In this fascinating episode of the Authors on Mission podcast, host Danielle Hutchinson sits down with Mark McClish, former U.S. Marshal and expert in statement analysis who spent 20 years developing revolutionary techniques to detect deception through linguistic analysis rather than body language. Mark reveals the hidden clues in everyday speech that reveal when someone is being truthful or deceptive.
Key Tips You'll Discover:

- Pronoun Analysis: How unexpected pronoun usage (like assault victims saying "we" instead of "I") indicates deception
- Article Usage Secrets: The difference between saying "the car" vs. "a car" and what it reveals about prior knowledge
- The "No Idea" Tell: Why phrases like "I have no idea" often indicate withheld information rather than genuine ignorance

- High-Profile Case Studies: Using real examples to make technical concepts accessible to readers
Mark shares his journey from teaching at the U.S. Marshal training academy for 9 years to developing linguistic analysis techniques that work better than traditional body language methods. He discusses the challenges of transitioning from lecturing (his preference) to writing books, and how he uses compelling case studies to engage readers while teaching complex detection techniques.
Whether you're interested in psychology, law enforcement techniques, or simply want to understand human communication better, Mark's insights into statement analysis offer practical skills for detecting deception in everyday interactions.
