- 0:09I got to find him, right?
- 0:13I need your help.
- 0:21When we find the guy who took him,
- 0:25what do you think we should do?
- 0:28This is what is known as a
- 0:29behavior-provoking question. An innocent
- 0:32person will usually give what is known
- 0:33as a draconian response. They will
- 0:36immediately respond with the harshest
- 0:37sentence possible for the crime they are
- 0:39falsely being accused of committing. A
- 0:41deceptive individual will often give an
- 0:43equivocating response. This means that
- 0:46they will fragmentize and divert from
- 0:48the question to a certain degree as a
- 0:50means to avoid responding to the query
- 0:52in its entirety.
- 0:53They're going to come home safe.
- 0:54Correct. when you find the guy.
- 0:57When we find the guy, they're going to
- 0:58come home.
- 1:02Life in prison would be the That's what
- 1:05I would That's what I would think with
- 1:07two kids that are involved.
- 1:12What if he hurt them?
- 1:18Did they
- 1:20I'm not sure if like that penalty is
- 1:22even used. Is it used in Colorado? I am
- 1:25not even sure what is a death penalty.
- 1:27Okay.
- 1:28I mean like if these kids are not alive
- 1:31like there's no there's nothing you
- 1:33could do to to cope with that to make me
- 1:37cope with that if those kids are not
- 1:40okay.
- 1:43Okay. Can we keep talking about some
- 1:45complicated things? Some things that are
- 1:47going to make you uncomfortable? That's
- 1:48fine. Okay. You've done very good in
- 1:51talking to me about this really hard
- 1:52conversation you guys had. Okay. Very
- 1:55good. That's sometimes hard and I
- 1:58understand why sometimes someone in your
- 2:00position says uh doesn't want to tell me
- 2:03about that cuz please go help me find my
- 2:05kids and you don't need to know about my
- 2:07my marriage argument. Okay. So, I got to
- 2:10say you've done very good at that. Um
- 2:12and I need you to keep doing that. So, I
- 2:14need to ask you about um your marriage
- 2:18and uh infidelity.
- 2:20Okay.
- 2:20Okay. Tell me about it. Yeah, I have
- 2:23never cheated on my wife. Okay.
- 2:25And I fully suspect she has never done
- 2:27that to me.
- 2:28Oh, okay.
- 2:29The interrogator was already aware that
- 2:31Chris was cheating on his wife with a
- 2:33woman by the name of Nicole Kessinger.
- 2:35He had handed over his phone earlier on
- 2:37this interview for what he thought was
- 2:39for the purpose of going through his and
- 2:41his wife's mutual contacts to look for
- 2:43potential suspects. Judging by Chris's
- 2:45bold-faced denial, it's safe to assume
- 2:47he deleted all of his correspondence
- 2:49with Nicole beforehand. Yet, he was most
- 2:52likely unaware that the FBI have
- 2:54programs that can recover every single
- 2:56piece of digital exchange sent from a
- 2:58device, even long after it's deleted.
- 3:00Highly trained investigator over here,
- 3:02right? I see pictures of you from a few
- 3:05years ago.
- 3:06Mhm.
- 3:06And I see you standing before me now.
- 3:09Okay. You've gotten pretty fit.
- 3:11Okay. You can imagine when guys start
- 3:13cheating or want to cheat, that's what
- 3:15happens. Yes. So, tell me about it. I
- 3:17did not cheat on my wife. Okay. What do
- 3:20I do to help you walk out of this room
- 3:23and not look like the person who's
- 3:25responsible?
- 3:28You have to trust me. I had nothing to
- 3:30do with these with this act of like
- 3:34evil, cruelty, whatever has happened
- 3:35here because my love for these two girls
- 3:39and my wife, like I don't want anything
- 3:41to happen to them. I've never wanted
- 3:43anything to happen to them.
- 3:45No matter if me and my wife separate or
- 3:47not or divorce or anything, I never wish
- 3:51harm on anybody on a human being in
- 3:53general.
- 3:54Okay?
