Amen. I’ve read that in America, in excess of 80% of criminal convictions are the result of self incrimination. It is a compelling evidence that criminals are idiots that they subject themselves to police interrogation rather then invoking their civil rights to protect themselves from these techniques.
_Mr. Hughes, I would dearly love to answer your questions-and please believe me, I DO want to answer your questions-however, I'm simply not allowed to do that in the absence of my attorney. With that in mind, do I need to go ahead and contact him?_ (End of interrogation.)
That instance of asking what punishment should be applied to a guilty party is right out of Shakespeare’s “Richard III”. Who said he wasn’t relevant today? 😂
True story. When my daughter was about 5, she cut her name into our coffee table. When I asked her about it, she said our cat id it! I said, that's great! Imagine how much we can get for a cat that can spell and carve wood. She immediately panicked and confessed because she loved our cat.
My sister did something similar. She took a hammer and hit it against the porcelain sink in the bathroom. These were cast-iron covered with porcelain so it just chipped off the porcelain in a few places. Mom and dad ask both myself and my two sisters if they knew anything that had happened. Me and my older sister just said no. My youngest sister was probably about the same age, somewhere around five, and she “Pal do it”. Actually Bal do it.” Pal was our dog.. My parents started saying how that’s too bad because they really like how this looks and I guess they won’t be able to get Pal to do it again. After a little bit of conversation like this, my sister suddenly waddled off over to the cabinet in the bathroom, grabbed a hammer, and came waddling back saying”Bal not do it. I do it. I do more.”
That is "laughing out loud" hysterical. I don't have kids of my own but from 1966 to 1971 I did childcare for millionaire families in Manhattan the night the regular Nanny was off and I can just imagine one of these kids reacting like that.
@@Alosipher Not sure what the exact law is in your country but I’m in EU Ireland you need to sign the witness statement. If unsigned it’s not a (statement) i judge will prosecute the police for wasting his time. 😂
Just like every interrogation instructor who thinks he's got it figured out, he's biased in interpreting stress as guilt. If the suspect doesn't trust you, or if you're interrogating them very harshly, you're going to see "Desdemona's fear." They know they didn't do it, but they're scared that they can't convince YOU that they didn't do it. They fear that they're going to be punished for something they didn't do. That can produce real terror that's every bit as stressful as guilt, and that will look like guilt if all you're looking for is signs of stress and calling it evasiveness.
Good point. I used to do entrance exam interviews for a college in Europe (23 years, thousands of candidates) as well as did thousands of oral exams for classes. I saw candidates trembling with stress. They were afraid of making mistakes and failing. Sometimes a rumor went around that all the places had been filled and we were just going through the motions of interviews and candidates were angry and defensive and stressed. Once someone started the rumor that a certain number of students had already failed the written part of the college's final leaving exam and taking the oral exams would be pointless for them. This was not true. Nobody had failed the written exam. But as the day went on and more and more students passed, the waiting students thought that they must be in the pool of students who had failed. We had students who were refusing to be interviewed because they were sure they had failed. The stress levels were going through the roof as the day went on and we interviewed more people. We had no idea why the students were increasingly insisting, "I know I've failed; just tell me." They were so anxious that they did much worse on the exam than if they had not heard the false rumor that "seven people failed." It's so true that innocent people can be terrified of a police interview. I've watched enough documentaries about the falsely convicted that I fear falling into the hands of the police and being questioned.
You've missed the point. If someone is afraid immediately that they'll be punished regardless, that fear will be there from the beginning and be their baseline response to the questions. In applying stress, he's looking for changes in behavior. If the person continues to be afraid at the same level, they're probably innocent. If the questions he's asking causes behavior changes, that's when he starts to think they might be guilty. Someone who is innocent and afraid of getting punished regardless won't change their behavior because they're going to have that same fear throughout. Someone who is afraid because they are guilty will get more nervous when stress is applied because they think the other person has evidence. An innocent person isn't going to think they have real evidence because there is none; their fear is irrational and so doesn't change in any observable way.
@@xzonia1 I think you have missed the point. People's reactions don't fit in a neat little box like you describe and can't be accurately read by an outside observer.
Working in mental health tells me just some of those questions will make anxious and paranoid people react very differently even when innocent. However, when talking to employees or kids this advice is generally spot on.
Your totally spot on about people with anxiety,a things associated with that ,but me rage can effect a answer from me. Example ,if I'm full of rage but still trying to be polite but then get asked a very serious set of questions from the 1st answer to the 2nd and 3rd can become very diffrent. So if I get asked a serious (or not ) question and I respond ten the person jokingly questions my integrity I'm likely to blow my cool. And it's the same if the person's asking me say they've had money stolen from them ill probably answer (depending on who it is) twice before my temper gets the better ogmf me. Then the money could be fine ,then there's other questions in "this convoy " but I'm still full of rage the same thing will happen. So people don't think for 1 second that this is 100% set in stone the way to look for a liar because if that was true I'd be a liar 75% of the time
@@morgantnelson I think you missed curtisbottoms' point. If people are naturally anxious, the 'bait' question will make them give an anxious answer, even if they are innocent. That's not a way of finding a culprit. There are countless examples of people sentenced for crimes they didn't commit just because they seemed nervous, or didn't respond in an expected way to questioning, and later were proved to be innocent.
😂 No worries. Context and clusters. Trained "professionals" will most likely be able to pick up the "clusters" of indicators that expose you as an anxious type as opposed to a person being intentionally deceptive.
This is some bs to say someone is lying when their behavior changes when questions get harder. It’s natural for everyone to get nervous when an absolute stranger and someone who has the power to destroy their life starts asking hard questions.
There was a fella that used to turn up and inspect our sites when I was working years ago. Nice guy, well mannered etc. but he would ask a question and then just watch you. I would always end up babbling to try and fill the empty space he was leaving. When I'd ran out of waffle he would just hold a steady gaze as if waiting for the rest. I'd end up feeling guilty for crimes I'd not even thought of! Guy would make a _brilliant_ interrogator. Once you start getting self conscious and second guessing your behavior it all starts to snowball out of your control - even if you aren't actually being deceptive. So if you are, you really have to be somewhere on the psycho spectrum to hide it effectively.
Deadass, a guy pinpoint-attacked my sexual insecurities "as a joke" and when I got upset about it, he them lectured me about how I have unresolved anger issues, which I do, and how he knows this because he knows people and can read the signs of their behavior. So I was like "So you didn't accidentally piss me off--- You were triggering me on purpose." Deadass he was like "Hey, uh, I didn't know like that, that-- that's not the point" Should've punched him.
Of course people will react differently when the questions get harder. Also, being accused of something you didn't do makes you become angry and/or nervous.
People don't like to be accused of something they didn't do..and they get angry..that's expected..it's when you don't get angry when falsely accused that is the tell
My dad used these methods on us when we were kids. Since I was there when the crime was committed, I know he was only getting it right 2 out of 3 times. The rest of the time my dad got it wrong and the wrong person got blamed and was pushed into a confession for a lighter sentence. I was always nervous when being questioned because (just like the police) my dad can make a mistake and I will have to pay for that mistake. This guy says there is no reason for the innocent to be nervous but that just isn't true.
