Shadowing Practice: This Is A Big Problem - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
Well hey there idiots, welcome back to Observe.
2
In today's video I'm going to be utilizing my licensing and certifications as a scan-specific
3
behavioral analyst to be able to break down the non-verbal communication
4
of a certain Don Light who was charged with intimidating jurors regarding the Clancy case.
5
More on that in just a second, let's go ahead and roll this intro.
6
The Clancy trial now has been going on for over six
7
weeks with the current deliberations between the jurors being problematic to say the least.
8
There have been multiple times now where they have not been able to agree on a verdict
9
and so there is now the looming threat of a hung jury and possibly even a mistrial.
10
complications beyond that of finding people for a new jury set
11
that don't already know everything about this case
12
or feel like they know everything about this case and already have formed an opinion.
13
It's a mess to be sure.
14
In today's video we're going to be breaking down the body language of somebody who has overstepped the bounds
15
so to speak of where the observers people
16
that are just looking at the case from a distance viewers
17
hobbyists what have you have now stepped into the realm of legalities
18
and difficulties around that
19
so we're going be looking at her nonverbal communication to decipher is this something
20
that is a regrettable decision for her or is this something
21
that she stands by and is it highlighting a bigger ordeal
22
throughout this i will be utilizing my system here
23
which is a logitech editing hub coupled with a huyan artist's tablet i use
24
that for slow motion replays live annotations what have you like
25
that so hopefully it'll make it a little bit more consumable to you along with
26
that i'll be relying on my certifications and licensing in the SCANS system and the FACS systems.
27
For those of you that do not know what those are, SCANS is the concept of six-channel analysis system.
28
That's what it stands for.
29
It's a behavioral analysis approach and methodology that holds to the fact that human communication flows through six channels,
30
both nonverbal and verbal, and it's only when you take all of those into consideration that you could have the utmost accuracy.
31
FACS is the facial action coding system which was pioneered by Dr. Paul Ekman.
32
He went through and mapped all 43 of the muscles across the human face
33
and related them to the emotions that they are tied to.
34
And this goes through degrees of movement and which ones mean which and whatnot.
35
There's a lot of specificity in that.
36
So I'll be utilizing those systems predominantly while going through this.
37
Within those systems, a portion of it is a baseline building
38
which is where you gather a person's behavior before anything weighty is being directed towards them.
39
It's so you can see what what their behavior patterns are,
40
while they're more relaxed and less stressed so that you can compare those patterns later on to spikes from that baseline, both positive and negative.
41
A positive spike is a sudden burst of activity and a negative spike is a sudden freezing of activity.
42
Utilizing this entire system will help add more accuracy to the read itself, to the analysis itself.
43
With this specific video, the baseline building options are limited to say the least.
44
So I'll be utilizing the universalities of body language, which there are few, and then I will be utilizing the universality of facial expressions, which there are more of.
45
And we'll be combining those, hopefully also, with some of the idiosyncrasies that she does present here to add as accurate of a nonverbal representation.
46
What her psychology is actually doing in the background as opposed to what she might be wanting to portray to everybody around.
47
And then we'll wrap up at the very, very end.
48
I think that that honestly is, that's more than enough talking from me.
49
Let's go ahead and start into the analysis portion of things.
50
Good morning.
51
Good morning, Madam Clerk.
52
Are you ready on the Dawn Light arraignment matter?
53
Yes, Madam Clerk, thank you.
54
Thank you.
55
On the Commonwealth versus Dawn Light, for Middle Docket 2659 CR 1187, please step up to the microphone.
56
One complaint charging you, state police operations in Plymouth, September 1st of 2026.
57
You are charged with aggravated intimidation of a juror,
58
witness, police, a court official, arraigned for the record.
59
Okay, ma'am, not guilty.
60
Please, it'll be answered on your behalf.
61
And you should be advised that if you're charged with another offense while this case is pending, your bail could be revoked and you could be held in jail without bail for up to 90 days.
62
So you have a right to be represented by an attorney.
63
My understanding is that you don't qualify for court-appointed counsel, so you'll ultimately have to be an attorney.
64
Commonwealth, does any request to be on the bail warning?
65
Thank you.
66
Good morning, Aaron.
67
Nicole Piacentini on behalf of the Commonwealth.
68
The Commonwealth is requesting $50,000 cash bail, as well as a number of conditions, including stay away from the courthouse,
69
court grounds, stay away from all potential jurors, as well as any witnesses related to the Lindsay Clancy case,
70
as well as refrain from disseminating any videos, photos that the defendant may have on an iCloud related to this incident.
71
I'm going to go ahead and pause here.
72
Obviously, this is just going to continually kind of stream on forward.
73
So throughout this, this is the closest area region portion
74
that we can kind of gain a baseline understanding of how light here behaves.
75
This is circumstantial.
76
We don't get to really see her not being pressured by something.
77
So this is still, she's already under some pressure.
78
She's standing up in front of the court and whatnot.
