Lastest News on Tiffany and David Hartley Case

October 8, 2012/in murder/by Eyes for Lies

KLTV.com-Tyler, Longview, Jacksonville, Texas | ETX News

Many of you probably remember the story told by Tiffany Hartley over two years ago now.  She told of the nightmare of being chased by pirates on Falcon Lake in Mexico while they were sightseeing and riding their jet skis. David Hartley protected Tiffany, and was fatally hit by gun fire and died.  Tiffany tried to rescue David, but couldn’t do it and was forced to flea.  She said the pirates cornered her, but let her go.

I’ve always found Tiffany’s story inconsistent and full of hot spots.

According to news outlets, the Mexican authorities have made an arrest of one of the top Zeta drug cartel leaders who controlled the area and is believed to have killed over 200 people.  Police in Mexico are blaming him for causing David’s death.

You can read more here.

Sigifredo Gonzalez, sheriff of Zapata County, Texas has always believed in Tiffany’s innocent and he is now saying, “Based on the information I have, he may have been the one responsible for that area, but not the one responsible for the actual killing,” said Sigifredo Gonzalez, sheriff of Zapata County, Texas.

What do you think of the latest developments?

Tiffany Hartley on CNN

May 13, 2011/in murder/by Eyes for Lies

Tiffany Hartley defies all that we know about emotional understanding as she recalls painful, scary and stressful events the day she saw her husband get killed, yet she is eerily missing any emotional recall.

When people are truly sad, we know they produce oblique eyebrows.  In simple terms, it means your eyebrows knit together into an “A” shape above your nose.   In fear, our eyes widen and our mouth pulls back.  Even months and years after a tragedy, most people will show flickers of true and genuine emotional recall when talking about an emotional experience.

Yet when we look at Tiffany, she is eerily missing genuine indicators of sadness and she doesn’t express any fear.  Tiffany has not displayed them when talking about her husband since his death (in the interviews I have seen).  It’s a notable red flag.  Tiffany shows very few true indicators that she was shocked, stressed, saddened or afraid by what happened.  When we watch her family members, however, the indicators are overly abundant, as we would expect.

People could argue in defense of Tiffany that she is emotionally in shock, but shocked people do not talk so freely about the horrifying details of the event like Tiffany does, because shock means they cannot accept what happened.  Clearly Tiffany can talk about everything, including the bullet hole to her husband’s head that she found, up close and personally.

When people feel genuine emotions, science has identified that we all react the same. We all use the same muscles and those muscles often cannot be voluntarily contracted for most people.  Even more interesting is that when we fake emotions, we don’t realize we are giving away tell-tale signs that we aren’t really feeling what we say we are feeling.

This is a fascinating interview because Tiffany is a classic example of this.  She can recall seeing her husband being shot and killed, and she even recalls having a gun pointed at her and her life threatened, but she has no emotional reaction.  No sadness, no fear, no stress, no anger…nothing. Biologically, it doesn’t make sense unless Tiffany feels something she isn’t telling us.

TIFFANY’S SLIP OF THE TONGUE

Furthermore, in this interview, Tiffany Hartley self-censors herself and what she says is fascinating. It’s a subconscious slip, a leak, if you ask me. She says, “I think it just hasn’t hit me. It just seems like how on earth……did we d– this happen? It just doesn’t seem real. It seems like it hasn’t connected…in my brain.”

Did it not appear that she censored herself from saying, “How on earth did we do this?”

Do this?  What did Tiffany and David do? Did they pull something off? Why would she be leaking this?

I personally (in my own opinion) do not believe Tiffany Hartley has told us the truth about what she knows happened that day.  I have said that from day one and I still will say that I have yet to see one interview with Tiffany that isn’t littered with hotspot after hotspot after hotspot.

Tiffany Hartley’s Big Slip of the Tongue

Tiffany Hartley: Six Months Later

March 31, 2011/in murder/by Eyes for Lies

Tiffany Hartley went to the Colorado capital yesterday to put pressure on public officials to bring David’s body home.It’s been six months since David Hartley was allegedly killed in Mexico while the couple was jet skiing on Falcon Lake, a notoriously dangerous area.

Recalling the past six months, Tiffany strangely says, “It’s gone so fast, I can’t even believe we’re at six months.”

As usual, Tiffany reacts completely different than most people.  Most people when they have gone through a tragedy don’t feel like time has flown.  It usually stands still as they grieve and cope with their loss, but for Tiffany, oddly, time has flown by.  It makes you wonder if she has been having fun? You know the old saying, “Time flies when you are having fun.”  Hard to imagine.

Tiffany has given different accounts of what happened that day in the various interviews she have given and they definitely have my eyebrows raised high. I feel something is off.

I was glad to hear that according to this news report, the FBI says this is currently an ongoing investigation.
