It is very risky, not enough time to even find anchors, ties, etc.

The burglar could have hoped to get some reputation in jail? Or simply was bored, have nothing to do, the case was famous and all over the TV etc and he was trying to incorporate himself into that dubious “fame”

Bet it was just tales they are telling each other to kill time…
(Didn’t watch your video)- is there anything solid besides “he said”?)


From the comment section beneath the video:

> How about he told Amber he “lost his wife” BEFORE she went missing? How about the camera that caught him smiling, laughing and on the phone with Amber at Lacey's vigil? How about he sold Lacy’s truck BEFORE he knew she wouldn’t be found alive? How about he owned a boat no one knew he had... Lacey's mum said she didn't know about the boat. He never went fishing before and had told others he went golfing, not fishing that day. Too many “coincidences” here.


And my favorite:

> If Scott Peterson is innocent then I’m Zanny the Nanny.

Why is Scott Peterson still alive - he should have been given the death penalty!

He was.

> In 2020, the California Supreme Court overturned Peterson’s death sentence after finding that potential jurors were erroneously dismissed, partly because they expressed general objections to the death penalty on a questionnaire.

> But the state’s high court upheld the convictions, finding the trial itself was fair. In 2021, Peterson was resentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Interesting observations by Dr. G, psychologist & body language expert.
Yes, the steady gaze of a psychopath resonates. I noticed it before checking Dr. G's take .. & wondered how it made Diane Sawyer feel.

> on Jan. 8, 2003, about two weeks after he reported his wife missing, Scott Peterson changed their account to include the Playboy Channel and altered the service again five days later to include more explicit adult channels, Toy said.

I guess he wasn't expecting the missus to return anytime soon.

I believe Peterson did it too. However, the idea of calling someone a "psychopath" based on the way they gaze is silly. It means nothing to me. It wouldn't be the first time a psychologist claimed to know something he really had no clue about. Thank goodness we don't put people in prison based on the way that they gaze.

WADR My guess is that you didn't watch the video. Neither myself or the doctor made any such statement.

Nevertheless there is research that lends credibility to the psychopath's gaze.

Researchers have long noted that psychopathic individuals display certain behaviors during nonverbal communication, including the so-called psychopathic stare. The study analyzed video interviews with 507 inmates, using tracking algorithms to measure head movements. Inmates who scored high in antisocial traits — a facet of psychopathy — tended to keep their heads still.

Studies have documented that psychopaths’ pupils do not dilate when viewing scary or graphic images and that they tend to hold gazes uncomfortably long — especially when engaging in deception or persuasion.

A new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality offers new insights into the psychopathic stare, finding that inmates who scored high in psychopathic traits tended not to move their heads much during forensic interviews. It is a finding that may be connected to the neurological underpinnings of the condition.


BIG THINK

The study was not designed to determine why psychopathic individuals with especially high antisocial traits limited their head movements. But the researchers proposed a hypothesis: amygdala dysfunction, “a hallmark neurobiological feature of psychopathy, affecting emotional processing, reinforcement learning, and interpersonal interactions.”