How many times has this expert got it wrong? Probably never in his opinion. Such confidence in his own ability. I am feeling the pain and anguish of the innocent peoples lives he has destroyed. This man feels none of this,or he does,and enjoys it. I'm sure he gets it right occasionally though
Some cops like to act like you're murderer and trying to make you nervous stressed to the highest lvl to say something they could use it against you to write report that you're murderer to close case and get prizes from it, not like they wanna find real murderer. Us cops ate well known for acting like that. Acting like they wanna destroy you do you will sign papers to not being bullied by them longer.
"If you are innocent, that won't cause you any stress." I've been falsely accused, hard to recall anything more stressful than having no idea about what you are being accused of. This is abusive tactics, and the stuff police are trained to say to convince juries it isn't coercive. There is no condition where an innocent being interrogated isn't stressful. There is no circumstance one should voluntarily sit for an interrogation or interview with law enforcement, and instead one should rely on rights against self incrimination while refusing to participate without council. The deck is stacked, and his lie about "causing no stress to the innocent" is all the proof necessary to show it.
Lawyer, lawyer, lawyer!! Whether you are guilty or innocent. These investigators are not your friends they are not trying to help you. Your cooperation will not reduce your sentence. Get a lawyer immediately!!
I watched a video probably still on RUclips now where a lawyer talks about this kind of situation exactly. And he says exactly what you are saying, don’t say anything, get a lawyer immediately. Specially if you’re innocent. He gave one example where an acquaintance of a murdered person was brought into the police station. The man was innocent and talked freely to the police and during that conversation he said just one negative thing, that he didn’t like him sometimes. Eventually this man was arrested for the murder and during the trial the policeman who talked about the interview mentioned that one sentence only that he didn’t like him sometimes. And the rest of the one hour interview where the man was saying good things about this person who was killed was not mentioned at all.
It's a method of manipulation. Works sometimes, too. Especially if you sneak in some actual tricks which cause them to reveal information that they otherwise shouldn't have.
Or they will use ancient war time interrogation tactics... Depravation of sleep. Constant badgering, telling you false facts related to case to get you to tell your side of the story. They're allowed by law and expected to lie to solve the crime . YOU ARE NOT AND IT WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU IN A COURT OF LAW. Simple solution to situation... Say NOTHING. .Your lawyer wil thank you!!! Say NOTHING TO NO ONE Until you see in person a lawyer. Cops are trained to take any one sentence you may say and twist the words around to say the opposite of what was meant. They are not your friend.. And say false promises (ex: plea deals/set people up in exchange for reduced or dropping your charges). You are not paid to do a cops job.
If a nosy, rude narc interrogating me, asking intrusive, bs questions, there’s going to be a “ big pile of changes” in my behavior. These days, I just walk away, instead of trying to explain to a narc anything. Smh, I fed up with those experts
What? Why malignant? So you can tell by this short clip that he's a narcissist, huh? You must have a large ego yourself to make such a bold claim based on hardly any evidence. Practice what you preach.
They want their job to be streamlined. They want clear answers to take back to their bosses, true or not. After a long enough time, they probably lose sight of what's obvious to us.
Actually, I'm of the opinion that a narcissist could ace the interview. Psychologists say they reinvent themselves and in their mind they didn't do it. They can also pass lie detector tests (not that those are considered dependable).
Exactly why you invoke the 5th and 6th immediately, and don't answer ANY questions.. Maybe you'll blink twice instead of once and this guy decides you're lying.
@@johndrake3472 You commented on a video he was in talking about how he interrogates people, and yet you claim to not care.... yeh maybe you should say nothing online also
This guy has confirmation bias of his own abilities. People respond to stress very differently. Some people get enraged when accused of something they didn't do, like murder.
The fact that you suspect my being guilty of a crime by the manner in which you are questioning me, would make me very nervous and would probably make me start fidgeting or breathing faster although i'm innocent. I once failed a polygraph test because of this, and got blamed for something I would never do.
This won't work with people who make false confessions as a result of getting an earful of abuse every day of their life since the day they were born. They're just going to take punishment after punishment that they don't deserve because everything was always their fault.
I've been a professional investigator and interviewer for over 30 years. I've never allowed anyone to falsely confess to something they didn't do. One of the best ways to establish that the confession is true-is to have the suspect walk me through what they did, how they did it, when, how many times, dollar amounts, specific items taken, etc. I also don't accept responses like;, 'If you said I did it, then I guess I did it'.
@@ellenritt5564 Those teens were interrogated for 7 hours. The interrogations were not videotaped, only their confessions, so very suspect as to how the detectives were able to elicit these confessions.
If someone asks me a personal question that is attached to distress or emotional pain, I do get uncomfortable and change my behavior. I can't help it. I see this in others, too. The response is due to unexpected discomfort, or just discomfort. It doesn't mean the person is about to lie every time 😕
no one gets convicted for being nervous. All he's doing is ascertaining if it's worth investigating a person or they can be safely removed from a list of suspects. And if there's overwhelming evidence of guilt that surfaces in the interrogation, they might press for confessions, a slam dunk for them and for the court, or at least know where to focus resources to get material evidence and witnesses.
I’m a retired federal agent and have had extensive training and experience in interrogations. I learned both of those lines of questioning more than 40 years ago. I can assure you they work.
I'll say it again to you two because it was deleted. Which, by the way, supports my point. If your plan to be successful is to manipulate others, I have some really bad news for you.
I had severe social anxiety all through my twenties and into my thirties. I would blush, stammer and some times soak my shirt with sweat if I felt trapped..........the idea of sitting in an interrogation room being asked leading questions would damn near trigger a heart attack! I guess in this guy's eyes, I'd be guilty on all counts......
Every educated and compassionate person of faith would answer the "punishment" question like that..correct behavior, help them change the behavior, to heal
This guy is wrong thinking that if you're innocent that you won't be nervous about being questioned, I damn near have a heart attack just seeing police cars/lights or store alarms go off.
No - what pumps people up is the possibility of being punished no matter what. This guy is just good at selling himself to whoever thinks he has found a sensation.
When my daughter was small a glass of beer on the kitchen table was mysteriously emptied. My daughter was asked "Did you drink what was in that glass?" "No daddy" lied my daughter. "Oh thank goodness! That was poison!" "WAH! I don't wanna die!" Right.
Due to people I hung around with I have been interrogated more than a few times. Every time I was completely in the dark about what they were asking me about. Not a clue, no idea at all. Regardless the various Interrogators were 100% certain I was guilty, involved or knew something. Ridiculous waste of time. Not impressed!
