Forensic Linguistic Analysis
Up Grades/ Down Grades/ A Change In Language/Order

What does Up Grades/Down Grades mean in a statement. In a statement we look to see how people, objects and locations are introduced and when they are introduced within a written or oral statement. When talking about a person for the first time a proper introduction is expected so the reader knows who you are talking about. Such as my friend Susan, or my wife Pearl, my sister Karen, my mother Anna, etc. When a persons name just enters a statement without a proper introduction we do not know who the writer is talking about. This would flag the examiner that there is the possibility a poor relationship exists between the two people. In Forensic Linguistic Analysis the order of how people are introduced is not as important as how they are introduced within a event or alibi statement.

In a non event/alibi statement such as a list of something or people we want to invite for a dinner order is telling you my mind set and people or things that are important to me.

Example; Pearl asks me "Tony what do we need from the market?

I state, coffee, milk, eggs and list other items we need. Order is telling you coffee is very important to me, and it is. I can't live without my morning coffee.

On Saturday morning's my wife Pearl and I go down to the canal for a few hours, we will do that early on a Saturday morning when we can.
On the way home she received a text stating that flowers were delivered on our door step. The card read to Pearl and Anthony. She asked me who do you think did that. I said to her it is someone who knows you or is closer to you than he/she is to me. She asked how do you know that? I explained the order on the card tells me that, Pearl and Anthony. Your name came first. When we came back home the flowers were from her ex. boss/attorney that she worked for, for over twenty years. In an event or alibi statement the order people are introduced is not as important as 'How they are introduced." Within their statement.

In my statement I introduced Pearl to people so you will know who Pearl is, second throughout the statement I used the pronoun "we" that shows a partnership and a relationship between Pearl and I.
If that Statement read "Pearl and I went down to the canal, Pearl and I will do that early on a Saturday morning when possible, Pearl and I come home early. That statement would flag me if something happened between Pearl and I or at least that something is not right. First, she was never given a proper introduction. Second, the statement is devoid of the pronoun "we." The shortest sentence is the best sentence, after a proper introduction was made and the connection "Pearl and I" was used, I should now use the pronoun "we." Lack of the pronoun "we" in a statement is telling the examiner a problem or issue exists between the two of us.

Now we look for changes in language, "a change in language is a change in the writers reality." For example in the following statement the writer wrote;

" I got up and took a shower and got ready to go to work, I went back to "our" bedroom to say goodbye to Susan. I left "the" bedroom shorty thereafter and went to work, it was about 7:30 AM. I returned home after work and found Susan in "my" bedroom dead. I called the Police and that is all I can say."

The down grade in his statement is he went from "our" bedroom to "the bedroom" to the up grade to "my bedroom" when he came back home from work. This is very telling. First who is Susan? She was never given a proper introduction. This would indicate a poor relationship between the two of them. We also have the statement "to say goodbye" that does not mean he "said goodbye," the words "shortly thereafter it was about 7:30 AM" is not an exact time reference. This tells me there is a block of missing time in his narrative. We would want to know how much time it took for him to say goodbye and how long he spent with Susan and what time he went to work and what time he arrived at work. The words "all I can say," tells me he is limited by what he wants to say, a better sentence should have been, "that is all I know." In this statement he is limited by his knowledge.

Many times a perpetrator of a crime will unknowingly put the time of the crime within their statement without knowing it, as was the case in this instance.
The Down Grades in his statement was, "our bedroom" to "the bedroom" to a change to "my bedroom," when he arrived back home from work. The time of 7:30 AM is when his language changed from "our bedroom" to "the bedroom." There he was distancing himself from the bedroom, we would want to know why. When he came home from work he now calls "the bedroom," "my bedroom" from "the bedroom." This Up Grade is even worse.

It is no longer "our bedroom" only his "my bedroom." This man admitted to killing Susan before he went to work. Susan was his wife.
Down Grades are very important within a statement and when the Down Grades took place.

Down Grades such as; "my room" to "the room," "my girlfriend to the girlfriend" or a name that enters a statement without a proper introduction. The reason for this is people find it very hard to admitting to hurting a family member or loved one. Many times the person will distance themselves from the close tie by changing the language from "my wife" or "my Girlfriend" to using their wife or girlfriend's first name "Susan."

A Down Grade would be "my home" to "the house." Down Grades would include people, objects and locations. Remember a change in language is a change in reality. This change will prompt the examiner to ask additional questions as to why there was a change in their language and why this change took place.

Profiling
Hybristophilia
Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome

I watched three young women yesterday in front of the court house where the accused murderer Mr. Mangione is being tried for the killing of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. These women were given press passes and are not reporters. They were defending Mr. Mangione and calling him a hero and expressing their undying love for him. They were cursing and swearing and being the center of attention. This is a prime example of what is called hybristophilia or the Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome.

