Old school tactic. A criminal who thinks he is smarter talks the the LE officer talks more. If he thinks the officer is smarter he talks less. Playing dumb works.
I had three suspects while in the Sheriffs Dept. that were caught stealing from a subdivision where they were building homes he was struck with a 2x4 by a third suspect and a motorized vehicle chase proceeded as they attempted to make their escape. We caught them in another County. My suspect ran to the right the other two to the left. We caught them all. I was K9 and I had to place the suspect in another car. For obvious reasons LOL, my partner in the back seat.. As I closed the door I said thank you to my confused perp. I noticed his friends were watching him as the stood by two different patrol cars. I walked up and said congratulations and pointed to the guy on the right and said you have the driver, where immediately both suspects screamed BS and said I had the driver. The two Deputies secured their suspects in their patrol car and came to me. They said this guy tried to place blame on his friend. I said no he said nothing, But by doing this I saved our ears a hour of BS on who the driver was, And since our Deputy has them on the scene and we have them at the incident of arrest after pursuit. We do not need then to say anything more. They busted out laughing. But our citizens had three perps off the street. This tactic works.
When you talk to one or more watch their body language and facial expressions. it will key you in when you are fed a load of BS. Also you can gauge who is weakest to talk who is medium. Save the tough guy for last, because one and two will break three.
His Rumble
He is pretty smart. When interviewing pedos, he makes them think he is unintelligent by scratching his armpits and butt, lol.
