  1. This isn't the usual type of suggestion, but I thought you might find it as fascinating as I did :) Back in 2001, a man named Charles Ingram won a million pounds on the British version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire.You can watch the video of the whole episode on YouTube, starting with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUHz2RSsS1k&feature=related. The actual episode starts at 5:00 (before that, it's documentary footage concerning the situation), and he starts answering questions at 6:40. It starts getting really interesting in the next section (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q0K_I4DMX4&feature=related). The whole thing is on the long side, unfortunately. You…

  2. Chris Brown issued an apology via video today. I just don't find his body language convincing of his sincerity or remorse. What do you think? http://www.tmz.com/videos?autoplay=true&mediaKey=44b397df-cddb-48b7-970a-f1271464115c

  4. I've been following this story about Jeffrey J. Marsalis, who is known as the "worst date rapist" ever in this country. Watching the case, I was curious what you would make of him. Watching his case, I saw (what I thought were) lies on both the sides, his accusers and he himself. A link to a video of him speaking can be found here: http://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/story?id=8069223&page=1

    Joe Jackson is hiding behind his sunglasses so his true emotions are not able to be seen on his face. However, his words seem to be said without any thought. He’s used to be “being on stage” so-to-speak when he talks to the public, and here he does come across as cold and callous. I don’t think he is a compassionate or caring man, if you want my opinion.

  6. His denial of the 1993 child molestation charges. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScH1j9Xm2xY

    Michael Jackson always presented a facade. He was never true and authentic. He lived in a fantasy world most of his life, and people who live like this are often unable to cope with the truth.

    In this interview, I see Jackson is upset, but he could be upset at his invasion of privacy so we can’t say this is any indication of his innocence. When he says he will prove these allegations are a lie, he shrugs his shoulders, which is indicative he has doubts.

    I would need to see more. I personally did not trust Michael Jackson.

  7. Very brutal murder of this couple took place in October 2006. Officers responded to the home and found Ron and Christine Jabalee assaulted and slain in their garage. According to police, the couple knew their killer. There was no forced entry into the home.A clue was left behind by one of the victims, a message written in blood on the garage floor. Part of the message was located under one of the parked vehicles in the garage.Police believe Christine wrote the message and probably had broken fingers, and may have put them together to write. It is hard to decipher.…

  8. Obviously, this isn't a person but rather something related to lie detection - detecting emotions - using a fully-researched theory of emotions.

    The full title is "Robert Plutchik's Psychoevolutionary Theory of Emotion". You can google for more information, but you'll find a really good visual poster online at http://www.box.net/shared/o9vxfqtglb

    Dr. Plutchik spent his entire career of over 30 years researching emotions. The basic concept he formed is that there are only 8 basic emotions arranged in opposing pairs. Humans can express either one or two emotions at any given moment. Thus, the basic 8 plus combinations yield 32 distinct emotional…

  9. http://www.comcast.net/video/james-von-brunns-son-unforgivable/1152894764

    Son of James von Brunn, who opened fire at the Holocaust Museum. He condemns his father's actions, but I'm curious what you think. He shows almost no emotion at all, and I'm having a hard time reading him, especially considering how much I WANT him to be telling the truth.

  10. 17 year old who killed his 15 year old girlfriends father. Claims it was accidental/self defense. it is long 21 minutes, and it is full of stuff. at 1.15 particularly. Overall he seems really believable. thanks. Josie.

    I personally don’t think Matthew Fox intended to kill this man. I think an argument ensued and he reacted. However, I am not confident he is telling us the full details of what happened during the fight. I do think the man likely got a knife out and threatened him. But after that, I am not so confident as to what happened. Perhaps, he feels if he did tell all the details, he would be held more accountable. I don’t know.

    I suspect he is going to be held accountable for this crime, though.

    BBC has some video, that's linked at the site above. I know you'd posted about it before, but it's heating up.

  14. 5 yr old Nevaeh Buchanan was found dead in Monroe Michigan. Her mother's friend George Kennedy, a RSO, was arrested because of a parole violation. This is his girlfriend who provides him with an alibi

    So do you think he had anything to do with it or impossible?
    Umm, no, I do not think he did, he didn't seem like he was that type of guy to do anything like that, so
    And he was with you?
    Yeah he was with me.

    This is a red flag for me because it seems an awfully tentative answer for someone who should…

  15. On the recent Britains Got Talent, this 10 year old girl forgot her lines mid-song and then burst out crying.

    There has been much speculation over whether or not it was a true breakdown, or just a little girl having a tantrum because she made a mistake

    What do you think?

    I think she freaked out because she got nervous and forgot her lines and wanted to do the song again. I don’t think there is anything fake about that. She messed up the first time and wanted a second try and I think the judges forgave her because it was her first singing only debut. I don’t think she ever actually cried. She whimpered a bit…

  16. I have had fun feeling sorry for Jon over the years. in a lot of episodes, I have gotten the feeling of rage when Kate cuts him off. I don't have video links, but I was wondering if you could see what emotions he is showing while being interviewed and he is saying that their lives have become a business.

  19. Matty Johns beloved Aussie NRL player group sex allegations. Women claims that she did not consent. Police who investigated have cleared charges. Incident happened 7 years ago, women is now giving interviews. I am a huge fan and am devistated that it is insinuated that he gang raped her if it is not ture, please please please. This is huge in Australia and would interest so many of us. It has had constant coverage for a week

  20. I was wondering if you could view this video of Kate's brother and his wife.

    As you may already know, Jon is alleged to have had an affair and Kate in this week's upcoming People magazine says the marriage may be over.

    I am wondering your thoughts on what Kevin and Jodi had to say about it. I am surprised that they went to tabloids to state their side and that leads me to believe that they were convinced by money.

    I have not given credence to past rumours and had you view another video of Jodi when she responded…
