Former FBI agent and body language expert Joe Navarro breaks down how he approached interrogating during his time with the FBI. Joe sets the record straight; there is no simple way to tell if a human being is lying. When looking for deceit, Joe focuses on the subject's discomfort. He also does is best to make sure the subject feels comfortable enough to open up. a far cry from the images we see in many police procedurals. Check out Joe's book The Dictionary of Body Language Books By Joe Navarro: Joe Navarro Body Language Academy

I'd love to meet this guy and have an open conversation with him. My dad was an FBI agent working in roughly the same timeframe as Mr. Navarro. He worked Foreign Counterintelligence. As you can imagine, my dad was very closed-door about what he did during the days when he was working. Even 10 years after his -retirement- he would just clam up and steer the conversation elsewhere. But I've always wanted to know just exactly what his day was like when he interviewed potential suspects re. intelligence matters and even defectors as he spent days with them, getting them to feel safe and comfortable in safe houses, etc. Fascinating!

Body language is like paranormal activity. If something else can explain it better, it holds no weight. Spotty eye contact COULD be someone nervous about lying, or it could be (like me) and autistic person that just doesn't like eye contact or (also like me) an adhd person that can't continue the conversation AND maintain eye contact. Body language can tell us a lot but it can also be EXTREMELY misleading.

I was watching the Chris Watts interrogation and the detectives sat across and then moved to sitting to the side of him. They placed Chris in the corner. They caused an cognitive load and they gave a boomerang saying to him about his family: we know how hard marriage is sometimes, that the stressors he was going through a how his family would appreciate being taken care of properly by the detectives.

This guy seems like one of the few people who knows what he's talking about when it comes to interrogation. I've seen way too many people say -if a person does ___, then they're 100% lying- as if it's foolproof science.
Also, the footage during the exoneration part. they were all POC. Sheesh. Really makes you think how many of them are falsely accused of crimes

About number 2: What he said it's totally true that escalating a situation is not beneficial for anyone but that doesn't mean it's not done everyday.
You can read news everyday about how cops keep escalating an interrogation to the point where they are basically pressuring/bullying/manipulating witnesses into false testimony or even false confessions.

i have anxiety, social anxiety, autism, adhd, and more
im always fidgeting i cant help it even when im calm and well im always nervous talking to people im not comfortable with

reply

Willing to admit to a crime, just to stop an interview process.
Pretty sad!
Bad judgment, intimidation, entrapment, and lack of due process just to name a few. Justice prevailed after the fact, even though, many years passed for those exonerated.

Anyone notice a lot of those false accusation dna exonerations in this video were black people? What a messed up system. Too bad they lost years of their lives. Hopefully the system as a whole has evolved to include more of M. Navarro's research.

Hella good. The only time in my life where I was absolutely sure that someone was lying was one time, when a former friend was telling a story outside to my roommates and them all laughing.
Because it was my story. I told it to her.

This guy is good. Honest. Probably a great interrogator. Totally opposite of what you see in 90% of interrogations available online. If this guy ever asks you a question - including and not limited to -how are you? -, ask for a lawyer.
