Story of the Danish Woman Seeking Father

The video you saw of “Karen and August” is actually a hoax. It was a government ad by VisitDenmark, are you ready, to promote tourism. I can’t help but find this funny. What were these people thinking?

In the end, I think they realized they might get the wrong kind of tourists, and decided to pull the ad, but they have had a difficult time doing so. It keeps popping up on YouTube repeatedly. No surprise there.

For those of you who have interest, and wondered if the baby is hers, according to this website, it is not. You can read about that here.

There are, however, many clues to deceit in this video.

Read moreI thought it was hilarious how “Karen” (whose real name is reported as Ditte Arnth Jorgensen) totally forgets her baby’s name, and in the process laughs about it. Her laugh was the second red flag for me. I would expect her to be nervous about truly trying to find the father, but there were absolutely no sign of nerves.

Then she says about the baby, “His name is August. Yeah.” The “yeah” is indicative of deception that I have never seen written about anywhere. People who are deceptive often verbally confirm their own story, as she does here. It’s like they are thinking through what they just said, and then, without a realizing it, they say “yeah” as if they are convincing themselves. Does that make sense? She does this four or five times in this video.

“Karen” also looks like she is going to break out laughing in the beginning of this video, which doesn’t fit with the scenario. If a woman was really going to stick herself out there to do this, I would think she would really want to find the father, and wouldn’t find the situation laughable. With that, she would likely be nervous, as she would be truly hoping to do this successfully, and get the answers she so craves. I did wonder, for a second, if an honest psychopath could do this, but in the end, there were too many clues to even consider it.

I love when “Karen” says, “I was on my way home and…” At this point, she makes a question face. I don’t know how to say it any other way. Her face makes an expression, as if she is questioning what she is saying. This is another red flag. She also says, “I think you lost your friends.” She thinks? It becomes very apparent this woman doesn’t know any details whatsoever, which of course, is another red flag. Even drunk people remember some detail before they pass out.

Notice how she also swallows awkwardly? While this is not always a clue to deceit, when I see it amongst many other clues, it is supportive.

Watch her shoulder shrug when she says, “I don’t remember where you are from, or…. yeah.” I love that sentence! Two more indications of deception: a shoulder shrug and a verbal confirmation.

Then she says, “I don’t even remember your name.”

What woman on earth would be willing to put herself out there and say this? This was mind-boggling. Even if casual sex is more acceptable in Denmark, most people don’t like to admit, especially women, they were so drunk out of their mind they couldn’t remember someone’s name with whom they were intimate! Most societies have less than pleasant names for people like this, and I am sure the Danes are not exception. I laughed when I watched this, because again, I wondered if a psychopath who is being honest might do this, but of course, that was out of the question by this point.

After she says she doesn’t remember his name, she says that she does remember that they talked about Denmark. This is absolutely hilarious. Only “Denmark” sticks out with all the details this night? The person who created this video doesn’t understand the human mind.

People remember the most detail when they have an association or a connection to something. Naturally, emotions will elicit the broadest recollections of past memories. So for this woman to say that Denmark was more memorable than the guy’s name, a guy who fathered her child, is just comical.

I have to say “Karen” did quite well when she says she is not crazy or obsessive. She managed to get that smile off her face and be more serious, but then she says, “I feel I owe it to both you and him. Yeah.” Another verbal confirmation that makes no sense unless she is trying to convince herself of her story.

She continues, “I haven’t been with anyone else since that night. Yeah. Just so you know that.” There is another “yeah”, but more inconsistent would be the claim to her actions. If she is the type of woman who enjoys casual sex and drinking to the point of not remembering anything, it would be very unlikely she would have abstained from sex or drinking for a year and a half. That in and of itself makes her statement highly unlikely, even if everything else turned out to be true, which we know it is not.

I feel sorry for the people who created this. The backlash from this isn’t likely to go away any time soon.

* While there are many signs to deception, don’t forget, I believe there is not one clue that is reliable to predict deception in every case. Deception detection requires a multifaceted approach. If you show me a trait you think only liars do, I can be confident I can find you an honest person doing the same thing, so just be cautious!

