Welcome back to Deadly Serious! This week, I'm joined by former police officer, behavioural analyst and 'human lie detector' Steve Van Aperen to explore the fascinating world of deception, criminal investigations and the science behind spotting a lie. From homicide cases and police interviews to body language, behavioural cues and the biggest misconceptions people have about detecting deception, Steve shares what investigators really look for when trying to separate truth from lies, and why we're often not as good at spotting dishonesty as we think.

 

Thank you so much for listening and I can't wait to chat to you again next Tuesday xx

 

This episode discusses homicide investigations, child abuse, sexual offences and other distressing themes. Listener discretion is advised.
