How to spot a lie—Brian Oxman Part 2

This is the CNN interview that I mentioned previously. He gave this almost immediately after he gave the impromptu interview. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARi_uuit3Hg.

0:30 “What kinds of detail are you hearing from doctors.” He says that he hasn’t spoken to the doctors, but he has spoken to the family members and they don’t know anything. Again, I ask myself the same question. It is about 2 hours after he was officially pronounced dead. How do they not know anything?

1:25 “Can you confirm to us that he is dead?” He responds by saying that no one has confirmed anything with him. All he knows is that the family is crying.

1:55 “Who was with him at the time?” He believes that Frank DiLeo was there, but he is not positive.

2:40-3:40 “Do you know what kind of physical condition he was in?” According to Oxman, he was in good physical condition. The only thing that bothered him was the discussion of Michael one day dying. Oxman says that today was not unexpected, because of the drugs he was taking and compared to Anna Nicole Smith’s case, this is much worse.

3:40 He says that Michael had trouble keeping up with the other dancers due to his injuries and use of medication.

4:45 “So Brian, you’re telling us that you were able to observe some of these rehearsals and you found him to be in a somewhat weakened condition?” He quickly replies, “No, no. He was in fine condition. We never saw him in any kind of weakened condition.” Didn’t he just say that injuries and medication were getting in the way? He can’t have it both ways. Either he believes that Michael was on drugs or he doesn’t.

So according to Oxman, Michael was in a very good physical condition, but also taking more drugs than Anna Nicole Smith. How is that possible?

Believe.