79
So we're working with some muddy waters to begin with.
80
However, what we're able to see is kind of how she responds to various stimuli.
81
In this case, it's obviously going to be verbal stimuli.
82
They're talking to her and she's going to react to that.
83
She's not going to say a lot here.
84
In fact, I don't think she says anything throughout the entirety of this hearing.
85
It's not too long of a hearing.
86
We're going to watch the entirety of it and talk about the body language through it.
87
Something that I've noticed is that she seems to be more communicative with her eyes.
88
There will be eyebrow flashes and squints and blinks and acknowledgements through her eyes.
89
However, there's another portion here, which bear with me as I'm going through this
90
because I'm still learning this system and there's some quirks that I need to work out with this,
91
but I'm gonna try to scroll back down through here and show you kind of where she has a response,
92
a fairly negative response to one of the accusations being directed towards her.
93
So if we look down here at the screen here, she's about to hear it and you could see it come across her face there.
94
And so you see her eyebrows drawing together.
95
This is a foreign activation.
96
When you see the eyebrows being drawn together and kind of lowered there, that's activation in through here, brow lowers.
97
And those are common throughout a number of different emotional states.
98
So the key is to look at the rest of the face as well to gain that context.
99
The brow lowering itself can be seen in anger.
100
It can be seen in confusion.
101
It can be seen in frustration, outrage.
102
There's a slew of different emotional states that can go into that.
103
And so what's important to note is the lower half of it.
104
One, she has a prolonged eye blink.
105
That prolonged eye blink, anything that lasts longer than an average blink, which is less than a quarter of a second, would be considered an eye blocking gesture.
106
What that eye blocking gesture, again, means relies heavily on the context as to what's going on.
107
So with the system that I use, there's two different methods that we're kind of working with within the scan system itself.
108
One is called the 327 method.
109
That's where it has to be three pins across two different channels three two within seven seconds of a stimulus.
110
That could be verbal at any form of external or intrinsic stimulus within seven seconds of that.
111
And if you see that cluster three pins across two channels within seven seconds, that's enough of a red flag to break the threshold.
112
Before that, it just kind of counts as like, okay, there were some interesting behavioral quirks, but it's not enough to be able to be like, hey, we need to focus back in here and talk to this person.
113
They're possibly manipulating what's being said here or presented here on some level.
114
I think what she's communicating with her nonverbal communication here, considering the rest of the face, is she wants to display that she finds that area outrageous.
115
Along with that, we're seeing that she puts on her glasses.
116
She obviously needs them to see, and then she looks and she takes them off pretty quickly here.
117
And so with that movement, I think that kind of can indicate to us that she's been encouraged to not have her glasses on.
118
And the reason that that's important to make note of is
119
because then sometimes you might be able to rely on the fact that we know she needs glasses, that she's had to take them off, she's not wearing contacts, that might affect some of her eye behaviors,
120
which she will have some eye behaviors in this.
121
And so we'll have to keep in mind, there's the possibility that some of what we're seeing could be explained away by her not having her glasses on.
122
We'll have to look at the contexts of what's going on with that.
123
Back around to the other method that I was talking about that I'm kind of functioning through here.
124
It's also the ABCs, which is the account, the baseline and the context.
125
Those three are extremely important to utilize in an analysis like this for accuracy.
126
So within this account, she's obviously there to answer for this charge that's being presented with her intimidating a juror.
127
And then the baseline, we've kind of been able to see she's not going to speak a lot.
128
We kind of saw how her face rests and lies and how she responds to questions.
129
And then the context itself is what's going on the environment, external influences, people, thoughts, things like that.
130
That's the context.
131
So if we're, if we see something and it can't be explained away by either the account, the baseline or the context.
132
Coupling that with the 327, you've got a major red flag.
133
There is the distinct heavy, heavy possibility.
134
You can't ever be 100%, but 90 plus percent possibility that credibility should be questioned there, whether or not she's actually being authentic or telling the truth.
135
Let's continue on forward.
136
Cash bail, as well as a number of conditions, including stay away from the courthouse, court grounds, stay away from all potential jurors,
137
as well as any witnesses related to the lindsey clancy case
138
um as well as refrain from disseminating any um videos photos
139
that um the defendant may have on an icloud um related
140
to this incident just one moment uh attorney white did you
141
have a chance to speak with um uh miss late yes
142
regarding the conditions okay all right um sorry one more time
143
um of course just with the conditions again of course thank you um to stay away from the courthouse
144
and the court grounds to stay away from all potential jurors and witnesses involved in the Lindsay Clancy case,
145
as well as to refrain from disseminating or producing any photos
146
that may be on her iCloud account in relation to this incident.
147
I'm going to go ahead and pause here and make note of a couple of things that have stayed consistent here.
148
Again, she tends to interact more heavily with the upper half of her face that that's the more mobile portion of things.
149
When there's something that's brought up unexpected, you could see her raise her eyebrows, widen her eyes, like that area of her face is where she's communicating most.