If a person with coin, connections, crews, clout, corrupt cronies, and other shady jabronies wants to make you seem guilty, brother... there is NOTHING you can do. You'd be goin' down like The Hurricane. No legit evidence required; they'd just cook it up, baby. 😂
Excellent. I have watched and listened to Chase previously, on another channel working in conjunction with three other professionals, and found him easy to equate with. End of the day, in my opinion, if you have committed a wrong-doing and are caught bang to rights, it is always best to "man-up" and go "hands-up". I lied to my Mother in 1965. I was five years old. I thought I'd conviced Mum with my lie and dodged the cane behind the kitchen door when Dad got home from work: wrong. Mum craftily set the punishment up. Cutting it short, a Dettol soaked and lightly squeeze rag leaves a particularly foul taste; for hours. Short sharp shock. No more lies from Timmy boy. I have subscribed to your channel with pleasure. Thank you both.
The truth may not be "automatic", but it's not nearly as taxing on one's memory and mental processing as deception tends to be. The questions are rather automatic, pretty standard in format and techniques. Like with anything else, more experience begets proficiency.. They ask questions and listen to answers. A lot. Calculating "right" or "believable" answers, coming up with a litany of excuses, and remembering any number of various medical/mental conditions, can be quite the chore. Yeah, if one is nervous, they may flub a couple three lines of their script. Although, it's typically not the nervous that's an issue, .
The cognitive overload method is excellent because it is a simple concept and once you detect mistakes you can focus on the mistakes. The problem with the skill of detecting deception is it is very easy to detect deception if you know what to look for but if you are not a detective there is not alot you can do with the information unless you want to destroy relationships to get the truth.
Easy way to spot someone who is lying - when they sit and tell you that they can spot people lying. Here especially, imagine being asked where you live and how many brothers and sisters you have, and then later a question you immediately know means the 2 guys in the room suspect you of committing a serious crime. And you think you wouldn't change how you answer that latter question? Of course you'll change, you'll realise the cops suspect you. Whether you did the crime or not you're going to be careful what you say because you know they're filming and recording your answers and if can they can show one tiny aspect of your answer isn't true they'll be claiming that's because you're lying etc etc. That's why the smart person never talks to the police and asks for a lawyer - whether they are guilty or not - because all the police are trying to do is convict you. Whether you are guilty or not. The pressure on them is to secure a conviction for their stats and they don't care at al who that is. And this 'raising the stakes" is what ranges from mild threats to torture - and it's well established that people don't tell the truth under duress - they will confess to crimes they have not done and could not have done. All the US cops do is to have legalised duress to make it sound like it's an 'interrogation technique', sure they're not pulling out fingernails but the whole objective is to get innocent or guilty people to confess. The notion that if you didn't kill someone you'd just nonchalantly sit there while a cop subtly threatens you or implies they have evidence linking you to a murder and only the killer would get stressed is laughable nonsense. This is how you spot a liar - the guy is sitting there waving his hands spouting complete and total horseshit. You should be much more wary of the person who answers the questions the same - because that likely means they either lack emotion, and/or they've rehearsed their answer. People who tell you they know if someone is lying from observing them are lying. That's how you spot a liar. People who claim to be able to do something that you can easily demonstrate in a double-blind experiment they actually have no more ability to do above chance - in the past that used to be psychics and other charletons. Now it's people claiming to use 'body language' to detect lying - they're trying to put a scientific spin on it - but it doesn't work.
At 3:14: If you are not the killer that question won't cause you any stress. If you are a suspect it WILL cause you stress. Innocent people have been imprisoned for decades I know that is rare, but at the time of questioning, an innocent person is suddenly in a very unfamiliar situation where the stakes have been raised enormously.
I’d be nervous because I don’t know who lied to you about me, and now you’re operating with the cognitive bias that I’m the perp. Investigations are basically garbage in garbage out situations.
You shouldn't have to 'bait' someone. If they're guilty of something, there's evidence of that, if there's not enough evidence, the police aren't doing their job well enough. I've always thought cops baiting suspects was very manipulative.
I disagree, some people get scared or have been accused of things even when they didn't do it and have a guilt complex. Some people get nervous and may appear to look guilty, even when they are not.
this is why you never engage or speak a single word to these investigators. They are experts at the highest level and you don't stand a chance. ALWAYS have a lawyer. Period.
This is why you always ask for a lawyer and then invoke your right to remain silent. Or if not under arrest, simply ask, "am I being detained? Am I allowed to leave?" If the answer is yes, simply leave without saying a word. Never talk to the police.
I feel guilty about everything. Indont know if this would work. Plus I'm very literal. If he asked me, "Is there any reason . . ." Ibwould immediately start thimking of reasons someonebwould say sumthin untrue and I know I would look guilty.
2:49 This one really brought me back. I got called in on a Monday after some drunken college mischief. The Dean said what Chase just said pretty much word for word. Then he asked me a funny question about a minor detail of my prank and burst out laughing.
"Are you recording this? Please do. I do not consent to any unlawful search or seizures, and I invoke my right to remain silent until I speak with my attorney".
My dad was in the military when I was little and he would try those same tactics on me. When those didn’t work, physical torture was next. I don’t trust this guy and I bet his kids don’t like him either.
Right I agree with this…. there are multiple things to look at to determine lies and half truths etc…. How else can you determine what to ask an individual and up the stakes as stated here. ❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽
This what I do as a psychologist; we ask questions regarding context and within timelines, while doing congruence and 'ecology testing' the entire time.
I read a while back that statistically the people who are best at detecting liars are often the worst at believing people who are telling the truth. Oh well...
Unless you're joking, that might be because liars use skills to appear as truth tellers, while truth tellers are merely genuine. So someone who appears truthful is either truthful or the best liar they've encountered. Detecting liars is spotting failures in the skills they use to appear truthful. It's also a small part of how liars and other broken people turn you into them, by forcing you to deal with their toxicity you end up a kind of toxic yourself.
@@xyaeiounn There's considerable difference between habitual, chronic and pathological liars. Some lie occasionally or strategically. Some lie to manipulate, some are just scared to be honest. Many types of lies and liars.
@@wangobadankas4038 Sure. Then there are those weird types who live in constant certainty, they have all the answers, are never wrong, and can be as lethal to you as any devious person.
Q. Is there any reason someone would say they saw your car outside the robbed grocery store? A. Well yeah, my ex is always trying to get me in trouble. And her mother hates it that I have custody of the kids.
Confirmation bias in action. If you expect everything to indicate a lie, everything looks like a lie. What you need is objective evidence that has nothing to do with what the person is saying, or how they are saying it.
Well austics, people who are naturally restless or people adhd. These mental conditions makes an interrogators job next to impossible to do without getting sued compared with the average population.
Sometimes I tell someone something and I feel like I'm suddenly nervous and giving indicators that I'm lying, but I'm actually not. How does that come into play?
That means you'll be questioned longer. And eventually the truth will probably reveal itself and that's when you get to go. Like Japanese Americans in ww2 held in camps then released after the war was over.
A friend's children denied writing on the living room wall. It carried on and one day she spoke aloud while they were in the room "Mmm, i wonder who wrote this, the letter A is written so perfectly." Her daughter proudly stated "That was me." So my friend shouted "Well dont do it any more! " culprit caught.