- 3:54Like just seeing that picture like I
- 3:58need them I I want them just to run
- 4:00through that front door and just grab me
- 4:02or just barrel just tackle me, knock me
- 4:04to the floor, bust my head. I don't
- 4:05care.
- 4:07The amount of love I have for my family
- 4:10is exponential. And I it's never going
- 4:12to die.
- 4:14They need I want them back.
- 4:16Okay.
- 4:17I have to have them back.
- 4:26When you walk out of this room,
- 4:29there's nothing I can say to a room full
- 4:31of police officers that's going to
- 4:32convince them that you have nothing to
- 4:35do with this. I know.
- 4:36You know what they think?
- 4:38I I know I'll Yeah.
- 4:40Here's a guy who didn't call 911,
- 4:42who woke his wife wife up at a
- 4:45ridiculous hour because he was so guilty
- 4:48about something that he had to get it
- 4:49off his chest and say, "I don't love you
- 4:51anymore. I'm leaving you."
- 4:54That didn't go well.
- 4:58Okay. So, what happened?
- 5:00She told me she wanted me to wake her up
- 5:02before I left. That's why I didn't just
- 5:05wake her up like just to tell her this.
- 5:08Like I woke her up. That's what she
- 5:10wanted to do. And we talked like usually
- 5:13at 4:00 a.m. I wake up. I go down to
- 5:15work out. This day I wanted to talk to
- 5:17her about this.
- 5:34I love these girls. I love these girls
- 5:37so much. And this picture right here,
- 5:41Celeste and Bella, those are my life.
- 5:44I'm helped make those kids.
- 5:47There's nothing in my life that means
- 5:50more to me than these kids.
- 5:55Nothing. Kids, that's that's your life.
- 5:59That's your lifeline.
- 6:01That's everything. Like you make kids,
- 6:03they're they come first before anything.
- 6:05Kids, spouse, family. That's what it's
- 6:08always been.
- 6:16Nothing you've told me tonight makes
- 6:17sense. Nothing you've told me tonight
- 6:20feels like the truth.
- 6:27Can we start over? Sure.
- 6:31Tonight's been pretty intense. I can
- 6:33imagine. How are you feeling?
- 6:37I slept like two hours last night, so
- 6:39I'm like running on empty right now, but
- 6:41I know I can see it. So, why don't I do
- 6:43this? I'm sure you don't mind if we take
- 6:46a break for the night.
- 6:49Um, and I'm sure that you are
- 6:52um feeling some of the pressure from me.
- 6:55Okay. I'm going to commit to you that
- 6:57we're not going to stop working until we
- 6:59find them.
- 6:59Okay.
- 7:00Okay. And I want to commit to you that
- 7:04there is going to come a time when
- 7:07you're going to feel this pressure from
- 7:08other people. I'm not the only one who
- 7:10thinks that there's a possibility you
- 7:12have something to do with this. Like
- 7:14another FBI agent like pressure or like
- 7:16just like
- 7:17everyone. Okay. Everyone Chris.
- 7:18Okay. The interrogator is clearly
- 7:21receptive to Chris's anxiety and
- 7:23endeavors to amplify this emotion before
- 7:25ending the interview. He wants to
- 7:26inflate Chris's apprehension as much as
- 7:29possible for the looming polygraph test
- 7:31that approaches the following day.
- 7:33Tonight when you go home,
- 7:36one of two things going to happen.
- 7:38You're going to pass out cuz you're so
- 7:40tired. Okay? And that's probably not
- 7:42going to be what happens. Your head's
- 7:44going to go racing. Okay? So tonight
- 7:46when you lay down and your head starts
- 7:49racing, there's going to be things that
- 7:50come to your mind. Okay, this always
- 7:52happens. Always. It's very natural.
- 7:54You're going to say, "I wonder why he
- 7:56asked me that." Okay, you're going to
- 7:58say, "Screw him. How dare he accuse me."
- 8:01Okay, you're going to say, "I wonder if
- 8:03they thought of this." Okay? And then
- 8:05you're going to say, "I probably should
- 8:07have told him something or this or
- 8:09that." Okay? Those are the most common
- 8:12things. Um, when those thoughts come to
- 8:14your head, I want you to call me.