Misty’s Hypnosis Video

It’s obvious why the police are saying Misty is inconsistent publicly now, because when you listen to her latest story with the hypnotist, you can’t miss it. You don’t need any talent to see the changes in Misty’s story. I have not believed Misty nor Ronald from day one. You can read my original thoughts here.

When we live through an event, we usually recall the details similarly every time we talk about it, but Misty’s story changes again and again, quite notably.

Read moreIn this hypnosis video, Misty says:

I woke up some…at three o’clock, I just woke up out of the blue. Three something, I just woke up. I don’t know what made me wake up, and I seen the kitchen light that was on and I know my kitchen light was shut off, and it was glaring in my bedroom so I mean all the lights, every things turned off when I went to bed…and the light in the kitchen is glaring so I get up to see what is going on, and the back door was wide open, and there’s a cement block holding the screen door open. I didn’t know Haleigh was gone yet. I ran back into the bedroom to grab my cell phone, called 911, because the back door was open and I know the back door was shut when I went to sleep, and I freak’n out already, cuz the back door was open, and I didn’t know what do, and as soon as I called…I got my phone and uh… and I as soon as I got on the phone and I turned around, she was gone. So I started look in the house, under the beds, closets, everywhere I could think of…just freak’n out. And by the time I opened the front door to go out the front door, Ronald pulled up, and he said call the cops so I immediately called 911 (end time marker 9:38).

Events that Misty marked before as notable are now different. Triggers such as having to go to the bathroom in her first recollections of Haleigh’s last night have now changed to a blaring light streaming into her bedroom.

If you listen to her 911 call, and this video here, Misty in February gave a different account, “…I’d seen three–three o’clock in the morning. I got up and…I got up because I had to use the bathroom but I didn’t make it to the bathroom. I seen the kitchen light on and I walked in the kitchen and the back door is wide open. I mean I didn’t notice about Haleigh then until I seen the back door open and I go into the room and she’s gone. And that’s all I know.”

Why didn’t she mention calling 911 before discovering Haleigh missing?

Misty originally told us she called Ronald before calling the police, but this time she strangely forgets that important element. Watch here when Misty says, “Well, at first, I’d seen the back door was open, then I was running around the house looking for her, and I got my phone and I called her dad, and then I called the police.”

Worse, the order in which Misty even picks up the phone varies from moment to moment. In the statement above, Misty first tells us she called 911 before realizing Haleigh was even gone, and then later in her ramblings she tells us, “Ronald pulled up and he said call the cops so I immediately called 911.”

What is the truth? When did she actually call 911? She can’t even get the basics accurate nor keep them consistent. Her story is so jumbled up, we can’t even begin to dissect what she says with any confidence.

Do you notice the rate of Misty’s speech in this hypnosis video? When people feign fear, they often speak fast. Notice how fast Misty talks at times?

More than that, when Misty talks about finding the door open, we should see a sense of fear on her face, if she is recalling a truthful event, but Misty is as calm and as collected as can be when recalling this memory (she reminds me of Jennifer Campbell on many levels–another having no urgency to find Haleigh. Both have a resignation about them that is palpable). All of Misty’s “recollection” memories are missing the normal emotional connections, which is another huge red flag.

I could go on and on and on…

Jennifer Campbell

Jennifer Campbell and her boyfriend, Louis Ross, were arrested Friday on suspicion of murdering Campbell’s adopted nephew, Hassani. Due to all the requests, I will share my thoughts with you.

Read moreWhen I watch Campbell speak, the first thing that I notice is a resignation about her that blares at me. I don’t feel any urgency from her to hurry up and find her nephew, which is very perplexing to me, if she truly believes he was abducted or walked away. It’s an immediate red flag.

I also don’t see her express any fear for Hassani or stress that he is missing. She is calm and relaxed, as if she knows the outcome already, which is not good. It’s another red flag.

Campbell also cries, yet ironically, there are no tears for quite some time. More than that, she “cries” and talks in this high-pitched voice, which is more indicative of a whine to me. It doesn’t seem genuine, though I do think she is genuinely sad. She expresses a genuine pain, at times, though I don’t know if I can explain it. I just feel she is sad about whatever happened. I just do not believe she is as distraught here, in the present, as she wants us to believe. If her behavior is any indication, she has had some time to come to accept this outcome, if you want my opinion.