150
And so it might also be one of the areas that could be most revealing.
151
However, something that you have to be careful with in
152
that is that just
153
because somebody communicates most with a certain region of their face does not mean that they're not aware of that.
154
She could, in fact, be aware that she does communicate most through her eyes
155
and so she's more likely to be able to control what's going on through there.
156
So her eyes might not, in fact, be the windows to her soul in this specific case.
157
Something else that she is doing regularly, though, I do find interesting and I kind of can see some of the psychological back and forth that's happening here.
158
You see her eyes doing regular movements.
159
She's thinking a lot.
160
Whenever you see somebody's eyes moving around a lot and some frequent blinks and things like that, that usually indicates a level of increased psychological processing.
161
So she's, her brain's running pretty fast at this point, but what she's trying to portray with the rest of her nonverbal communication is this confident, relaxed state.
162
And I think she's trying to show that she doesn't have anything that she's worried about here.
163
And the reason that I'm leaning towards
164
that being her mindset of what she's trying to portray here is
165
because of a specific cluster of body language
166
that she's trying to portray here that happens
167
when people are trying to show that they're not feeling overtly threatened by something
168
or they're feeling confident in an area and perhaps at least quizzical, sometimes bored, something along those lines, and it'll come out through this.
169
And it's this look of where you expose your neck and kind of tilt your head, and that is usually belaying of the mindset of somebody being more confident,
170
feeling like they're less at risk at the time.
171
When you see somebody becoming defensive, their body language tends to close up, tighten up, and do some self-preservation motions in there.
172
So your abdominal area is full of very important things.
173
So sometimes you'll see hugs or braces and whatnot around on that area.
174
But then also in your neck here, it's a very vital, rich area as well.
175
You've got all sorts of nerves and your spinal cord and veins, and it's very important, right?
176
And so if a person's feeling defensive, it's their body's natural response to protect that area.
177
So you'll see turtling.
178
If you then kind of take that pattern and you flip it, you can see the other side of things where they're feeling confident and so they'll expose certain areas of them.
179
This is not necessarily a universal.
180
It is something that I have seen repeatedly as a pattern, as well as other nonverbal analysts have seen this pattern come up regularly, but there has not been enough scientific,
181
we need to get down to some control groups, and do a test group, and then do some extraneous testing outside of that.
182
That hasn't been able to be fully done as of yet.
183
It's merely pattern detection at this point.
184
So we're seeing that in there.
185
It is pushing me towards believing that she's trying to convey confidence almost not full cockiness, but I'm not at risk here, and I want to show that I'm relaxed and I'm not at risk,
186
so neck's coming out there, and that head tilt is coming in there, which is interesting, because like I said, her eyes are showing that her mind's racing, her body is showing that she's trying to,
187
you know, not portray herself as such, and in this case, I would be more likely to follow what the eyes are saying.
188
I don't think that she's managing all of it well, which is I think her eyes are revealing the truth of things, a little bit of stress, a little bit of panic, a lot of psychological processing,
189
and her body is something that she's trying to portray as the front.
190
I hope that makes sense.
191
Let's continue on forward.
192
Yes.
193
As well as the $50,000 cash bail.
194
Okay, I'll hear you on your request.
195
Thank you, Your Honor.
196
Your Honor, the Commonwealth is requesting a mail as it relates to this incident.
197
On September 1st, yesterday of 2026,
198
state police who were involved in the surveillance as well as the security during the Lindsay Clancy case.
199
Something that I want to point out, it's not implicative of anything right now, but non-verbally speaking, what Light's doing is a very common unlistening cluster.
200
It's the tilting of the head, oftentimes with the gaze not being directed in a specific area, but more so in a generalized space,
201
so to speak, and it allows them to audio process a little bit more.
202
We're seeing that very clearly here down on the screen.
203
You can see she's got her head lightly tilted here.
204
This area here is more exposed.
205
And so she's probably listening through this ear here.
206
And that, again, that will come up regularly.
207
Some people try to relate that to some form of deceit
208
or they're trying to plan out a lie or something like that.
209
That's not the case.
210
It is very commonly seen in people who are trying to process audio information to break gaze
211
and tilt head in a way that allows them to take in sound even more subconsciously.
212
Called by court officers for an individual who may have been filming potential jurors in the parking lot.
213
Officers responded to the employee parking lot where there was a restricted area,
214
and they found a blue Toyota parked in the back of the parking lot, backed in, facing the restricted area that was blocked off.
215
They did make contact with the person inside that vehicle.
216
She was identified as the defendant, dawn light before you.
217
When officers spoke with her, they asked her if she was filming.
218
It's interesting as this timeline of events that's being presented here, as it's being presented, I'm obviously watching light throughout this.
219
And there's an area through this as she's saying, backed into an area.
220
And you can look down here at the screen.
221
She does a little teeny tiny nod in there of like, yep, that's correct.