- 8:20And those are beautiful kids. Those kids
- 8:22have a good dad and I know it. I just
- 8:24see the picture for him.
- 8:26Yeah,
- 8:27it's a better one, but it's just
- 8:30I'm sorry to
- 8:35those kids have a good day. The
- 8:36following discourse from the officer
- 8:38could be construed as the reframing
- 8:40technique where an interrogator will try
- 8:42and shift the suspect's view of
- 8:44themselves from negative to positive as
- 8:46a means to lightening the iniquity of
- 8:48their crimes and increasing the chances
- 8:50of a confession. However, this is more
- 8:52likely what is known as passive
- 8:54accusation, where the interrogator is
- 8:56almost certain of the suspect's guilt
- 8:58and indirectly accuses and in some
- 9:00manner indignifies the suspect. This is
- 9:03made evident by the high praises the
- 9:05officer gives to Chris for extremely
- 9:07trivial deeds.
- 9:08A lot of deaths don't
- 9:11get second pairs of clothes and cook
- 9:14eggs and give him snacks at night. You
- 9:16know, a lot of men that's woman's work,
- 9:18right?
- 9:19I like to get involved.
- 9:20You're not that kind of guy. Okay. So,
- 9:23can we say that tomorrow at
- 9:2611:00?
- 9:27Okay.
- 9:28We can do a polygraph
- 9:29here.
- 9:29Here. Um I appreciate you coming in
- 9:31tonight.
- 9:31Mhm.
- 9:32All right.
- 9:33talking.
- 9:34This is Tammy. Did you meet Tammy
- 9:36yesterday? No, I was good at all. I
- 9:37always Tammy.
- 9:37Hi, Chris. How are you?
- 9:39Is it on this?
- 9:40Yep. I know it's I'll explain what that
- 9:41is here in a little bit, but you don't
- 9:43have to worry. It's not on or anything
- 9:45right now. It's not going to It's not
- 9:46going to buzz you or anything.
- 9:48Obviously, you're probably nervous about
- 9:49taking today's test. Honestly, I would
- 9:51think something is wrong with you if you
- 9:52weren't nervous about coming in here to
- 9:54take a polygraph. Even if people are
- 9:56like, I don't have anything to hide, it
- 9:57is nerve-wracking. I have taken tons of
- 10:00polygraphs obviously in my training. Um
- 10:03I went to 10 weeks for training. I've
- 10:05been a polygrapher about for about 5
- 10:06years. Um I went to the best school in
- 10:09the country. So I want you to have
- 10:11confidence in the fact that if you had
- 10:12nothing to do with this disappearance
- 10:14like we're going to find that out today.
- 10:15Okay? I have the best training that they
- 10:17offer in the United States. Um I we use
- 10:20the most validated testing um that the
- 10:23way I'm going to ask you the question.
- 10:25So believe me, if you had nothing to do
- 10:27with this, I will be able to show them
- 10:29that today.
- 10:30This is psychological pressure disguised
- 10:32as reassurance. It's not a routine
- 10:34procedure during the pre-EST phase of a
- 10:36polygraph exam. Yet, this technique will
- 10:38be used when the suspect's guilt is
- 10:40almost conclusive. Polygraphs are not a
- 10:42foolproof system, and they can be
- 10:44beaten. But with a heightened state of
- 10:46anxiety, it becomes considerably more
- 10:48challenging and unlikely. On this
- 10:50occasion, the polygrapher distinctly
- 10:52applies this technique for maximal
- 10:53effect. There's actually only two ways
- 10:55you can fail a polygraph. Okay? The
- 10:57first way would be if you fail to follow
- 10:58my instructions. I'm going to give you a
- 11:00lot of instructions today about how to
- 11:02sit still, how to answer questions,
- 11:03things like that. So, if you fail to
- 11:05follow those instructions, you will not
- 11:06pass today's test. Okay? The second way
- 11:08would be if you choose to lie to me
- 11:10today. You know, if you did have
- 11:11something to do with their
- 11:13disappearance, um it would be really
- 11:15stupid for you to come in and take a
- 11:16polygraph today,
- 11:18right? Like it it would be really dumb.
