Statement Analysis

Clifton Coetzee Friday 11 May 2012 Richard Mdluli is quoted in an iAfrica news article as saying, inter alia: "For the past 33 years I have been in the police, I have never pulled the trigger and killed a person in my life," Analysis: "I never pulled the trigger" ( very specific ) vs I never pulled a trigger =This suggests he knows who pulled a (the) trigger in a specific incident or incidents. "I never pulled the trigger and killed a person" = the person was killed by other means, or I klilled him but not by gunshot. = The words strongly imply collusion or participation. Mdluli is older than 33yrs. The words (out of sequence now) "For the past 33 yrs I never killed a person in my life" are contradictory. It suggests that he never killed anyone in his first 33 yrs of life. RULE: There is no coincidence in a persons words. Everything said has a meaning and is reference to real life activities (past). A cognitive process takes place before words are uttered. We can say that Mdluli has a strong inner desire to tell his stories truthfully. The need to lie conflicts strongly with one's inner emotions - therefore it is not easy to lie.

Rebekah Brooks

I have perused many photos of Rebekah Brooks. Her face usually presents as symmetrical and balanced. usually composed. Often her hair hides a portion of her face. This may be a fashion statement or it may be the curtain she hides behind.
In one photo attached she appears to be smiling and contented. Normal.

In the other photo, I see that the lhs eye is not in synch with the rhs eye.
The lhs eye is fixated and staring. The mouth wears a forced smile as the eyes are not smiling. The zygoma are not activated. I dont know whether Ms Brooks uses botox, which of course would negate any facial analysis.

In the pic where she is wearing a blue top (clutching plastic bag)the face is apprehensive. The contradictions in the four quadrangles suggest that the subject has distinctly different personalities that may come into play at different times.

UK Paedophile Gang

This is a screenshot taken of the 8 men arrested in the UK in connection with running a child prostitution ring. The picture is of low quality, yet one is still able to conduct a degree of facial analysis. Note the commonality of Left Eye Syndrome to most of these men.

Barack Obama

The face is generally symmetrical and well balanced. Both left and right faces are focussed and involved. The overall impression is that of a balanced and contented person.

The Eyes, The Lies, Analyse (Truth Extraction Contd)

Truth Extraction (Reading Between The Lies)was published circa 2000 by me, Clifton Coetzee (A Forensic Fraud Investigator), assisted by Malcolm Russel (A radio Broadcaster).


Subsequently, I established a 'Truth Extraction' investigative training module on MS Powerpoint and conducted many Truth Extraction training workshops and seminars during 2000 - 2008.

Truth Extraction techniques employ techniques of Statement Content Analysis; Statement Veracity Analysis (Criteria Based Content Analysis ); Kinesics (micro facial expressions, FACS and physiognomy). The latter leading me to conduct a study of faces and specific facial features, in turn leading me to initiate my 'Left Eye Syndrome' theory.

Subsequent to 2000, my work has led me to carry out an extensive edit of my first book and to add new content, including comparisons between SCAN and Voice Stress Analysis (VSA), specifically with a new automated VSA technology 'AVSAPRO'

My new work is titled TRUTH EXTRACTION Contnd (The Lies, The Eyes, Analyse)
In my latest book I place more emphasis on the visual cues than previously was the case.

SANRAL - Nazir Ali

In this case, the eye syndrom characteristics present on both sides, which represents appr 5% of persons displaying the tendency overall. Note that whilst the left eyebrow is lower, it is the right eye that is out of synch with the overall expression. The left eye is smiling, although the eye is hooded. The right eye has a fixated stare. The corresponding mouth outer edges are in synch with each eye expression.

Left mouth is smiling. Right mouth presents a smirk. Left side upper and lower eye muscles are activated, while right side is static. The overall expression is a contradiction.

Left Eye Syndrome

Still to be peer reviewed theory. Examine the persons face from square front on position. Observe the horizontal plane above the eyebrows. Usually the lhs eyebrow is noticeably lower than rhs. The left eye is eithe smaller and on a different plane (with a siamese appearance) Or, the left eye is much wider than the rhs and has a 'staring' appearance. In both cases above, the left eye appears to be flat and unfocussed, or outwardly unfocussed (outward squint) The left side of mouth usually ends well within the vertical line of outer eye edge. The left side of mouth often does not extend much beyond the outer edge of corresponding nostril. By contrast, the right side mouth edge extends beyond the outer edge of rs nostril and often in line or beyond the vertical line of outer eye edge. When the face is divided vertically, the left side appears disconnected and/or with a hint of menace. The right side face appears to be happy or content. Caution: As most (90%+) people are right handed, people that were on the receiving end of a facial assault would more than likely display any lasting injury effect to the left side face, usually around the eye area. I welcome readers to send me interesting face pics for discussion or analysis.
