I watched most of the Amanda Knox interview last night with Chris Cuomo, and one element of her interview was really striking to me.  Amanda’s behavior changed dramatically as she answered different questions.

When Amanda spoke from the heart, her words flowed like water–very fluid. But other times, it was clear she was self-censoring every. single. thing. she. said.  That change in behavior stood out like a beacon in the night.

Most people always chose a side when looking at person and trying to determine if they are truthful or deceptive.  The reality is, however, that people who are deceptive often sprinkle their story with the truth, too. It sells better.  Deception detection is never all black or all white. It’s almost always a mix, but people are usually on one side of the fence of the other.  She’s either ALL honest, or ALL lying –which couldn’t be further from the truth!

I honestly think Amanda Knox would have been much better to stay quiet. What she reveals in her interviews doesn’t do her any favors whatsoever.

The most ridiculous comment Amanda made last night was when she stays in hotels she cries so hard that people in neighboring rooms report her.  Have you ever heard such nonsense?   Yes, she may be crying, but intentionally loud so people will say “I heard her cry”.  It’s absurd.

Having seen Amanda Knox speak out now, I feel stronger than ever that she is not leveling with us about what she knows happened the night Meredith was murdered.  She knows more than she’s telling, if you ask me without question.