- 11:20like you should not be here right now
- 11:22sitting in this chair if you had
- 11:23anything to do with Chenan and the
- 11:25little girl's disappearance. Okay.
- 11:32But yeah, we just everything flourished
- 11:34from there. Like in 2011, I I proposed
- 11:36to her over in Ocean Beach.
- 11:40It was she was just sitting there
- 11:42crying. It was a little eviction notice
- 11:43and she had she recorded it. It was
- 11:46really it was an amazing day just to see
- 11:48that. And then she Celeste, she was she
- 11:52was I was there like she had a midwife
- 11:54for this one. So like they actually had
- 11:56me like you can stand here and like you
- 11:58know catch her and like but Celeste came
- 12:01out like so fast that like I barely had
- 12:04a chance to go like this and they moved
- 12:06me out of the way. She just like came
- 12:07out.
- 12:07The polygrapher will also obtain the
- 12:10examinees version of the facts regarding
- 12:12the specific issues under investigation.
- 12:14Like I was just hoping that I would get
- 12:15that knocked on the door or a phone call
- 12:18or a text. I mean her phone I mean they
- 12:20have her phone. Like hopefully maybe
- 12:22it's a number. I don't know. Hopefully
- 12:24it's like you know like a burn her phone
- 12:27or some some kind of some kind of like
- 12:30phone she bought and she could just text
- 12:31me and call me like hey I'm okay
- 12:33something or just get a knock on the
- 12:35door and then the kids just run in. I
- 12:37miss like the kids like sitting at the
- 12:39dinner table and like having to tell
- 12:42them to eat their dinner and like I miss
- 12:44them throwing their chicken nuggets at
- 12:46me. Like I was I just want to find them.
- 12:50I want them to come home safe. Like
- 12:51wherever they are I hope they are safe
- 12:54and I really I really hope they can just
- 12:56come home. It makes me feel like, all
- 12:59right, maybe somebody has her that's not
- 13:02that's not keeping her safe
- 13:05or something terrible has happened. And
- 13:08that is that's the nightmare.
- 13:11And what would that terrible thing be?
- 13:14Somebody hurt them.
- 13:15Chris recounts a brief summary of the
- 13:17events and states multiple vague
- 13:19possibilities for his family's
- 13:21disappearance. The polygrapher then
- 13:23starts to elect specific timelines for
- 13:25Chris to give his account on. Um, you
- 13:29said the next thing you know is her
- 13:30getting into bed with you. Is that
- 13:31right?
- 13:32I could I felt her get in bed. We didn't
- 13:33say anything cuz I just kind of felt it.
- 13:36Okay. Do you know if she was on her
- 13:38phone or like how any of that works?
- 13:40I don't I don't think she was on her
- 13:42phone.
- 13:43Was she mad at all?
- 13:45I mean, being crying crying like she was
- 13:48crying like I was. I mean Yeah. I mean,
- 13:50she was upset, but I mean it was it it
- 13:53comes with that kind of conversation. In
- 13:55the next moments, you will see another
- 13:57subdriuge of psychological pressure.
- 13:59This time disguised as routine
- 14:01questioning procedure.
- 14:02I know it's totally awful to think
- 14:05about, but what are ways, because I need
- 14:07to make sure that you know what I'm
- 14:09talking about. What are ways that you
- 14:11can make someone disappear?
- 14:16I mean, like if you talk about like what
- 14:18I've seen like on the movies or like how
- 14:21like how people if you read about other
- 14:23people I mean you hire somebody
- 14:27like a hitman.
- 14:28Yeah. I mean that's I mean
- 14:29I'm just being honest.
- 14:30Nope. That's what I want. That's what I
- 14:31want cuz I want you to go through all of
- 14:33these scenarios in your head because I
- 14:35want you to know for sure what I'm
- 14:37talking about when I say that you know
- 14:38asking you if you physically caused her
- 14:40disappearance.
- 14:41Okay? like like you would hire somebody
- 14:43or you have a
- 14:45somebody you know that
- 14:48that would do it. I mean it's like I
- 14:50don't I mean that's hard question.