If I spilled milk on the carpet, I'd say "lawyer". Don't care if I did it or not. This guy is a monster. Subjective observation to ruin lives is predatory, and his little "cute anecdote" with his own children shows that. Good grief. 1 in 10 of us are psychopaths.
Asking opening " harmless " questions like what's your name where do you live and work etc is to establish a baseline of behaviour and voice-tone and to set it against the real questions about the " crime " when they are not stating facts as they did previously but are now having to lie and state " untruths " about what actually happened.
The easiest way to spot if a man is lying is if he answers YOUR question with a question of his own, thereby giving him valuable seconds to formulate an answer he thinks/knows will placate you (ie get you off his back). My ex did this all the time. It would go: ME: “We’ve been dating 4 years - are you still not thinking you ought to divorce your wife? HIM: “What do you mean?” ME: “It’s an easy question.” HIM: “Depends on how you look at it.” And so on. See what he did - he deflected the question so I’d have to repeat it several times (getting angrier), then he’d storm off to the pub knowing that when he returned I’d be in a huff and we’d go to bed angry (and not talking!). He was VERY clever.
Looking away is a "tell"? If I'm bothered or annoyed at someone, I stare them down... because I'm (in my head) imagining what bad evil things I want to do to you. I'm not a Bad Guy, but thoughts happen. Better to think it, than to do it.
One place the "what do you think should happen to the person who is guilty?" question is answered differently is when you're speaking with someone who is a posturer. Someone who is filled with bravado and fully believes he's gotten away with his crime will often say "throw the book at the person... do your worst... make sure they never see the light of day!" There was a YT vid a while ago where a judge asked that question of a guy who killed a child. The guy started speaking in that manner ("throw away the key", "bury him in jail", etc). So the judge gave him the punishment as the guy said - put him in jail for life.
@@madhuzeeuwen6376 He was found guilty by a jury and by the judge. Look up Chris McNabb. He abused his wife, fed her meth and killed his 2 week old. Then told the judge that there was no evidence that could prove he was the one who did it. After the judge asked what sentence the real killer should get, he gave Chris what he answered: "the max sentence... life... throw away the key." He was sentenced to life without parole, plus 10 years.
THe context of the question can promote a change. Example, how was your journey that's a nice tie where did you get it I like it. How is the weather in your part of town. What did you eat for breakfast. Then did you do the murder????. well it's obviously not going to be answered in the nonchalant manner as the other questions is it. This does not imply deception. It is going to be a very anxious question irrespective of innocence or guilt. Conclusion the question changes the mood not necessarily a deception
This only works if you assume that the individual is free of all mental, cognitive, or mental issues that affect their level of comfort in stressful situations.
If the interrogator is a narc, then you can bet I will be anxious, stressed, nervous, unstable, hypervigilant, confused, easily manipulated, super sensitive. Some of us feel guilt whether it is valid or not. I just hope I'm never questioned for anything! 😮
i was onboard until he said "if you're innocent you wont" people with high anxiety and people with poor social skills often confess to crimes they didn't commit, so will people who have been sleep deprived or otherwise neglected or tortured thats why torture isnt allowed to be used as evidence and coercion against the law. there are no absolutes when it comes to people because mental states are important, and people who talk in absolutes think or act as though they have all the answers when no one does or can.
What he didn’t do, because he doesn’t know, is calibration. Before you can judge someone by their mannerisms, you first need to know what they are and aren’t and that takes a very long time to do and under many different circumstances. Do you always feel the same? Do you always react the same way to the same thing? He says you do!
I was a corporate attorney for my whole career. When I wanted to interview an important witness about a "big" issue I would start small and have the witness bring related documents like expense reports or travel logs or contact logs "for background" to establish a base line. Then slowly I would get into the heart of the interview. If I had evasion issues with the baseline -- I knew I had some real trouble!!!!
If I was being interrogated and heard "I like you as a person...", my BS meter would instantly peg. I would also know that they didn't have solid evidence to connect me to the crime and that they are fishing for a confession. Otherwise I would have been charged and arrested. It's not as though I'm a ne'er-do-well. It's just common sense. However, I have known some criminal types throughout my life and intellectual adroitness wasn't their strong suit.
Good tips, but no system is foolproof. There are general patterns to behavior, but not everyone fits these patterns. The techniques described here are a good starting point and useful during interrogation.
I was a nanny for a policeman of 13 years. Of course I had to talk to him. He had a camera in every room and outdoors. I worked for him for 5 years and he trusts me implicitly.
I have been questioned by the police in an interrogation room, being recorded. Every question they asked I assumed they were studying me to see if I was being deceitful. I was aware of the techniques they were using because I had been trained to evaluate body language in my career. I was formally trained by the US Army, in the art of deception as a member of the ASA and we'll leave it at that. So, during this interrogation I was stoic, unmovable and never took my eyes off the person asking the questions almost a dead stare. Most questions I turned around and restated them to the person questioning me. i.e. If I understand you correctly, you're asking ..........they stopped this about 5 questions in the questioning. The conclusion was that I had been professionally trained & dismissed me from the interrogation with a series of threats. The truth was that I was out of town during the time a crime was committed about 1000 miles from the event unbeknownst to them. Someone told them I was involved in this crime, and they were fishing, it was a family member who actually did the crime not me, but they were told I had directly contributed to the crime that went down. Needless to say, they eventually gave up and realized I was not going to cooperate and lawyered up so that ended that. My technique worked. BTW I beat a lie detector exam, as I was told by the technician as his opinion after the test. After my army career ended, 2 years after I was drafted. I went into sales and was extremely successful selling anything. I gave up on Law enforcement early on as a result of seeing how much money I could earn in professional sales with a major corporation. I eventually became a VP of sales & marketing before I retired with stock options that made me very comfortable in my retirement. BTW I did know who did the crime, but they never knew I knew
“Professionals” know how to lie. They know the “tricks” through experience. Very tough to find out what they know and what they don’t. The skirmish first timers and amateurs who haven’t figured it out yet are the ones that give it away.
It’s even easier than you think. When you sit down in the room with them immediately ask which of them are cops and which are lawyers. From that point forward all of those identified as lawyers are liars. But of all those identified as cops are a-holes . . . . . . AND liars.
A line I always used on my kids was "is that the story you want to stick with?" Didn't matter if I suspected or didn't know if they did anything. Key was neither did they lol.

Amen. I’ve read that in America, in excess of 80% of criminal convictions are the result of self incrimination. It is a compelling evidence that criminals are idiots that they subject themselves to police interrogation rather then invoking their civil rights to protect themselves from these techniques.
_Mr. Hughes, I would dearly love to answer your questions-and please believe me, I DO want to answer your questions-however, I'm simply not allowed to do that in the absence of my attorney. With that in mind, do I need to go ahead and contact him?_ (End of interrogation.)
That instance of asking what punishment should be applied to a guilty party is right out of Shakespeare’s “Richard III”. Who said he wasn’t relevant today? 😂
I have social anxiety , the longer I'm questioned the more nervous I become. The longer I'm out in public the more anxiety I feel!
