Tony Blair

Tony Blair - In this pic Mr Blair is focussing at apoint in the distance. He seems to be pre-occupied with an issue. The brows are furrowed; Mouth is pinched and slightly pouting; left side pulling mouth skew. He is cynically doubting whatever he is thinking about. There is some presence of left eye syndrome. Left brow is set lower with less gap present between brow and lid. The left eye appears to be unfocussed inwardly. The left side mouth extension is noticeably shorter than right side. There is an absence of muscle contraction below left eye. The left side facial presentation is more striking than the right side. The combination of activated and non-activated muscles suggests that the person may be deeply introspective, considering words carefully, is possibly cunning, possibly quite manipulative. The person is acutely aware of his facial presentation and is trying to control his presentation. Not a natural expression. Possibly contrived.

Sunday Rapist - Johannes Steyn

In other pics I have seen of Sunday Rapist, Johannes Steyn, his face is drawn in a contemptuous, hateful sneer. here I see left eye outwardly unfocussed, almost staring, expressionless. right side mouth extension is slightly longer than lhs and ends with slight upturn. Shorter left side ends in slight downturn. Right side face has an almost soft expression except for the eye which has no surrounding muscles activated and is slightly menacing. The left side face is acutely menacing with its unfocussed eye. I imagine this is the expression Steyn would use when sizing up a potential victim. No empathy. No remorse. Quite surely a clinical psychopath

James Holmes

Left Eye Syndrome: Left eye lower set, outwardly focussed, lower set brow with less 'inquiring' arch. Forehead muscles are tensed with some brow arousal - but without any sign of other facial muscles being activated. Emotionless. Lower jaw is crooked suggesting some skull deformation or old injury. Chin offset to left. Philtrum runs at angle between nose and top lip. Low left ear set suggests FAS. Unbalanced psyche. He will in all likelihood be declared insane. I suspect strong possibility of multi-personality disorder. May be highly intelligent, but without emotional intelligence. Holmes had an enviable academic record, but in recent times began to display weird behaviour. He was under pschiatric treatment. I contend that his mental state continued to degrade to the point where he could no longer define reality, lost his sense of right vs wrong and finally his brain malfunctioned, probably permanently. Here we see a previously brilliant student that to all intents and purposes is struggling to keep up with courtroom processes. He appears confused and sleepy, surprised and afraid.

Eyes, Hands, MFE's, Speech

Re press article that appeared in various SA newspapers in July 2012. The story reported research carried out by a UK psychologist after which he stated that hand movements are the most reliable indicator of deception. He als dismissed eye movements as an indicator. I found the article to be interesting, but somewhat inaccurate in terms of the findings presented. Hand movements in isolation are not a reliable indicator of deception just as much as isolated eye movements are also not reliable indicators. If for example a subject keeps his arms folded; or keeps his hands in his pockets or fingers clasped together on table ... then hand movement detection in isolation is totally useless. It has long been accepted in the Detection Of Deception (DOD) arena that a multi-disciplined approach is by far the most reliable route to DOD. The integration of multiple disciplines and research (literature) gave meaning to gestures and (micro)reactions of the body (Turchet). Ekman, Friesen and prestigious authors like D. Morris, Edward Hall, Ray Birdhwhistell, Gregory Bateson had contributed significantly to this field already and many continue to do so. The Diogenes Project (later named the Truth Wizards project) carried out research on some 20,000 people and discovered that a mere 5% have the ability to detect lies with any degree of reliability and by use of multi-disciplines: Statement Analysis, Kinesics and physiognomy. Kinesics covers the study of all body movements, which is further whittled down into specialised areas such as hand-arm, major muscles and micro facial expressions (MFE’s). Physiognomy is the study of faces, including FACS (Facial Action Coding System) for defining emotions and in turn, the emotions that are displayed when practising deception. FACS was devised by Dr Paul Eckman over thirty years ago. Dr Eckman’s work is still used and taught worldwide. Interestingly, Dr Eckman and various teams declared over time that the expressions were cross cultural, but nowadays it is accepted that there are distinct differences between western and eastern cultures. To try to single out any one particular discipline as being the most reliable DOD approach is simply disingenuous. It’s like trying to reinvent the wheel. http://emotion-research.net/projects/humaine/ws/wp3/ExtraMaterial/HUMAINE-Kaiser.pdf http://www.non-verbal.info/2012/01/emotions-7-universal-primary-emotions.html#!/2012/01/emotions-7-universal-primary-emotions.html http://www.persuasive.net/it-is-written-all-over-your-face-understanding-facial-expressions http://www.economist.com/node/18925759

No muscles around eyes are active. Expressionless face. Skewed mouth area expression=leaking emotion. David Williams allegedly tried to hire a policeman to kill his wife for R12,000. He is currently being tried for conspiracy to commit murder. Ironically, he has in the meantime sued his wife for R10,000 p/mth maintenance as they were married in COP and she is the only breadwinner.

Shamrita Singh

Shamrita Singh Basic Analysis Left side face is more engaged and focussed than rhs. Left brow presents a peaked arch. Rhs brow presents a curved arch. The peaked arch represents the intellectual and emotionally dominant side The left eye is scrutinising. The right brow is a curved arch, representing the soft side of this persons nature. Both ‘brows up’ + eye openings up (smiling) suggests well balanced, good natured, with balance between emotion and emotional intellect. The left eye presents a wary expression. This person is aware of situations. She is approachable, friendly, but circumspect, wary. The full lower lip trailing to narrow with long narrowed section suggests critical and analytical. There is no permanent furrow between brows, suggesting that the person is open and receptive as opposed to closed, unreceptive, brooding. (Persons with perm furrow and lowered, intense brows suggest complicated personality, closed, hidden agendas. Also associated with deception.) The LH face is the dominant side. More intensely focussed. Mouth extensions are equal in length. Balanced outlook. Left upper lip muscle tensed. Subject may smirk on lhs from time to time. Left side to right side face present markedly different expressions – both sides reflecting emotional intelligence. Centre of top lip is peaked, slightly tensed, suggesting a degree of playfulness of character. This subject can be intense – emotionally and intellectually but with the easy ability to express joy and humour. The chin is extended slightly outwards, displaying confidence, but not overtly. The overall expression is one of openness, without concealment of emotion . The smile is contained, not gushing, but suggests a good measure of genuine interest in others. The expression suggests capability of intense scrutiny. Not to be taken lightly by others. Open minded. Honest. Loving and caring. Trustworthy while not being immediately trusting of others.
