement is a noun or an adjective phrase that is used to further clarify some object in a sentence. It describes or renames. It is used to provide finishing information to either the direct object or the object of the preposition.

Can the objective complement of a sentence be found in a prepositional phrase?

The primary objective complement of a sentence can not be found in a prepositional phrase, but a prepositional phrase can be included in a phrase that is part of the total objective complement. For example, "John was totally lacking in judgement". The principal part of the objective complement is "lacking", but the complete objective complement is "totally lacking in judgement", which includes the prepositional phrase "in judgement".