The DUDE JUST LIE FEW TIMES
True story. When my daughter was about 5, she cut her name into our coffee table. When I asked her about it, she said our cat id it! I said, that's great! Imagine how much we can get for a cat that can spell and carve wood. She immediately panicked and confessed because she loved our cat.
You total bastard
! Brilliant !
My sister did something similar. She took a hammer and hit it against the porcelain sink in the bathroom. These were cast-iron covered with porcelain so it just chipped off the porcelain in a few places. Mom and dad ask both myself and my two sisters if they knew anything that had happened. Me and my older sister just said no. My youngest sister was probably about the same age, somewhere around five, and she “Pal do it”. Actually Bal do it.” Pal was our dog..
My parents started saying how that’s too bad because they really like how this looks and I guess they won’t be able to get Pal to do it again. After a little bit of conversation like this, my sister suddenly waddled off over to the cabinet in the bathroom, grabbed a hammer, and came waddling back saying”Bal not do it. I do it. I do more.”
😮😂. Interesting that a mishap here was blamed on a kitty too. Child was about 5 as well. Gotta love ‘em!
That is "laughing out loud" hysterical. I don't have kids of my own but from 1966 to 1971 I did childcare for millionaire families in Manhattan the night the regular Nanny was off and I can just imagine one of these kids reacting like that.
If you're being interrogated , say these simple words , "I want a lawyer" then don't talk
If you’re being interviewed you probably wouldn’t know it. That’s how it works.

Just like every interrogation instructor who thinks he's got it figured out, he's biased in interpreting stress as guilt. If the suspect doesn't trust you, or if you're interrogating them very harshly, you're going to see "Desdemona's fear." They know they didn't do it, but they're scared that they can't convince YOU that they didn't do it. They fear that they're going to be punished for something they didn't do. That can produce real terror that's every bit as stressful as guilt, and that will look like guilt if all you're looking for is signs of stress and calling it evasiveness.
And this sounds like a very insecure person.
Good point. I used to do entrance exam interviews for a college in Europe (23 years, thousands of candidates) as well as did thousands of oral exams for classes. I saw candidates trembling with stress. They were afraid of making mistakes and failing. Sometimes a rumor went around that all the places had been filled and we were just going through the motions of interviews and candidates were angry and defensive and stressed. Once someone started the rumor that a certain number of students had already failed the written part of the college's final leaving exam and taking the oral exams would be pointless for them. This was not true. Nobody had failed the written exam. But as the day went on and more and more students passed, the waiting students thought that they must be in the pool of students who had failed. We had students who were refusing to be interviewed because they were sure they had failed. The stress levels were going through the roof as the day went on and we interviewed more people. We had no idea why the students were increasingly insisting, "I know I've failed; just tell me." They were so anxious that they did much worse on the exam than if they had not heard the false rumor that "seven people failed." It's so true that innocent people can be terrified of a police interview. I've watched enough documentaries about the falsely convicted that I fear falling into the hands of the police and being questioned.
You've missed the point. If someone is afraid immediately that they'll be punished regardless, that fear will be there from the beginning and be their baseline response to the questions. In applying stress, he's looking for changes in behavior. If the person continues to be afraid at the same level, they're probably innocent. If the questions he's asking causes behavior changes, that's when he starts to think they might be guilty. Someone who is innocent and afraid of getting punished regardless won't change their behavior because they're going to have that same fear throughout. Someone who is afraid because they are guilty will get more nervous when stress is applied because they think the other person has evidence. An innocent person isn't going to think they have real evidence because there is none; their fear is irrational and so doesn't change in any observable way.
@@xzonia1 I think you have missed the point. People's reactions don't fit in a neat little box like you describe and can't be accurately read by an outside observer.
Absolutely true! Someone insecure can behave waaaaay more guilty than the one who did it.
Working in mental health tells me just some of those questions will make anxious and paranoid people react very differently even when innocent. However, when talking to employees or kids this advice is generally spot on.
absolutely! Do this bait then you will definitely find the culprit
Your totally spot on about people with anxiety,a things associated with that ,but me rage can effect a answer from me. Example ,if I'm full of rage but still trying to be polite but then get asked a very serious set of questions from the 1st answer to the 2nd and 3rd can become very diffrent. So if I get asked a serious (or not ) question and I respond ten the person jokingly questions my integrity I'm likely to blow my cool. And it's the same if the person's asking me say they've had money stolen from them ill probably answer (depending on who it is) twice before my temper gets the better ogmf me. Then the money could be fine ,then there's other questions in "this convoy " but I'm still full of rage the same thing will happen. So people don't think for 1 second that this is 100% set in stone the way to look for a liar because if that was true I'd be a liar 75% of the time
I agree completely
🙇🏾♂️🙇🏾♂️🙇🏾♂️
@@morgantnelson I think you missed curtisbottoms' point. If people are naturally anxious, the 'bait' question will make them give an anxious answer, even if they are innocent. That's not a way of finding a culprit. There are countless examples of people sentenced for crimes they didn't commit just because they seemed nervous, or didn't respond in an expected way to questioning, and later were proved to be innocent.
You'll catch half of the guilty people and all of the mentally unstable. What a system we have.
And 10% of good people who were framed and lied about and the "investigation experts" blindly supported them and added to the mess🙈
I have social anxiety , the longer I'm questioned the more nervous I become. The longer I'm out in public the more anxiety I feel!
😂 No worries. Context and clusters. Trained "professionals" will most likely be able to pick up the "clusters" of indicators that expose you as an anxious type as opposed to a person being intentionally deceptive.
@@VeronicaVeroVero Sure they will, lol. Never underestimate the arrogance of someone who thinks they know what they're doing.
I have the exact same problem
Me , too! I get extremely anxious alot but almost always around strangers and big crowds but i probably look so outta placem it sucks
Well clearly you are lying lol
This is some bs to say someone is lying when their behavior changes when questions get harder. It’s natural for everyone to get nervous when an absolute stranger and someone who has the power to destroy their life starts asking hard questions.
There was a fella that used to turn up and inspect our sites when I was working years ago. Nice guy, well mannered etc. but he would ask a question and then just watch you. I would always end up babbling to try and fill the empty space he was leaving. When I'd ran out of waffle he would just hold a steady gaze as if waiting for the rest. I'd end up feeling guilty for crimes I'd not even thought of! Guy would make a _brilliant_ interrogator.
Once you start getting self conscious and second guessing your behavior it all starts to snowball out of your control - even if you aren't actually being deceptive. So if you are, you really have to be somewhere on the psycho spectrum to hide it effectively.
It's great that he is dispelling the myths. Anyone who says, " I can spot a liar," is probably a liar themselves.
If someone tells me they're "good at spotting lies" I'm never telling that person the truth ever again. Even about the weather.
However, it's a sure way of getting out of jury duty!
Have you looked into this guys credentials ….. takes one to know one?
Deadass, a guy pinpoint-attacked my sexual insecurities "as a joke" and when I got upset about it, he them lectured me about how I have unresolved anger issues, which I do, and how he knows this because he knows people and can read the signs of their behavior.