- 14:52I didn't know this.
- 14:53That's a hard question to answer,
- 14:55right?
- 14:55Because I didn't it had nothing to do
- 14:58with this disappearance, but like I
- 15:00don't even want to think about like
- 15:02if I if if you're asking like how I
- 15:05would do it like I
- 15:06no anyone like how would how would
- 15:08anyone cause someone else's
- 15:09disappearance? I mean, you would
- 15:14say that
- 15:14you could cause someone's disappearance
- 15:16by murdering them. Would you agree with
- 15:18that?
- 15:18Yes.
- 15:18So, what different physical ways could
- 15:20you cause someone's disappearance
- 15:22through murder?
- 15:24You could stab someone.
- 15:25Stab someone, shoot someone,
- 15:28hit him with a blunt object.
- 15:31Um,
- 15:34what else is there? I mean,
- 15:37use a weapon of like gun or knife. I
- 15:39mean,
- 15:40okay,
- 15:41you could
- 15:49you could smother someone.
- 15:50Smother someone,
- 15:53you could strangle someone,
- 15:55hang some. I mean, yeah, you can all
- 15:56that kind of things. I mean, it's hard
- 15:59to even think about that kind of stuff
- 16:00right now.
- 16:01So, you could strangle someone, you
- 16:02could drown someone.
- 16:04Yeah.
- 16:05You could shock someone to death. Um,
- 16:07you could burn someone alive.
- 16:11Um, what other ways
- 16:14can you think of
- 16:18as far as like
- 16:22lure him into a trap? I guess.
- 16:25What do you mean? What?
- 16:26Like, you know, like have somebody
- 16:27waiting like around the corner and like
- 16:31Sure.
- 16:34[Music]
- 16:37They're in a coma.
- 16:38Sure.
- 16:40Um,
- 16:43so if I ask you that question on the
- 16:44test, Chris, are you going to have any
- 16:46issue with that about you physically
- 16:48causing
- 16:49going through every single one of those?
- 16:51Yeah, like that would be a way you could
- 16:52cause someone's disappearance.
- 16:53Okay. No, I I can definitely like I can
- 16:56pass. I mean,
- 16:56you could murder them, you could kidnap
- 16:58them, you could take them to another
- 16:59country, you could, you know, bury them
- 17:01in your backyard, you could you could do
- 17:02a million things. Yeah.
- 17:04As far as um trying to conceal them.
- 17:07Yeah.
- 17:07Right.
- 17:08So that no one can find them.
- 17:09Yes.
- 17:09Cuz at this point she's gone.
- 17:12So when I ask you the question on the
- 17:13test, I'm not asking you about guilt.
- 17:15I'm not asking you about did you make
- 17:17her feel so horrible that she ended up
- 17:18leaving. I'm saying that you were the
- 17:21one that physically caused her to
- 17:23disappear
- 17:24either by murder, kidnapping, you know,
- 17:26all of those other things that we went
- 17:28through. Okay.
- 17:28You want me to list You want me to list
- 17:30all those? Like why?
- 17:31No, no, no. You're just going to say no
- 17:32to that question. Okay. When I ask you
- 17:34if you physically caused Shenan's
- 17:36disappearance, your answer should be
- 17:38what?
- 17:38No.
- 17:39Right. So, do you have any issues with
- 17:40that at all? And have any question about
- 17:42what I would mean when I was
- 17:44No, that's total like I just like going
- 17:46through all those that
- 17:48that's a lot to really think about,
- 17:50right?
- 17:51Trying to figure out like Yeah, that was
- 17:57I'm going to have you take a bathroom
- 17:59break. We've been in here quite a while.
- 18:01So,
- 18:03you're going to be taking what's called
- 18:04a directed lie polygraph. So, what that
- 18:06means is they're going to be test
- 18:08questions on the test where I want you
- 18:09to lie. I know it seems kind of weird,
- 18:11but you're going to know which questions
- 18:12these are, and they're going to be easy
- 18:13to answer. They're all going to start
- 18:15with before 2018.
