Sheindlin emphasizes that eye contact is paramount when assessing credibility. "When someone's lying to you, they're not going to look you straight in the eye," she asserts. "They'll try to deflect because the truth comes in the eyes."

Moreover, physiological responses can also betray deception. "Women often get flushed right around here when they're telling a lie," Sheindlin says, pointing to the chest area. "Men often start to sweat, they get a little bit of a glistening, looking from side-to-side."

Beyond these physical cues, Sheindlin notes that liars often display certain behavioral patterns. "They tend to be very eager to tell their story, and they want to get it all out in one breath," she explains. "They may also try to change the subject or avoid discussing specific details."

Sheindlin advises that it's important to pay attention to inconsistencies in someone's narrative. "If their story doesn't add up or if it changes over time, that's a red flag," she says.

Furthermore, she notes that body language can also provide valuable insights. "People who are lying may exhibit fidgeting, excessive hand gestures, or a lack of congruence between their verbal and nonverbal communication," she explains.

However, Sheindlin cautions against relying solely on these cues. "It's important to remember that not everyone who displays these signs is necessarily lying," she says. "It's always a combination of factors that you need to look at."

Sheindlin emphasizes the value of intuition and experience in detecting deception. "The more you see it, the easier it becomes to recognize," she says. "But it's also important to approach every case with an open mind and to consider all the evidence."

By understanding the telltale signs of lying, Sheindlin believes that people can become more discerning and less susceptible to deception. "It's empowering to be able to see through someone's lies and to not be taken advantage of," she says.