I also find it weird how Campbell suggests that someone could have pulled in the driveway behind the store and saw Hassani, and hence taken him, without her or her boyfriend knowing. When you look at the scenario of how and where Hassani supposedly disappeared according to Campbell and Ross, most people would conclude the chances of this actually occurring would be nil–almost an impossibility — simply because of the time it would take compared to the time it took Ross to walk to and from the front and back door. But Campbell entertains it, which is notable. For Campbell to believe this shows a big inconsistency in her story, if you want my opinion. What is more interesting is when she says this, her shoulder goes up in doubt.

Campbell’s body language towards the interviewer is also perplexing, if she is telling us the truth. She is leaning away from them, with a frightened look in her eyes. Why is she afraid of them? If her nephew was truly abducted or wandered off, the media would be her best potential help to get the word out there. They would be her friend, but she doesn’t appear to feel that way. It’s another red flag.

I also read in the case that Campbell said she didn’t want to take a lie detector test because she is pregnant and she didn’t want to get stressed out, or stress the baby out. This is huge red flag as well. Everyone knows if you are telling the truth, a lie detector test is not a stressful event. It’s when we lie that the stress becomes overwhelming!

I personally think Campbell knows more than she is letting on here. Sadly, I believe she ultimately knows what happened to Hassani, but isn’t saying.

I will try to write about Louis Ross and Misty Cummings this week! Stay tuned.

Michael Jackson: Unseen Video

Many people now that Michael Jackson has died are wondering if Jackson was honest when he was alive and perhaps, even taken advantage of because he was uber-rich. Several readers have written to me since his death wondering if Jackson was honest when he spoke out about the child molestation accusations in the recently released video deposition of Jackson (below).

Read moreWhen I watch Jackson speak, his soft-sweet demeanor immediately puts me on alert. When people act like this, it is usually an indication they are putting on a facade.

When this video above first starts, the interviewer asks Jackson, “Where you aware that Jordan Chandler or his family on his behalf filed a litigation, a lawsuit against you?” Watch how Michael Jackson reacts just before he says “yes”. He appears to be in a movable chair that flexes, and when Michael Jackson thinks about it, he rocks backwards. Why is Michael Jackson moving away when they ask this? He becomes almost timid.

If you had nothing to do with a false lawsuit, would it make you want to shrink away or be timid?

Next the interviewer says, “To your knowledge, Mr. Jackson, um, were you ever accused of having sexually molested Brett Barnes?” When you watch Jackson here, he acts totally surprised, but it is an act, if you want my opinion. If this was the first time Michael heard this and it was a false allegation, he should be showing anger or bewilderment, if he was innocent, but he doesn’t. He should show some–any –adverse reaction other than surprise, but he doesn’t. Instead, he smiles. He tries to laugh it off. He feigns surprise. That’s a big red flag that makes absolutely no sense! It’s a big tip-off something isn’t right here.

Watch how giddy Jackson gets when he is asked if he ever sexually molested Macaulay Culkin? Would you feel like this if you were truly repulsed by the these thoughts? If you were wrongly accused? If you were being fingered as a child molester when you weren’t??? Would you be laughing about it?

Look at time marker 1:10-1:11. Here Jackson lets out his real emotions. Notice his smile dissipates? That is the real Jackson for an instant, before he reverts back to his false smile. Then he shakes his head no over and over again. Some people may think this is a sign he is honest. However, others may argue that Jackson is mad that he is being called out on his behavior and can’t believe it (denial). Either is a potential here, though I tend toward the latter.

When Michael Jackson talks about crazy stories people have created abaout him, notice how happy-go lucky he acts again? Yet, in a strange twist, isn’t he supposedly angry because people believe all these lies? It sure makes you wonder why Jackson can’t be his authentic self, doesn’t it?