So I was like "So you didn't accidentally piss me off--- You were triggering me on purpose."
Deadass he was like "Hey, uh, I didn't know like that, that-- that's not the point"
Should've punched him.
@@annapedersen7371Of course. It takes a liar to spot a liar. The same way the best scammer buster can spot scammers.
Of course people will react differently when the questions get harder. Also, being accused of something you didn't do makes you become angry and/or nervous.

Yeah, guys like the interviewee just want some solid conclusion they can take to their bosses. Hierarchies don't care much about truth.
My dad used these methods on us when we were kids. Since I was there when the crime was committed, I know he was only getting it right 2 out of 3 times. The rest of the time my dad got it wrong and the wrong person got blamed and was pushed into a confession for a lighter sentence. I was always nervous when being questioned because (just like the police) my dad can make a mistake and I will have to pay for that mistake. This guy says there is no reason for the innocent to be nervous but that just isn't true.
How many times has this expert got it wrong? Probably never in his opinion.
Such confidence in his own ability.
I am feeling the pain and anguish of the innocent peoples lives he has destroyed. This man feels none of this,or he does,and enjoys it.
I'm sure he gets it right occasionally though
Innocent people do get nervous when you question them about murder.
Some cops like to act like you're murderer and trying to make you nervous stressed to the highest lvl to say something they could use it against you to write report that you're murderer to close case and get prizes from it, not like they wanna find real murderer. Us cops ate well known for acting like that. Acting like they wanna destroy you do you will sign papers to not being bullied by them longer.
"If you are innocent, that won't cause you any stress."
I've been falsely accused, hard to recall anything more stressful than having no idea about what you are being accused of. This is abusive tactics, and the stuff police are trained to say to convince juries it isn't coercive.
There is no condition where an innocent being interrogated isn't stressful.
There is no circumstance one should voluntarily sit for an interrogation or interview with law enforcement, and instead one should rely on rights against self incrimination while refusing to participate without council. The deck is stacked, and his lie about "causing no stress to the innocent" is all the proof necessary to show it.
when I was falsely accused & questioned I was a nervous wreck the whole time. literally shaking at times.
Well talking about observation, what I observed is the time on Chase’s watch doesn’t change the whole way through!
Lawyer, lawyer, lawyer!! Whether you are guilty or innocent. These investigators are not your friends they are not trying to help you. Your cooperation will not reduce your sentence. Get a lawyer immediately!!
I watched a video probably still on RUclips now where a lawyer talks about this kind of situation exactly. And he says exactly what you are saying, don’t say anything, get a lawyer immediately. Specially if you’re innocent.
He gave one example where an acquaintance of a murdered person was brought into the police station. The man was innocent and talked freely to the police and during that conversation he said just one negative thing, that he didn’t like him sometimes.
Eventually this man was arrested for the murder and during the trial the policeman who talked about the interview mentioned that one sentence only that he didn’t like him sometimes. And the rest of the one hour interview where the man was saying good things about this person who was killed was not mentioned at all.
Very well said ! I absolutely agree with you!
@@christopherandrews9232 What if you don't have a lawyer?
@ stay quite until one is provided. “You have the right to remain silent,” use it!
One form of lying is telling people you can tell if they are lying.
It's a method of manipulation. Works sometimes, too. Especially if you sneak in some actual tricks which cause them to reveal information that they otherwise shouldn't have.
Or they will use ancient war time interrogation tactics... Depravation of sleep. Constant badgering, telling you false facts related to case to get you to tell your side of the story. They're allowed by law and expected to lie to solve the crime . YOU ARE NOT AND IT WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU IN A COURT OF LAW.
Simple solution to situation... Say NOTHING. .Your lawyer wil thank you!!! Say NOTHING TO NO ONE Until you see in person a lawyer. Cops are trained to take any one sentence you may say and twist the words around to say the opposite of what was meant. They are not your friend.. And say false promises (ex: plea deals/set people up in exchange for reduced or dropping your charges). You are not paid to do a cops job.
That's only amateurs like you.

The fact that you suspect my being guilty of a crime by the manner in which you are questioning me, would make me very nervous and would probably make me start fidgeting or breathing faster although i'm innocent. I once failed a polygraph test because of this, and got blamed for something I would never do.
This won't work with people who make false confessions as a result of getting an earful of abuse every day of their life since the day they were born. They're just going to take punishment after punishment that they don't deserve because everything was always their fault.
I've been a professional investigator and interviewer for over 30 years. I've never allowed anyone to falsely confess to something they didn't do. One of the best ways to establish that the confession is true-is to have the suspect walk me through what they did, how they did it, when, how many times, dollar amounts, specific items taken, etc. I also don't accept responses like;, 'If you said I did it, then I guess I did it'.

Lying is only one form of false language. It's willful.
What a crock of crap. There are so many holes in these tactics. No wonder we have innocent people sitting in prison and killers roaming free.
no one gets convicted for being nervous. All he's doing is ascertaining if it's worth investigating a person or they can be safely removed from a list of suspects. And if there's overwhelming evidence of guilt that surfaces in the interrogation, they might press for confessions, a slam dunk for them and for the court, or at least know where to focus resources to get material evidence and witnesses.
I’m a retired federal agent and have had extensive training and experience in interrogations. I learned both of those lines of questioning more than 40 years ago. I can assure you they work.

Due to people I hung around with I have been interrogated more than a few times. Every time I was completely in the dark about what they were asking me about. Not a clue, no idea at all. Regardless the various Interrogators were 100% certain I was guilty, involved or knew something. Ridiculous waste of time. Not impressed!
Hopefully you have a lawyer now.
If a person with coin, connections, crews, clout, corrupt cronies, and other shady jabronies wants to make you seem guilty, brother... there is NOTHING you can do. You'd be goin' down like The Hurricane. No legit evidence required; they'd just cook it up, baby. 😂
Excellent. I have watched and listened to Chase previously, on another channel working in conjunction with three other professionals, and found him easy to equate with. End of the day, in my opinion, if you have committed a wrong-doing and are caught bang to rights, it is always best to "man-up" and go "hands-up". I lied to my Mother in 1965. I was five years old. I thought I'd conviced Mum with my lie and dodged the cane behind the kitchen door when Dad got home from work: wrong. Mum craftily set the punishment up. Cutting it short, a Dettol soaked and lightly squeeze rag leaves a particularly foul taste; for hours. Short sharp shock. No more lies from Timmy boy. I have subscribed to your channel with pleasure. Thank you both.

Thank you so much for this thorough and comprehensive video on how to beat a lie detector test!
Of course one will act differently if you ask them questions that are automatic, vs ones that require memory or thought
The truth may not be "automatic", but it's not nearly as taxing on one's memory and mental processing as deception tends to be.
The questions are rather automatic, pretty standard in format and techniques. Like with anything else, more experience begets proficiency..
They ask questions and listen to answers. A lot.
