There is no record that says that he is a monster.

Question

is that+verb+that grammatically correct or does it need an alternative?

Answer 1

This is fine. The first "that" is needed to refer to the neuter object: the record. The indicative clause,"...he is a monster," is connected by the second "that," which is just a conjunction. When we speak, we often leave it out, but verbs that indicate what we are stating or thinking are correct in having the conjunction "that." Hope this helps!
