Most lies concern the main event. What happens before and after is usually less prepared.
By extending the period:
Contradictions are detected.
Changes in the story.
Unusual hesitations.
Authentic memories generally include context. Lies focus on the essentials.
What NOT to do:
Don’t make direct accusations without evidence.
Don’t constantly interrupt.
Don’t look for “universal signs” like avoiding eye contact (this doesn’t always indicate a lie).
Effective detection relies on narrative inconsistencies, not isolated gestures.
An important warning:
No technique is infallible.

Some nervous people may give the impression of lying.
Some trained people can lie with great consistency.
The best tool is not aggressive confrontation, but patient observation.
Final thought:
This viral expression simplifies a complex process.
It’s not about capturing, but about understanding.
The truth tends to remain stable over time.
Lies require constant maintenance.
And when a story changes under the pressure of simple questions… it’s usually not by chance.