222
And then as it's going through and it's getting to the made contact area, you see this expression here.
223
The narrowing of the eyes and the light activation, you can see it down here, right?
224
If you watch her bottom lip there, you can see mild activation upwards and that chin boss activation usually is pushing into what's called a mouth shrug.
225
And a mouth shrug is the facial equivalent, more or less, to a shoulder shrug.
226
Now with the narrowing of the eyes and that mouth shrug in there, to me, that's letting me know that light does not fully agree with that.
227
The narrowing of the eyes, that's suspicion, that's scorn, that's frustration.
228
So seeing that coupled with the, I think that she finds that specific timeline or narrative questionable from her perspective.
229
So I would be curious to know what causes this little cluster down here that we're seeing where she's listening, she has that suspicion point, does a blink, looks down,
230
and then it continues on.
231
She wipes from there.
232
It's just more information to be able to make note of as we're going through.
233
When officers spoke with her, they asked her if she was filming or taking pictures of anyone in the parking lot.
234
She was adamant that she was not.
235
She stated that she was waiting to see if Lindsay Clancy would come out of the building.
236
When state police asked her if they could look through her phone.
237
Interesting again here before the guard comes in here,
238
I'll rewind it now where she's talking about the officers kind of interacting with her where the attorney is talking about that.
239
You could see on Light's face, it's developed further.
240
It's no longer a mouth shrug of uncertainty and some suspicion in there of like, I don't think that that's quite right.
241
It's developed further beyond that.
242
Now we're seeing, we're seeing heavy, heavy activation here in the corners of her nose, which is indicative commonly of disgust.
243
And then we're seeing the same cluster up here at the top with her eyebrows being drawn together and her eyes narrowing.
244
That disgust is an amplification.
245
No longer is it just the mouth shrug of perhaps, I don't know about that.
246
It's now, not only do I not know about that, I also have a level of contention against that.
247
That I would not agree with.
248
That's kind of what she's communicating with her nonverbal communication there.
249
Then we have this guard come in here, down here on the screen, and it's difficult to see what he's saying, but her response to that,
250
she obviously leans in, she's listening, she raises her eyebrows.
251
Again, that eyebrow flash, that eyebrow raise is a very common social interaction when a person's like wanting to listen.
252
They'll be like, what was that kind of thing?
253
You'll see that come up.
254
But also when they're trying to make a point of like, you need to do this.
255
Eyebrows will come up.
256
The eyebrow flash like that is a very social nonverbal display from the face.
257
So she does that when he comes over and then the only thing that she seems to do says, I think she says down here,
258
a gotcha of a course or something along those lines.
259
But the only thing that's really changed after her smile, she tunes back in and she has her hand out of her pocket.
260
That's the biggest difference that I'm seeing there.
261
So I wonder what's going on with that interaction that caused that to happen there.
262
And that couples with this take your glasses off aspect
263
that we saw earlier on where she just put them on
264
and immediately took them off after seeing somebody off to the side.
265
So I'm wondering how heavily coached she is feeling at this moment to behave in a specific way
266
while interacting in this situation due to all of these corrections.
267
The reason that that's important for me to keep in mind is
268
that that adds an extra layer of cognitive processing over what her nonverbal communication might actually present
269
because she's actively seemingly trying to meter it as inspired by external forces.
270
That adds some complications to it, but with that, when a person is actively trying to meter all of their nonverbal communication, unless they're a very versed liar
271
or perhaps an actor who has been able to get into a certain character or something along those lines,
272
it's very difficult for a person to manage all of their nonverbal communication all at the same time without letting something slip.
273
Again, if it can be explained away by the account, the baseline, or the context, then you can't hold too much weight to it.
274
There has to be more.
275
It's extremely, extremely difficult, if not impossible at this point in our understanding of nonverbal communication to have a black
276
and white 100% or 0% kind of answer.
277
Just wanted to add all of that for clarity.
278
We're going to continue on through this.
279
Through her phone, at her photographs, she did consent.
280
She gave them the phone in which they began to look through her photos.
281
At that time, they did not see any videos or photographs of any individuals in the parking lot.
282
Interesting for this.
283
Talking about the photos, we'll rewind here just a second.
284
She's saying officers asked for the phone, gave phone, all of that.
285
And you could see again, nonverbal nod in there.
286
She's agreeing.
287
She's like, yep, that is what the narrative was.
288
And then going through and the officers didn't see any photos initially.
289
But then it's after that, that we see a spike from her baseline.
290
She, you know, she's been maintaining fairly steady eye contact and less interrupted by an external influence.
291
And now we're seeing, we've gotten to this point of the photos, didn't see anything initially.
292
And if you watch here, she goes from holding fairly stationary to a full tilt, reposturing, her legs move, her body moves,
293
and she looks into a different direction and that little pop, there are multiple channels that are in there and it happens right after a specific stimulus.
294
It's enough of like, okay, I see something.
295
I should pay attention here.
