Tonight Brian had us begin the class with a exercise where a scenario of a police officer telling a civilian that someone dearest to them has passed away suddenly, whether it be a mother, father, etc. He then turned our attention to a very interesting lecture about how to detect a lair. Some of the key indicators to look for in a liar were:

-Physical expression
-Body language
-Emotional gestures & contradictions
-Interactions & reactions
-Verbal context and content
- and they use "just kidding" after stating the confession that is actually what happened believe it or not.

We than participated in another exercise where a police officer got a statement from one of us who pretended to be a car jacker that was caught in a bait car committing multiple offences. I enjoyed the class tonight and I look forward to the class next week with Rupert, on use of force.
