Question: Is he a liar or not?
Answer: yes, well, no, well, yeah, well, kinda.
We like things simple and in a neat package. We want the bad guys to wear black hats and the good guys to wear white hats. We want conclusions and neatly tied up packages.
It is not so with detecting deception.
It is possible for a deceptive person to tell the truth, and a truthful person to lie. In fact, it happens regularly.
For the purpose of understanding deception, we classify by the "walk"; something used from antiquity.
The "walk" of a person is the person's normal patterns in life. A truthful person normally tells the truth, and for the truthful person, a lie, or deception, is often found in polite responses, or pressure situations. When a truthful person lies, he or she will often recant, acknowledging the lie. For the truthful person, the lie is out of character and the conscience will be troubled until the situation of deception is rectified. Honest people make mistakes, own them, learn from them, and seek to forsake them.
The "walk", that is, the normal pattern for a deceptive person is to rely upon deception whenever his or her personal comfort levels are threatened. This is a deceptive person.
A sociopath takes this to the ultimate conclusion, which is why lying and murder are related. The sociopath will tell the truth only when the truth serves his or her own interests.
Casey Anthony is a sociopath.
But what of the rest of the family?
The Anthonys are highly deceptive individuals, who all practice lying, of which has led to their implosion. The lies are unravelling and all that remains is pain.
Casey Anthony cannot feel empathy for others, but we do not know the same about the other Anthonys. It may be that the Anthonys have suffered greatly during this trial, with at first, appearing to tell the truth, yet then retreating back into the norm of lies.
Statement Analysis gets to the truth.
However, the reader/analyst must understand that the truth is often complexly hidden between deceptive statements. This can change from day to day, hour to hour, and even sentence by sentence.
One day, George Anthony testifies and appears to wear the white hat. The next day, he lies and appears to wear the black hat. The third day he tells the truth, appears to wear the white hat, People feel their emotions rise with him, as they watch him cry on the stand.
Some will say "this was a performance" while others will say "this was genuine pain".
Statement Analysis goes by the words he speaks and does not need to see him, hear his voice, nor discern his body language.
In fact, one of the major principles of Statement Analysis is the scientific response: that is, that analysis done of his statement, no matter where it is done, should produce the same results. It is often preferred by Analysts that they know nothing other than the allegation, and do not want to be influenced by voice inflection nor personality.
Sociopaths are often charming and highly persuasive.
Transcript Analysis is the single best tool to use to get to the truth; far more than any other method. No matter how something was said, looking down or looking up (which can be useful in other studies), Scientific Content Analysis (SCAN) also known as Statement Analysis or Discourse Analysis, needs only the words employed.
It is also important to note that when someone does not tell the whole truth, nothing but the truth, they are often called a "liar" for being deceptive.
For the purpose of analysis, we use "deceptive" rather than "lied" for clarity.
Here is why:
A lie is where the subject presents something as reality which is not. More than 90% of deception does not come from a lie, where something is made up, but comes from information that is withheld.
"I came into the house, heard a gun shot, and saw my wife lying in blood. I was upset. I ran downstairs again. I found the back door open. I thought someone must have opened it in a hurry. I called 911. "
This is a 100% truthful statement. There is not a single lie found within it.
What is missing, however, is critical information. The subject who spoke this sentence is being deceptive by withholding the identity of the shooter: himself. However, in his statement, there is not a single lie.
This is why we conclude: "deceptive" or the lesser "unreliable" which helps guide investigators and journalists (and all truth seekers) in how to proceed.
Regarding George Anthony's responses under oath
We will do a full analysis of the transcripts to show truthful testimony from deceptive testimony. Thus far, short analysis has concluded that George, Cindy, Casey and Lee are deceptive people. Deceptive people hurt others and eventually turn on themselves. Casey has destroyed her family, beginning with the youngest, in murder.
Next, she destroyed her father by attempting to blame him for criminal behavior that would have put him in prison.
By doing so, she has destroyed her father's marriage.
How?
Cindy Anthony testified, under oath, falsely. She did this to save Casey. Previously, she had attempted to blame others for the murder, but here, she lied to blame herself.
Lee Anthony contradicted her testimony, and there will now be an even larger, perhaps lethal rift between them.
George refused to follow Cindy's lead and has even now gone as far as to say that he believes Casey murdered Caylee.
The jury heard this, in so many words, because of the folly of Casey's attorney.
Deceptive people, like the Anthonys and like Jose Baez, like when people throw up their hands and say "I don't know who to believe or what to believe!" and give up the quest for truth.
Statement Analysis asks the reader to put down the hands of surrender, and carefully view what each has told us and we will get to the truth.
Readers want to know:
Question: Did George Anthony tell the truth?
George told the truth to some questions, and he was deceptive in his answers to other questions. This is the same response for Cindy Anthony and Lee Anthony, and yes, we can know which answers were truthful, which were unreliable, and which testimony was deceptive. It takes time.
For some readers, George will wear the white hat, and for others, he will wear the black hat.
The analyst, or truth seeker, must be willing to see George Anthony frequently swap hats, and accept the complexity of the situation. Listening to a highly deceptive person can be exhausting but truth seekers must endure in order to find specific responses.
