Interesting, but I wonder how fallible it is

Very interesting. But then in most cases mentioned here, I did not feel anything was wrong. I do talk like the "suspects" in this article, i.e, without the "my/I" in each n every sentence n such... Does that mean I could be a possible suspect ??

From the page: "Special Agent Adams teaches statement analysis as part of interviewing and interrogation courses at the FBI Academy. " I like to read about this sort of stuff. The thing that really bothers me about it is that arrests and convictions can be based statements made by suspects which are then interpreted subjectively. It is not an exact science. Everyone knows it's legal for the police to lie to a suspect during an interrogation. If you don't, now you do. Never speak to the police on a serious issue without an attorney present. The police are doing their job, and their job is to get an indictment and subsequent conviction. Being only human, they will and have made mistakes. Don't be one of them.

Seems bullshity to me, as vocabulary and syntax can vary a lot. Deviating from the "norm", the norm according to whom ? Based on what data ?