Calculating "right" or "believable" answers, coming up with a litany of excuses, and remembering any number of various medical/mental conditions, can be quite the chore. Yeah, if one is nervous, they may flub a couple three lines of their script. Although, it's typically not the nervous that's an issue, .
The cognitive overload method is excellent because it is a simple concept and once you detect mistakes you can focus on the mistakes. The problem with the skill of detecting deception is it is very easy to detect deception if you know what to look for but if you are not a detective there is not alot you can do with the information unless you want to destroy relationships to get the truth.
I wouldn't feel more comfortable if you told me there were cameras recording me, I would get mad and shout and cry
Easy way to spot someone who is lying - when they sit and tell you that they can spot people lying. Here especially, imagine being asked where you live and how many brothers and sisters you have, and then later a question you immediately know means the 2 guys in the room suspect you of committing a serious crime. And you think you wouldn't change how you answer that latter question? Of course you'll change, you'll realise the cops suspect you. Whether you did the crime or not you're going to be careful what you say because you know they're filming and recording your answers and if can they can show one tiny aspect of your answer isn't true they'll be claiming that's because you're lying etc etc. That's why the smart person never talks to the police and asks for a lawyer - whether they are guilty or not - because all the police are trying to do is convict you. Whether you are guilty or not. The pressure on them is to secure a conviction for their stats and they don't care at al who that is.
And this 'raising the stakes" is what ranges from mild threats to torture - and it's well established that people don't tell the truth under duress - they will confess to crimes they have not done and could not have done. All the US cops do is to have legalised duress to make it sound like it's an 'interrogation technique', sure they're not pulling out fingernails but the whole objective is to get innocent or guilty people to confess. The notion that if you didn't kill someone you'd just nonchalantly sit there while a cop subtly threatens you or implies they have evidence linking you to a murder and only the killer would get stressed is laughable nonsense. This is how you spot a liar - the guy is sitting there waving his hands spouting complete and total horseshit.
You should be much more wary of the person who answers the questions the same - because that likely means they either lack emotion, and/or they've rehearsed their answer. People who tell you they know if someone is lying from observing them are lying. That's how you spot a liar. People who claim to be able to do something that you can easily demonstrate in a double-blind experiment they actually have no more ability to do above chance - in the past that used to be psychics and other charletons. Now it's people claiming to use 'body language' to detect lying - they're trying to put a scientific spin on it - but it doesn't work.
Very nice to be given actual facts of things that help. A lot of similarly titled vids don't give tangible info to use. THANK YOU.
At 3:14: If you are not the killer that question won't cause you any stress.
If you are a suspect it WILL cause you stress. Innocent people have been imprisoned for decades I know that is rare, but at the time of questioning, an innocent person is suddenly in a very unfamiliar situation where the stakes have been raised enormously.
I’d be nervous because I don’t know who lied to you about me, and now you’re operating with the cognitive bias that I’m the perp. Investigations are basically garbage in garbage out situations.
THIS is why you always get a lawyer and don't say anything.. 🙂
You shouldn't have to 'bait' someone. If they're guilty of something, there's evidence of that, if there's not enough evidence, the police aren't doing their job well enough. I've always thought cops baiting suspects was very manipulative.
I disagree, some people get scared or have been accused of things even when they didn't do it and have a guilt complex. Some people get nervous and may appear to look guilty, even when they are not.
this is why you never engage or speak a single word to these investigators. They are experts at the highest level and you don't stand a chance. ALWAYS have a lawyer. Period.
This is why you always ask for a lawyer and then invoke your right to remain silent. Or if not under arrest, simply ask, "am I being detained? Am I allowed to leave?" If the answer is yes, simply leave without saying a word. Never talk to the police.
I feel guilty about everything. Indont know if this would work. Plus I'm very literal. If he asked me, "Is there any reason . . ." Ibwould immediately start thimking of reasons someonebwould say sumthin untrue and I know I would look guilty.
2:49 This one really brought me back. I got called in on a Monday after some drunken college mischief. The Dean said what Chase just said pretty much word for word. Then he asked me a funny question about a minor detail of my prank and burst out laughing.

Right I agree with this…. there are multiple things to look at to determine lies and half truths etc…. How else can you determine what to ask an individual and up the stakes as stated here. ❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽
This what I do as a psychologist; we ask questions regarding context and within timelines, while doing congruence and 'ecology testing' the entire time.
I read a while back that statistically the people who are best at detecting liars are often the worst at believing people who are telling the truth. Oh well...
Unless you're joking, that might be because liars use skills to appear as truth tellers, while truth tellers are merely genuine. So someone who appears truthful is either truthful or the best liar they've encountered. Detecting liars is spotting failures in the skills they use to appear truthful.
It's also a small part of how liars and other broken people turn you into them, by forcing you to deal with their toxicity you end up a kind of toxic yourself.
@@xyaeiounn There's considerable difference between habitual, chronic and pathological liars. Some lie occasionally or strategically. Some lie to manipulate, some are just scared to be honest. Many types of lies and liars.
@@wangobadankas4038 Sure. Then there are those weird types who live in constant certainty, they have all the answers, are never wrong, and can be as lethal to you as any devious person.
Reason number a million you dont speak to law enforcement without a lawyer
Q. Is there any reason someone would say they saw your car outside the robbed grocery store? A. Well yeah, my ex is always trying to get me in trouble. And her mother hates it that I have custody of the kids.
All well and good, but dealing with psychopaths is another kettle of fish.
I don't trust anyone who wears red and white striped socks....
Funny
You made me look at my feet !
when you're a hammer everything looks like a nail
Confirmation bias in action. If you expect everything to indicate a lie, everything looks like a lie. What you need is objective evidence that has nothing to do with what the person is saying, or how they are saying it.
Well austics, people who are naturally restless or people adhd. These mental conditions makes an interrogators job next to impossible to do without getting sued compared with the average population.
Sometimes I tell someone something and I feel like I'm suddenly nervous and giving indicators that I'm lying, but I'm actually not. How does that come into play?
That means you'll be questioned longer. And eventually the truth will probably reveal itself and that's when you get to go.
Like Japanese Americans in ww2 held in camps then released after the war was over.
How many innocent people are in jail because law enforcement actually believe this garbage? 1 is too many.
Exactly, jail or labeled as whatever disorder the so called “ professional” came up with.
Smh
A friend's children denied writing on the living room wall. It carried on and one day she spoke aloud while they were in the room "Mmm, i wonder who wrote this, the letter A is written so perfectly." Her daughter proudly stated "That was me." So my friend shouted "Well dont do it any more! " culprit caught.
What if the person is telling the truth, but they are scared you won't believe them?
If I spilled milk on the carpet, I'd say "lawyer". Don't care if I did it or not. This guy is a monster. Subjective observation to ruin lives is predatory, and his little "cute anecdote" with his own children shows that. Good grief. 1 in 10 of us are psychopaths.
Yeah, your parents will hire a lawyer on the spot. Makes sense!
How are lives being ruined? How are lives not being saved?
Of a person has been set up, lied too, used, damaged or if they suffer from PTSD, paranoia etc, their behavior will change...