296
That lets me know that this photos aspect
297
and what was initially apparent is causing her some discomfort due to all of the lighting up of her nonverbal communication.
298
Whenever you see that pop out like that.
299
Something extra psychological has happened with that.
300
And oftentimes in cases like this, it will be something more implicative in this scenario.
301
If it wasn't, there wouldn't be a need for a psychological response that heavily.
302
Now, as to what that implication actually is, is where the details are for this.
303
It's around the jurors and all of that.
304
But you can't say that just from the body language.
305
You could just be like, okay, I see that she's anxious about this.
306
We need to figure out why.
307
But she is without a doubt.
308
This has affected her psychologically, as you can see through that no movement to sudden at all movements everywhere, rocking, moving, looking, everything like that.
309
It all of it pops up, lights up right there.
310
So that's just something that I wanted to also call light to.
311
These photos and the concept of it causes her stress.
312
She stated she did not know how to do that.
313
She let troopers get the phone and go through her deleted photos.
314
in the deleted folders file, they did locate a video of a number of individuals coming out of the courthouse building from the vantage point
315
that she was located in.
316
Interesting.
317
So now we're talking about the deleted photos.
318
She does a pretty substantial look down.
319
Maybe that is a chin tucking behavior, which that would stray into that defensiveness that I mentioned earlier.
320
Vulnerable tuck when you're feeling defensive, stressed, or threatened on some level.
321
So maybe that's what's going on.
322
She could also just be looking down.
323
Now, what kind of pushes me away from her just looking down at
324
that instance is then she also has a substantial facial manipulator.
325
And the manipulator that I'm referring to in this is not like a person who manipulates a person.
326
A manipulator is when one portion of a human body manipulates either another portion of the body.
327
It can be clothing as well, jewelry.
328
It's a manipulation, object to object manipulation. So manipulator.
329
And she has it down here, as you can see.
330
And when it comes up, she has the one and only pretty substantial rubbing of her eye.
331
Now, that being said, she also has a blink before that.
332
You could see right below, she has a couple blinks in there, blink, blink, blink.
333
And then she reaches up and rubs her eye and then that's kind of the end of it.
334
Maybe it was a mechanical need.
335
Her eye itched a little bit and she just needed to rub her eye or something along those lines.
336
She doesn't do it anywhere else.
337
So it is still a pop.
338
It could possibly be explained by environment.
339
It wouldn't necessarily hang everything on that, but it was across a couple of different channels
340
that we're seeing these movements
341
so it is still a pin a point of interest a red flag you want to pay attention to it
342
if it's in a situation that enables it
343
or is requiring of it this would be one of those areas to circle back around those are all aspects
344
that we're seeing so far let's continue on through from the vantage point
345
that she was located in state police then spoke with court officers who were then able to confirm
346
that those individuals in those videos were the jurors in regards to the Lindsay Clancy trial.
347
At that point, she was taken.
348
Gives us more context right there.
349
Those were the jurors from the Lindsay Clancy trial.
350
Now, as she's saying that, obviously, we're seeing a huge macro shake no, which the no shakes, the nods, the head movements are culturally based.
351
She's from the U.S and in the U.S., the verticals are yeses and the horizontals are noes.
352
So we're seeing that no in there makes sense for everybody in this specific culture
353
that she's in and some other ones
354
that it's not for all of the globe that's where baseline
355
culture context all of that's very important to be able to keep mind of hers is a no
356
and then on top of that as she's saying
357
that you can see if you watch her mouth ever
358
so slight activation of the corner of her mouth there there's
359
the possibility of it activating on both sides it's difficult to say
360
because we're kind of doing a side profile here but seeing
361
that come in there that would be contempt which is a feeling of moral or intellectual superiority.
362
And then on top of that, you see the chin raise a little bit more and the head cock a little bit more, which gives us
363
that clarity from earlier where I was saying this could be
364
her being like attempting to put on a front of confidence and I'm not feeling attacked by this.
365
And so I'm doing these sorts of displays, seeing it in an area like this too, coupled with that other bit of nonverbal clustering that gives us that understanding.
366
That is what was happening earlier on.
367
That's how she represents that she doesn't agree with and she feels unaffronted by something.
368
She does not feel threatened by it.
369
Comes out that way.
370
She disagreed with that mindset of these were photos of the jurors.
371
And that makes sense with the account that she'll have here in a second.
372
Into custody.
373
And those are essentially the facts.
374
Judge, the Commonwealth is asking for $50,000 cash bail based on the facts of this case. $50,000 is a,
375
you know, that's a chunk of change there
376
and as that's being brought up here you can see just ever
377
so slight activation here underneath the eyes I'll show you
378
and that's called the eye tensing you can see it there just
379
so so slight again that that's an indicator of she does not agree with
380
that there's some scorn or suspicion there's confrontation regarding
381
that specific side of things which makes sense it's fifty thousand dollars that's a lot
382
so it would make sense to see her have
383
that sort of emotional response to it it's definitely being communicated again through her eyes.