Michael Jackson talks that he didn’t get his skin bleached. Yet if you look up the skin condition, Vitiligo, you see that no one is as white as Jackson became. They aren’t flawlessly white. They had patches of skin that faded, but normal color, too. Logic tells us that Jackson, if he did have the disease, did something to make all his skin uniform, so why doesn’t he just admit to that?

The same goes for Jackson when he says he didn’t have plastic surgery (in other videos). It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see this is untrue. Simple logic is all one needs to identify the truth.

At the end of the video, Jackson says, “Jesus said to love the children and be like children. Be youthful and be innocent and be pure and honorable,” Jackson said. “He was talking to his apostles. And they were fighting over who was the greatest among themselves, and he said, ‘Whoever humbles yourself like this child is the greatest among me.’ And he always surrounded himself with children, and that’s how I was raised, to be like that and to imitate that. I don’t know what you’re trying to make out of this.”

When Jackson finishes this statement, do you see his smirky smile? Does his statement make any sense? Is that a good defense of the accusations? Jackson tells us he doesn’t know what they are trying to make out of this. Give me a break!

Jackson, if you want my opinion, lived in a world of make-believe. Perhaps it was due to his abusive father and a method of escape for him. Perhaps it came from his incredible wealth. With his money, he could surround himself with only people who supported his beliefs, no matter how off the charts they became. Perhaps it is because he has a demon inside that adored children at levels that are abnormal and unhealthy, and dangerous.

Anytime people do not express sincere and genuine emotion, anytime people smile when they should be angry or mad, or anytime people talk in a sweet demure manner over serious topics, take what they say with a grain of salt!

Now with that being said, I must say Michael Jackson did have a profound effect on music, and he should be remembered for his good contributions to the world, too.

My Thoughts: Ted Bundy

The first thing anyone who watches this video needs to take into account is that there are no high stakes for Bundy here, so there is no pressure on him to be honest or to tell the truth. With that, if he were lying, the clues to deception would be dramatically reduced, if not completely undetectable. This is key to keep in mind.

However, when I watch the video, I see a man who is down to earth. I see a man who is sharing his thoughts about his crimes. What he says makes logical sense. Some of you questioned if his words were sincere, because you presumed it was an apology. This is not meant to be an apology.

Read moreOther people questioned if Bundy was just repeating what Dobson wanted to hear, but I don’t think that is the case either. He seems to believe what he is saying, if you want my opinion.

Bundy could have blamed his parents or his upbringing, but he doesn’t. He simply states that he feels pornography played a role in his abnormal behavior, but he admits in the end, his demons even went farther then pornography. I get the sense that just thinking about his crimes still gets Bundy turned on and the positive emotions Bundy expresses when talking about this confuses people into thinking he is lying.

Bundy talks about how he sees himself as a normal person, and identifies that other people didn’t point him out to be a pervert. Bundy grins slightly when he talks about this. I think he enjoys that he could “out smart” people so well. He hid his demons well, and he knew it. We knew it, too, in hindsight. I think this snaky grin has made people question Bundy and disbelieve him as well.

I believe Bundy is honest when he says he lived a normal life, but “this one very small, but potent and destructive segment that I kept very secret, very close to myself…” This is how Bundy sees himself. We may not agree, but that doesn’t make his statement untrue.

I believe Bundy is honest when he says, “It happened in stages. It happened gradually.” I do think that serial killers like Bundy have an addiction, and crave more and more… so this is absolutely logical and plausible, and nothing that makes sense to even doubt.

When Bundy talks about the people he knows in prison who were into violent crime like he was, he says, “Everyone of them was deeply involved in pornography, without question.” He says it with conviction and I believe he feels this way. I see no reason to doubt him whatsoever. I bet it is highly likely there are statistics that violent offenders are often drawn to pornography, though I am not sure if there is a correlation. That’s another topic.

Bundy talks about how people with this violent pornography addiction are not monsters, and he is right. These people are our brothers, sons, uncles and husbands. They live transparently among us. We often don’t know about these people’s demons until it is too late. He is being honest here. These are not people who are bums on the street, who are whacked out and strange living in institutions. They often blend in among us with chilling ease.

Once someone is labeled a liar, it is hard for us to ever believe them again, isn’t it?
