A company called ID Analytics did a study and found that 1 in 15 people intentionally commit fraud on their credit application by providing another social security number or date of birth–often to avoid credit rejection or to obtain the right to more credit.
The study included 267 million adults and in that group, they believe 8% are not a result of accidents. They uncovered several people who were using over 100 social security numbers!
Roy Kronk took the stand today, and I absolutely believe he is telling the truth. He is a stickler for details, ironically, and he rightfully corrects the defense attorney who questions him about calling 911. He insists he did not call 911 and the defense attorney finally concedes he called the non-emergency number after checking with the prosecution.
I am not an expert in identifying disorders, but I have to wonder if Roy Kronk could have a mild form of Asperger’s syndrome. He seems social awkward, like social interactions may be more challenging for him. He also seems emotionally dull. When I watch him on the stand, his eyebrows are displaying stress to me. I get the sense he doesn’t quite understand what the defense doesn’t get. In his mind, he is stating the facts, so what is there to question? People with this condition may also get interested in something, and get very absorbed into it– which is what I suspect happened with Kronk and his desire to find Caylee’s body. He was probably more attuned to nuances than the average person and that is why his persistence and curiosity paid off. People with this condition are often more intelligent than average, too, and when you watch Kronk recall his details, he is steadfast with them.
You may notice Roy Kronk licking his lips. To me, this is simply a sign of nervousness. If you notice, when he does it, the questioning attorney has raised his voice, and I suspect Kronk is unconsciously stressing from that…feeling pressure.
I believe Roy Kronk is honest in the video above.
I will review George Anthony tomorrow.
Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich is likely frustrated today, as he demonstrates in the photo above, because a federal jury convicted him of 17 out of 20 counts. He was accused of trying to selling Barack Obama’s senate seat. Thankfully, the jury saw it correctly this time, and there wasn’t a hold out juror like we saw in the first trial.
Purse lips (to me as seen above) are a clear sign that a person is feeling frustrated and misunderstood. Blago knew people weren’t buying his story, though he arrogantly continued to try to sway the crowd in stubborn defiance–likely because it always worked before. Just this time he got in too far over his head.
I analyzed “Blago” in January 2009 when he was appearing in the media frequently claiming his innocence. His behavior gave him away without a doubt. He refused to answer direction questions, he talked like a Dutch Uncle who believed he could sell you the Brooklyn Bridge, but gave us nothing of substance to believe him except arrogant denial. Today Blago found out that he was the one who was a fool.
Watch Blago talk on Larry King LIVE. He gives us a subconscious leak that tells us what he really thinks about his “hands” in corruption. Did he think they were “clean”? You tell me…

48 Hours profiled the story of Dr. Mark Wrangler and his wife, Kathy in May. Now Dateline is running the story tonight.
Kathy ended up dying in the family home of carbon monoxide poisoning. Dr. Wrangler was an anesthesiologist, and was eventually convicted of killing his wife by directing the flow of carbon monoxide to the upstairs where Kathy slept. I have no doubts the jury got it correct.
I thought you might enjoy listening to his 911 call. It’s loaded with hotspots! Which ones do you see? There are many of them…
Cindy Anthony took the stand today, a day after her attorney, Mark Lippman told CNN that the Anthony’s don’t believe their daughter is innocent, and what she said was surprising.
Cindy claims that she is the one who did searches on the computer for Chlorophyll, which ultimately lead to chloroform, and other searches. Her excuse is that her little Yorkie wast acting sluggish and she wondered if it was due to the bamboo in her yard. Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants.
Do I believe Cindy?
Absolutely not. Here are my thoughts:
I do not believe Cindy Anthony. These are one-in-a-million odds that are so far fetched, the potential this is true are slim to none. I think the majority of people will see this. You don’t need eyes for lies.