384
So with that, perhaps there's the possibility that she is just
385
that communicative with her eyes and possibly unaware of how much she does communicate with them.
386
As well as the investigation that was put through,
387
officers were able to look at surveillance video from the courthouse where they did see this defendant's car.
388
She pulls into the parking lot and they are able to track her through the parking lot, through the front of the courthouse,
389
and then she parks in the back employee lot backs in and is facing the restricted area.
390
Miss Light's actions yesterday are extreme.
391
All right.
392
So going through that, obviously, all of the things that I've mentioned before, you've seen as she's trying to compute what's going on with that.
393
You've seen the eyebrow activation, all of that.
394
We're going to talk about this expression here that we're having here on the screen.
395
Very overt lips pressed together upside down, we're doing a partial mouth shrug, you could see that predominantly again through the chin boss.
396
That's the thing that drives a mouth shrug as opposed to something like an actual crying grief frown.
397
When we're seeing this sort of expression here with the lips press like that, one of the things that Joe Navarro, who is a big name in body language,
398
something that he saw through his fieldwork with the FBI is something
399
that I do kind of appreciate is that when the lips disappear, I think is the way that he says this
400
when the lips disappear it's like anger is near
401
or frustration is near negativity is near and that that coming out
402
and there kind of makes sense maybe she's feeling frustrated
403
or angry about an aspect of that possibly the reason
404
that I'm a little less believing of that is
405
because of the activity up here in her eyes you're seeing
406
that there's no activation really in her glabella region
407
and then also along with
408
that in her eyes themselves she's not squinting there's no tenseness around
409
that so that sort of move possibly it is definitely muddy to be sure
410
but it's a substantial emotional expression
411
that i wanted to call light to uh it just doesn't
412
have enough around it to be able to say like oh
413
this is the exact meaning for this specific movement are extremely extremely um there's a lot of issues that come with it.
414
It's very clear that this is a situation that is very serious for the Commonwealth.
415
This is a case in which she is,
416
she is, excuse me, she is filming jurors that are coming out of the building.
417
This is
418
if i could just have one moment your
419
honor yes i need a water
420
yep the courthouse has taken
421
extraordinary measures for this case to protect the protocols as well as the safety
422
and sanctity of the um this individual is not only videoing jurors
423
that are coming in
424
and out of the courthouse she went back there to a restricted area she was caught in
425
that restricted area the sanctity of the judicial system is at risk because of her actions
426
it's an extremely serious matter for the commonwealth
427
and the integrity of the proceedings The Commonwealth does believe that $50,000
428
is more than reasonable in this case due to the nature and circumstances of this defendant's actions.
429
A lot of time and attention, as well as work from the court,
430
the court officers, the staff of this court to protect the sanctity of the judicial system these jurors,
431
there was a court order by Judge Sullivan in which there was a supplemental order regarding protocol for media coverage of view.
432
Essentially, according to Judge Sullivan in Rule 119-2b, the court prohibits the filming or photographing of any juror at any time,
433
including during court proceedings and court-conducted view.
434
No person shall contact, follow, interview, or communicate in any way with the juror prior to the discharge of the jury
435
or otherwise harass or tamper with the juror before, during, or after the view.
436
Although she states that she was looking for Lindsay Clancy to come out of the courthouse, it was clear that she was filming the jurors.
437
Court officers were able to determine she was videoing the jurors,
438
and she was in clear violation of the order by Judge Sullivan in this case.
439
For those reasons, Your Honor, the Commonwealth is asking for $50,000 cash bail, as well as the conditions set forth,
440
that she not come into any contact with any potential jurors, witnesses in the case, as well as to stay off of court grounds,
441
as well as the courthouse itself.
442
I'll let you use all of the information
443
that we've talked about already to relate to her responding and reacting to all these things.
444
The glabella action, the shaking of the head, the lip compressions, all of that.
445
That all still exists throughout this as we're going through.
446
Something else that does strike me as interesting
447
that she does during this time is again once it's coming
448
around to this photographing of the jurors we're seeing the other only time
449
that we've seen a manipulator come up to her face and it's on the other eye this time.
450
It wasn't this eye, it's now this this one and so maybe both of her eyes are itching.
451
Could also be like we we mentioned, she has glasses.
452
She needs them to see.
453
Maybe her eyes start to bother her if she doesn't wear those glasses long enough.
454
So it could be explained away by the context.
455
It is interesting that that spikes when it comes around to the photographs again, which is where it spiked last time as well.
456
She obviously does not agree with this mindset of I was filming the jurors.
457
She was looking for Lindsay Clancy, which I can see where she has that delineation.
458
However, I don't think that that delineation clears up this matter.
459
I think that it is an important one for this specific, the minutia, the details of this specific instance,
460
but I think the overarching issue at hand still exists regardless of those details.
