In this interview, Bruce gives us a lot of inconsistencies when he speaks. I was amazed at how much he revealed in just the intro segment alone.

When Bruce says, “I did not kill my wife. I really didn’t” we actual see a flicker of positive emotion which instantly raises my eyebrows. Not only that, he is shrugging his shoulders and uses the word “really” which stands out to me in his denial. They weaken his denial considerably. He should be emphatic that he did not kill his wife, if he didn’t, but we don’t see a hint of that. Instead we see one contradictory clue after another.

I think this picture says it all. It was taken when he says, “I really didn’t.”  His shoulder is shrugging.

This snapshot of him speaking at this moment shows his lack of confidence without question, and it shows his positive emotion as well.  You can feel him almost pleading, “Do you believe me???”

 
Bruce continues, “At the time of our trip, we were getting along splendidly.”  The word “splendidly” immediately catches my eye.Watch him shrug his shoulders again as he speaks.

I certainly do not believe Bruce at all. I do believe Monica’s sister, without hesitation.

Bruce says,  “The next morning she wasn’t back and now I was really (shoulder shrug) nervous.”  This is interesting on two fronts.  He didn’t get “nervous” until morning?  And why would he get “nervous”?  I would expect worry, concern, or fear, but not nervousness.  But I believe Bruce was nervous that morning, ironically, but for different reasons. Also the word “now” stands out.  Wouldn’t you be distressed after your wife didn’t return after a couple of hours–especially if she didn’t have her cell phone?  Why would he suddenly become nervous in the morning?  Hmmm….

Watch Bruce’s shoulders when he said, “All of the sudden, everything that you know, everything that you love, everything that you care about sort of disappears.”

Every statement Bruce makes (and we’ve only seen less than a minute or two of him talking) leaks clues like a sieve. His last statement above is no exception.  “All of the sudden” stands out to me.  Monica’s disappearance didn’t develop all of the sudden by the account he tells us, which makes his words odd to me.  They stand out.

His story is that she went out shopping and never came back.  Most people would be thinking maybe their loved one got lost, got in trouble, etc and would be frantic trying to see if they could find them and help them.   The situation would develop over a few hours.  It wouldn’t be all of a sudden. But if Bruce killed her, it would be “all of the sudden”. 

I also noticed how he talks about everything he knew and loved suddenly disappeared.  Did you notice that he didn’t say “the woman I loved”?  He seems to be talking about things being gone–since he is in jail!

Bruce also says “sort of” disappear.  How do things “sort of” disappear?

What is the likelihood Monica would disappear out shopping for a day and her body would end up in the sewer on the property of the hotel where she was staying? I would think that would be remote. It’s not impossible, but remote, if you ask me.  I think of Monica being abducted by someone. The abductor isn’t  going to say hey where are you staying–let’s go there so people you are traveling with can identify us and hey, while I’m there, I’m going to dispose of your body.  That’s the last place on earth someone would bring Monica back to.  But if Bruce killed her, it was the most accessible way to dump her body as he didn’t have many options, did he?

As Bruce talks about Monica’s body being found, he says, “I sort of slumped.  I sort of collapsed…..I just…went…… kinda blank.”

Ouch! I don’t think that needs any explanation.

I do not believe a word out of Bruce’s mouth.  In the few short sentences he has said to date, not one has shown any consistency with what he wants us to believe.

My heart goes out to Monica’s family.
