Tiffany Hartley on CNN
Tiffany Hartley defies all that we know about emotional understanding as she recalls painful, scary and stressful events the day she saw her husband get killed, yet she is eerily missing any emotional recall.
When people are truly sad, we know they produce oblique eyebrows. In simple terms, it means your eyebrows knit together into an “A” shape above your nose. In fear, our eyes widen and our mouth pulls back. Even months and years after a tragedy, most people will show flickers of true and genuine emotional recall when talking about an emotional experience.
Yet when we look at Tiffany, she is eerily missing genuine indicators of sadness and she doesn’t express any fear. Tiffany has not displayed them when talking about her husband since his death (in the interviews I have seen). It’s a notable red flag. Tiffany shows very few true indicators that she was shocked, stressed, saddened or afraid by what happened. When we watch her family members, however, the indicators are overly abundant, as we would expect.
People could argue in defense of Tiffany that she is emotionally in shock, but shocked people do not talk so freely about the horrifying details of the event like Tiffany does, because shock means they cannot accept what happened. Clearly Tiffany can talk about everything, including the bullet hole to her husband’s head that she found, up close and personally.
When people feel genuine emotions, science has identified that we all react the same. We all use the same muscles and those muscles often cannot be voluntarily contracted for most people. Even more interesting is that when we fake emotions, we don’t realize we are giving away tell-tale signs that we aren’t really feeling what we say we are feeling.
This is a fascinating interview because Tiffany is a classic example of this. She can recall seeing her husband being shot and killed, and she even recalls having a gun pointed at her and her life threatened, but she has no emotional reaction. No sadness, no fear, no stress, no anger…nothing. Biologically, it doesn’t make sense unless Tiffany feels something she isn’t telling us.
TIFFANY’S SLIP OF THE TONGUE
Furthermore, in this interview, Tiffany Hartley self-censors herself and what she says is fascinating. It’s a subconscious slip, a leak, if you ask me. She says, “I think it just hasn’t hit me. It just seems like how on earth……did we d– this happen? It just doesn’t seem real. It seems like it hasn’t connected…in my brain.”
Did it not appear that she censored herself from saying, “How on earth did we do this?”
Do this? What did Tiffany and David do? Did they pull something off? Why would she be leaking this?
I personally (in my own opinion) do not believe Tiffany Hartley has told us the truth about what she knows happened that day. I have said that from day one and I still will say that I have yet to see one interview with Tiffany that isn’t littered with hotspot after hotspot after hotspot.