461
Regardless, as this goes on and we kind of get these past these portions that Light obviously does not agree with, she's showing very clearly non-verbally that she doesn't.
462
Now that we've gotten kind of past that and she's responded to those non-verbally.
463
Now we're seeing this again down here at the screen.
464
You could see it.
465
It's very clear.
466
A lot of exposing of the neck there.
467
And again, tilting the head at an angle.
468
She's almost looking down her nose at what's going on here.
469
And it's, again, that defiance, perhaps confidence.
470
It all communicates this.
471
You've got this wrong and I do not agree with you.
472
And I feel confident in not agreeing with you.
473
So much so that I'm not going to, I'm not defensive.
474
I'm not closing in.
475
I'm not feeling tense.
476
I'm showing that I'm not threatened by this.
477
Which we'll talk about part of the issues around that here at the end.
478
Am I right that Ms. Light has no prior criminal record?
479
She does not have any prior record.
480
The commonwealth's request is based on the facts of the case
481
as well as the seriousness of the facts of the case where she is tampering essentially with the jurors in this case.
482
Thank you.
483
Trenny White.
484
Thank you, Your Honor.
485
Your Honor, my client strongly opposes that was
486
that was a pretty lackluster attempt at polite like a polite
487
expression there at the end we'll rewind it she's like man
488
this is the worst here on the screen eyebrows drawn together
489
lowered frustration eye blocking gesture the same tight-lipped pursed-lipped expression that's
490
all frustration that's disdain that's some disgust as we're seeing obviously again in the corners of her nose down in there.
491
She has a whole slew of bad, bad emotional responses to that mindset of tampering with the jurors.
492
And then thank you, your honor happens.
493
And she's like, Oh, I got it.
494
I got to respond.
495
And so she busts out this expression here, which is eyebrow flash.
496
I'm being social and being, you know, warm and open to something.
497
But the bottom half of her face is saying anything
498
but just a poorly masked frustration with some of this more socially lubricated nonverbal communication of, yes, I'm open to it.
499
Yes, 100%.
500
But realistically, no, we'll hear how that kind of plays out.
501
I strongly opposes Commonwealth's request for $50,000 cash bail.
502
Miss Light is a retired registered nurse who's worked as a registered nurse for over 25 years.
503
She is now on a fixed income
504
and unable to post this sale she's resided in sutton massachusetts for over 30 years
505
and she raised her children there she is not a flight risk obviously has very strong ties to our community
506
and in addition your honor as your honor just inquired my client has no record she's 56 years old
507
and has been an upstanding citizen this is a complete misunderstanding
508
your honor as my sister just stated my client was seeking a picture of Ms. Clancy
509
and had no intention of any interaction with the jurors.
510
Your Honor, my client also understands the magnitude and the seriousness of this charge.
511
She has the utmost respect for our judicial system.
512
For these reasons, Your Honor, we're asking that the court denies Commonwealth's request for $50,000 bail, but Ms. Light does agree to the stay away conditions that the Commonwealth has requested,
513
and she also does agree to preserve any possible evidence.
514
Anything else, Commonwealth?
515
No, you're on.
516
Okay.
517
All right.
518
The purpose of bail is to assure the defendant's appearance in court, as noted by both the Commonwealth and the defendant, the defense counsel.
519
The defendant has no prior record and appeared this morning after her arrest.
520
It was yesterday afternoon.
521
Is that correct, Commonwealth?
522
That is correct.
523
Okay.
524
All right.
525
While not imposing a cash bail, the court does find it necessary to impose the conditions requested by the commonwealth
526
so she'll be ordered to stay away from the courthouse grounds and obviously that would be
527
exclude any court appearances going forward she's ordered to stay away
528
and have no contact with any any jurors
529
or witnesses in the lindsey clancy trial she used to refrain
530
from disseminating photos from her eye cloud of any photographs taken and related to the incident
531
I think that was all of the conditions.
532
That is correct.
533
Okay.
534
And would you like to preserve evidence?
535
Yes.
536
And she's agreed to that condition.
537
Yes, you're on.
538
Okay.
539
And judge if I could just where I did cite the, the court order, the rule 1 19 to be.
540
Which is in regards to protocols for media coverage and preview
541
if I could just ask that you comply with that as well.
542
Thank you.
543
How do you want that word? worded the comply with what was the order
544
that order number in accordance to rule 119 to be
545
and i can provide a copy for the court uh no that's okay i just want to make sure
546
that the condition is clear so comply with rule 119 to be okay
547
and you want to we'll use the date of october 15th
548
yes attorney white was for bail only on the commonwealth versus dawn light 26 59 cr 1187
549
Court's going to enter a not guilty plea on your behalf.
550
October 15th of 2026 is your return date for a pretrial hearing.
551
Personal recognizance.
552
Attorney White was for bail only.
553
Bail colloquy was given.
554
You have all of these stay away conditions, the specifics and the breakdown.
555
You're to refrain from photos, preserve evidence.
