A Lie Spotting Challenge---Can You Spot Deception?

I wanted to share with everyone a challenge to test your detection of deception skills that was posted by my friend Pam Meyers on her website www.liespotting.com

The challenge is to watch a video of Lance Armstrong being interviewed by Larry King regarding his alleged use of performance enhancing drugs and determine whether or not you believe he is being deceptive. Once you have done this, you can then read the expert analysis performed by another good friend, colleague and CIA veteran, Phil Houston.

The Editor and Primary Blogger for "The True Verdict" is Peter Romary.

Peter Romary is an attorney, arbitrator, mediator, diplomat, and internationally recognized expert in the areas of risk management, threat assessment and management, conflict resolution, and litigation risk management. He is also an expert in detection of deception and critical interviewing. He has worked and consulted for government and private-sector clients and has lectured to audiences around the world. In 2002, he was recognized by the National Law Journal as one of the “Top 40 Trial Lawyers Under 40 Years Old” in the U.S. He has been honored for his work in 14 states, and has received the highest civilian honors awarded by many of those states.