- 18:16The directed lie test has three types of
- 18:19questions. Known truth questions. These
- 18:21are easy questions to answer, such as,
- 18:24"Are you sitting down?" or "Are you
- 18:26wearing shoes?" They serve two purposes.
- 18:28The first purpose is to provide a
- 18:30baseline reading for when the subject is
- 18:32telling the truth and should elicit very
- 18:34little bodily responses. The second
- 18:36purpose is to disconnect the examinees
- 18:38thought patterns between each question
- 18:40as a means for resetting their
- 18:41celebration for a more accurate reading.
- 18:44Control questions. These are what the
- 18:46polygrapher just explained to Chris.
- 18:48Whenever she says before 2018 at the
- 18:51start of a question, Chris will know he
- 18:53is purposely supposed to lie. Each of
- 18:55these questions are deliberately
- 18:56constructed that all answers will be
- 18:58responded with no relevant questions.
- 19:01These relate specifically to the crime
- 19:03being investigated and the examinee will
- 19:05know that they are supposed to respond
- 19:07truthfully. A guilty subject will show a
- 19:09much stronger reaction to the relevant
- 19:11questions than to the control questions
- 19:13even though they will be lying on both
- 19:15of them. This is due to the immediate
- 19:16threat posed by the relevant questions.
- 19:19So, I'm going to say before 2018, did
- 19:21you ever lose your temper with someone
- 19:22you cared about? And you're going to say
- 19:24no
- 19:25cuz you're telling a
- 19:26lie.
- 19:27Awesome.
- 19:33The test is about to begin. Please
- 19:34remain still. Did you write the number
- 19:36one?
- 19:37No.
- 19:38Did you write the number three?
- 19:40No.
- 19:40Did you write the number five?
- 19:42No.
- 19:43This portion of the test is complete.
- 19:45Please remain still while I take the
- 19:46instrument out of operation.
- 19:50Okay, you can relax.
- 19:52How'd you feel?
- 19:55This is the last time the polygrapher
- 19:57will have any correspondence with Chris
- 19:59before the real test begins. She gives
- 20:01him an initial compliment in a
- 20:02reassuring tone.
- 20:03You did great.
- 20:05You remembered to lie and everything.
- 20:07That was awesome.
- 20:08That was
- 20:10This momentary boost in his confidence
- 20:12is then abruptly ripped away as he
- 20:14receives the following information.
- 20:16So, you obviously are a really bad liar.
- 20:19Have Have people told you that before?
- 20:20Like this? I mean, you tell a lie. Like,
- 20:22they can tell like on your face that
- 20:24because the second you lie to the number
- 20:26three, like I don't know if you heard me
- 20:27clicking, but like turn down the
- 20:29sensitivity because you're starting to
- 20:30go off the page. So, that is what I need
- 20:32to see as a polygrapher because that
- 20:35tells me that you know it's wrong to
- 20:36tell a lie. Um, and you're actually
- 20:38having a significant reaction when you
- 20:40lie. So, that is awesome. So, thank you
- 20:42for being a horrible liar. No, that's a
- 20:44good thing. That's a good thing. We
- 20:46don't want to be good liars. So, thank
- 20:48you for being a horrible liar. Um, and
- 20:50that just shows me that, you know,
- 20:51obviously on the test when we're asking,
- 20:53you know, significant stuff about your
- 20:54wife, um, if you're lying to that, it's
- 20:56going to be even 10 times more
- 20:58amplified. So, I appreciate that.
- 21:01I appreciate that very much. More than
- 21:03you know. So, that was awesome. And the
- 21:06coolest thing about this is right now
- 21:08there's only one person in this room
- 21:10that knows what the truth is. And in
- 21:12about five minutes there's going to be
- 21:13two of us. So, that's the coolest part.
- 21:15Okay? And I can go share that with them
- 21:17out there. Okay. Okay.
- 21:20All right, you ready? Let's
- 21:21do it.

- 23:35were not honest during the testing and I
- 23:36think you already know that um you did
- 23:39not pass the polygraph test, right?
- 23:41Okay. So, now we need to talk about what

- 23:57a minute. Take a deep breath.
- 24:00I I want you to take a deep breath right
- 24:01now.