556
All of the specific terms
557
and conditions outlined by the judge in this court will be
558
signed off with probation second floor before you leave the building
559
today all parties on the light matter you're all set thank
560
you thank you madam second floor probation before you leave the building today thank you
561
and that's where that actual the the whole
562
that that's it that's the whole thing we went through the
563
entirety of it thanks for sticking with as we had the areas where there just wasn't too much to talk about there.
564
At the end obviously things that had needed to be communicated had been communicated this
565
is uh that I think
566
that this wrapped up as nicely as this specific situation can the person didn't do much damage
567
and accepted all of the parameters around it aside from the $50,000 that situation there.
568
But even with this wrapping up so nicely, this situation I think highlights a lot of what is very difficult around this case.
569
And it's the mindset of taking things from an online perspective or a moved perspective,
570
intersocial situation where you chat about it with your friends or watch videos on the internet,
571
something like that, takes it from that area and then it moves it into tangible real life down rubber hitch road situation.
572
And that's where it starts getting problematic.
573
This case has been so pervasive in the media.
574
Again, the possibility of finding another jury set that has not heard about it and already developed an opinion is,
575
that is a task that I do not envy whoever it is that's trying to find these folks.
576
It's going to be very difficult.
577
everybody's very very opinionated on it and it's very polarized it's it's
578
so interesting to watch how this dynamic has played out uh
579
there are two very distinct camps of patrick did it
580
and lindsey did it
581
and from the legality side of things how everything is moving forward it seems as though lindsey has admitted
582
and patrick has admitted and everybody is agreeing that lindsey did it
583
but that there are these details that are the the minutiae around it
584
that are is was she in psychosis was she not.
585
Like that's kind of what the legal side is representing it.
586
On the opposite side, on the internet's side of things.
587
Everybody is concerned for a number of both valid and invalid reasons.
588
On some levels I do think that many people are confirmation biasing their way through this case.
589
They look for a thing because they want to find
590
that thing then they'll find that thing and plug it in
591
and make it fit and because it fits then they can move on down that way when they're not actually asking like, how does this fit anywhere else?
592
Or how can I be proven wrong in this situation?
593
They're only asking, how can I be proven right?
594
Which leads down the road to confirmation bias.
595
I do think that that is a player in this game.
596
I also do think that it would be difficult to deny the fact
597
that there are some details specifically around the evidences
598
and the investigation itself that seems like it might not be holding the weight that is wanted to be presented.
599
So I also understand that camp.
600
Where I do take issue though is if you are in either camp, don't get involved on a direct level like this.
601
Everybody has free speech.
602
Everybody can say what they want to on the internet.
603
Everybody is, you know, they're able to have their opinion as long as they qualify it as an opinion
604
and they're not intentionally trying to disperse wrong information.
605
They're not trying to be misinformation filled or disinformation filled.
606
They're trying their best to say what they think is actually true, they have the right to free speech.
607
That's fine.
608
And especially when there's removal that way.
609
It's when you, when you cross that boundary of now, now you're no longer just right of free speech.
610
For instance, Ms. Light here, she broke multiple legalities to get a picture of what she's saying.
611
She just wanted a picture or a video of Lindsay Clancy.
612
No need for it.
613
Nobody actually, nobody outside of the courtroom needs anything from inside the courtroom.
614
It's not our job.
615
It's not our business.
616
It is exclusively the people inside.
617
That being said, this is such a public case.
618
Everybody has opinions.
619
And I think that everybody who has the opinions that they do, regardless of how strong or which side it's on, I think everybody is really still gunning for the same concept.
620
They're all doing this out of something of care, of wanting justice, of wanting fairness and all of these aspects.
621
I think everybody wants those things.
622
I think it's just everybody's so ready to attack, demean, and in some cases like this,
623
break boundaries, even legal boundaries, to try to produce things for their side of things,
624
when in reality, again, it's just as much as it's difficult to swallow, it's just not our place.
625
And that's where I think a lot of people are straying and becoming problematic, even so much so that some of the players within the courtroom themselves have issued warnings of like,
626
hey, all of these people that are spreading misinformation or disinformation, be wary, you know, be prepared.
627
This could have a backlash on you, which I think is a valid thing.
628
It's so messy all the way around.
629
So let me know your thoughts in the comments of this video.
630
Which camp are you in and why?
631
Try to be civil because realistically speaking, being very negative or attacking or abrasive or harsh or condescending
632
or rude or mean or whatever to the other party is never going to lend towards progress.
633
It just doesn't.
634
So if you do have an opinion, let us know in the comments of the video.
635
Let us know thoughtfully in the comments of the video why you believe that.
636
Don't be condescending.
637
Don't be a dick, regardless of what side you're from.
638
And hopefully that will engage people into something that's more productive instead of just Regardless, that's all that I've got for the day.
639
My name is Logan and you have been oh so awesome as you always are.
640
And I will see you in the next video.
641
Cheers guys!

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