Asking opening " harmless " questions like what's your name where do you live and work etc is to establish a baseline of behaviour and voice-tone and to set it against the real questions about the " crime " when they are not stating facts as they did previously but are now having to lie and state " untruths " about what actually happened.
The easiest way to spot if a man is lying is if he answers YOUR question with a question of his own, thereby giving him valuable seconds to formulate an answer he thinks/knows will placate you (ie get you off his back). My ex did this all the time. It would go:
ME: “We’ve been dating 4 years - are you still not thinking you ought to divorce your wife?
HIM: “What do you mean?”
ME: “It’s an easy question.”
HIM: “Depends on how you look at it.”
And so on. See what he did - he deflected the question so I’d have to repeat it several times (getting angrier), then he’d storm off to the pub knowing that when he returned I’d be in a huff and we’d go to bed angry (and not talking!). He was VERY clever.
Looking away is a "tell"? If I'm bothered or annoyed at someone, I stare them down... because I'm (in my head) imagining what bad evil things I want to do to you. I'm not a Bad Guy, but thoughts happen. Better to think it, than to do it.
One place the "what do you think should happen to the person who is guilty?" question is answered differently is when you're speaking with someone who is a posturer. Someone who is filled with bravado and fully believes he's gotten away with his crime will often say "throw the book at the person... do your worst... make sure they never see the light of day!"
There was a YT vid a while ago where a judge asked that question of a guy who killed a child. The guy started speaking in that manner ("throw away the key", "bury him in jail", etc). So the judge gave him the punishment as the guy said - put him in jail for life.
Was it PROVEN that he was guilty, or was it just ASUMED?
@@madhuzeeuwen6376 He was found guilty by a jury and by the judge. Look up Chris McNabb. He abused his wife, fed her meth and killed his 2 week old. Then told the judge that there was no evidence that could prove he was the one who did it. After the judge asked what sentence the real killer should get, he gave Chris what he answered: "the max sentence... life... throw away the key." He was sentenced to life without parole, plus 10 years.
Criminals and cheats behave that way all the time, that's a very common tactic to try to deflect suspicion.
I'm sure he would've got the same punishment anyway, no matter what he answered to that question? At least that's how it should go
THe context of the question can promote a change. Example, how was your journey that's a nice tie where did you get it I like it. How is the weather in your part of town. What did you eat for breakfast. Then did you do the murder????. well it's obviously not going to be answered in the nonchalant manner as the other questions is it. This does not imply deception. It is going to be a very anxious question irrespective of innocence or guilt. Conclusion the question changes the mood not necessarily a deception
To catch my kids in a lie, is that I ask them a question I already know the answer to.
That is a standard police interviewing technique.
This only works if you assume that the individual is free of all mental, cognitive, or mental issues that affect their level of comfort in stressful situations.
That's interesting re looking for changes. That sounds a bit like looking for the things a lie detector would tend to pick up on.
If the interrogator is a narc, then you can bet I will be anxious, stressed, nervous, unstable, hypervigilant, confused, easily manipulated, super sensitive.
Some of us feel guilt whether it is valid or not.
I just hope I'm never questioned for anything! 😮
i was onboard until he said "if you're innocent you wont" people with high anxiety and people with poor social skills often confess to crimes they didn't commit, so will people who have been sleep deprived or otherwise neglected or tortured thats why torture isnt allowed to be used as evidence and coercion against the law.
there are no absolutes when it comes to people because mental states are important, and people who talk in absolutes think or act as though they have all the answers when no one does or can.
What he didn’t do, because he doesn’t know, is calibration. Before you can judge someone by their mannerisms, you first need to know what they are and aren’t and that takes a very long time to do and under many different circumstances. Do you always feel the same? Do you always react the same way to the same thing? He says you do!
I was a corporate attorney for my whole career. When I wanted to interview an important witness about a "big" issue I would start small and have the witness bring related documents like expense reports or travel logs or contact logs "for background" to establish a base line. Then slowly I would get into the heart of the interview. If I had evasion issues with the baseline -- I knew I had some real trouble!!!!
If I was being interrogated and heard "I like you as a person...", my BS meter would instantly peg. I would also know that they didn't have solid evidence to connect me to the crime and that they are fishing for a confession. Otherwise I would have been charged and arrested. It's not as though I'm a ne'er-do-well. It's just common sense. However, I have known some criminal types throughout my life and intellectual adroitness wasn't their strong suit.
Good tips, but no system is foolproof. There are general patterns to behavior, but not everyone fits these patterns. The techniques described here are a good starting point and useful during interrogation.
Never talk to cops,not even in a social setting…they’re NEVER off duty.
I was a nanny for a policeman of 13 years. Of course I had to talk to him. He had a camera in every room and outdoors. I worked for him for 5 years and he trusts me implicitly.
I have been questioned by the police in an interrogation room, being recorded. Every question they asked I assumed they were studying me to see if I was being deceitful. I was aware of the techniques they were using because I had been trained to evaluate body language in my career. I was formally trained by the US Army, in the art of deception as a member of the ASA and we'll leave it at that. So, during this interrogation I was stoic, unmovable and never took my eyes off the person asking the questions almost a dead stare. Most questions I turned around and restated them to the person questioning me. i.e. If I understand you correctly, you're asking ..........they stopped this about 5 questions in the questioning. The conclusion was that I had been professionally trained & dismissed me from the interrogation with a series of threats. The truth was that I was out of town during the time a crime was committed about 1000 miles from the event unbeknownst to them. Someone told them I was involved in this crime, and they were fishing, it was a family member who actually did the crime not me, but they were told I had directly contributed to the crime that went down. Needless to say, they eventually gave up and realized I was not going to cooperate and lawyered up so that ended that. My technique worked. BTW I beat a lie detector exam, as I was told by the technician as his opinion after the test. After my army career ended, 2 years after I was drafted. I went into sales and was extremely successful selling anything. I gave up on Law enforcement early on as a result of seeing how much money I could earn in professional sales with a major corporation. I eventually became a VP of sales & marketing before I retired with stock options that made me very comfortable in my retirement. BTW I did know who did the crime, but they never knew I knew
I'm interviewing the interrogator today, then straight to my prep school 6th grade gym class.
Regarding children, why the parental gut is crucial.
“Professionals” know how to lie. They know the “tricks” through experience. Very tough to find out what they know and what they don’t. The skirmish first timers and amateurs who haven’t figured it out yet are the ones that give it away.
Very good. True Pro - no ego. Like your style ‘subscribed’ -
This is a good technique to detect police interrogation lies.
It’s even easier than you think. When you sit down in the room with them immediately ask which of them are cops and which are lawyers. From that point forward all of those identified as lawyers are liars. But of all those identified as cops are a-holes . . . . . . AND liars.
A line I always used on my kids was "is that the story you want to stick with?" Didn't matter if I suspected or didn't know if they did anything. Key was neither did they lol.
Wanna see changes? Ask me my name and age, then interrogate me about either of my parents. 😂
Lots of Love to Chase .... you are one of a kind. Love your sharp mind.