The emotionally immature person, however, has low levels of self-esteem and self-confidence and consequently feels insecure, to counter these feelings of insecurity they will spend a large proportion of their lives creating situations in which they become the center of attention. It may be that the need for attention is inversely proportional to emotional maturity, therefore anyone indulging in attention-seeking behaviors is telling you how emotionally immature they are.
Personalities can acquire attention in both covert and overt ways. The attention seeking behavior is on a bell curve from mild to extreme. The difference in behavior is based on their emotional makeup, intensity level and underlying traits identified and evaluated in their profile. There are traits that will reinforce the trait of deep need for attention and traits that reduce this trait. No two personalities will act the same way. The trait of deep need for attention is found in both men and women.

There are many reasons for hybristophilia and the medical community is doing research today to understand the reason behind this disorder.
Hybristophilia (also known as Bonnie and Clyde syndrome) is defined in psychology as a sexual or romantic attraction to individuals who have committed crimes, especially violent or outrageous crimes​​.

Hybristophilia: is a paraphilia of the predatory type in which sexual arousal, facilitation, and attainment of or**sm are responsive to and contingent upon being with a partner known to have committed an outrage, or crime, such as r**e, murder, or armed robbery." The term is derived from the Greek word hubrizein, meaning (to commit an outrage against someone) In popular culture, this phenomenon is also known as (Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome).
Hybristophilia
By ALL-ABOUT-PSYCHOLOGY.COM

The term, was coined by sexologist John Money in 1986, refers to a predatory-type paraphilia wherein a person is “sexuoerotically turned on only by a partner who has a predatory history of outrages perpetrated on others”​. In other words, the knowledge of a partner’s criminal violence is the source of arousal. While relatively rare, hybristophilia is highly relevant to both forensic and social psychology.

It sits at the intersection of abnormal attraction and criminal behavior, raising questions about why some individuals develop affection for convicted violent offenders. Studying hybristophilia is significant because it can illuminate the psychological mechanisms of attraction to danger, influence how criminals are managed (since some attract devoted followers), and reveal how media coverage of notorious criminals might foster “serial killer groupies.”

This article provides a multidisciplinary examination of hybristophilia, drawing on psychological theories, criminological case studies, and sociocultural analysis. It will explore the possible causes and mechanisms behind hybristophilia, discuss notable cases and their forensic implications, examine the influence of media and popular culture, consider ethical and legal issues, and evaluate whether hybristophilia should be treated or viewed as a clinical concern. Throughout, the discussion is grounded in peer-reviewed research and expert analyses to ensure a critical, evidence-based perspective.

I Told You.

More and more information and truth is now coming to light about the Corona Virus. The WHISTLEBLOWER now testifying in front of Congress is going to blow the lid off everyone's deception. I stated from day one everyone was lying. Now everyone is now back peddling on how this virus was developed and how it escaped from the laboratory in Wu Han. Dr. Faucci knew and was involved with his Gain-of-Function research using American taxpayer money. He has lied from day one. Now the Department of Energy and the FBI over the weekend is stating the Corona Virus came from the Lab in Wu Han. Below is my article written back in 2020 I posted on my pages. I knew over three years ago they were hiding the truth and being deceptive.

The media, social media, the Chinese Government with the WHO, our Government blocked everyone who disagreed with your narrative. You demonized everyone who asked questions, called them conspiracy theorists, were banned on social media for giving misinformation, they are all right-wing nut cases, you owe everyone an apology. The only people giving misinformation was all of you. Dr. Faucci needs to be held accountable. His social experiment caused death, pain, loss of businesses, people losing their jobs and being forced to take a vaccine they did not want to take, and the harm they caused closing schools. Below is one of my articles I posted back in January of 2020.

China and the Corona Virus

I stated in my posts going back to January 29th 2020 that something was not making sense to me. The Chinese Governments words, actions and changing stories told me something was not right about the origin of the Corona Virus. I wrote articles in January, February, and in March that I was not buying their story. I stated time and time again in my articles that I do not believe one word that comes out of their mouths and there was more to this story than the world was being told.

The evidence and facts that is now coming into light makes my theory crystal clear that the Chinese Government was working on this strain of Corona virus and it escaped the laboratory in Wu Han. The Chinese Government along with the World Health Organization were both lying about the origin of the Corona virus. It did not come from people eating bats in Wu Han. As a matter of fact, this bat called a horseshoe bat was never sold in the wet markets in Wu Han where the facility that was working on this virus was located. The Chinese Government knew what had happened and hid the true facts. Many innocent Chinese people and people around the world paid a price for their deception with their lives.
In deception detection I pay very close attention to your words and actions. When they are not congruent with each other that tells this profiler that deception is present. When China changed their story and blamed the United States Army for delivering this bio-chemical weapon into China I knew my theory was correct. The Chinese Government knew the truth would come out at some point and had to get ahead of their biochemical weapon research so let's blame the United States.
If you want to blame someone lets lay blame where it belongs, not with the Chinese people who are at the mercy of this corrupt Government, not with Asian Americans, not with Donald Trump, not with anyone else but the Chinese Government and the World Health Organization. In Forensic Profiling, "don't pay attention to what a person is saying or doing, pay very close attention to what "it is" they are saying and doing." Remember in deception detection. "Their words and actions will betray them" only if you watch and listen. The words and actions by the Chinese Government told this profiler very early on they were lying.

Understanding Human Behavior
Profiling
Deception

How easy is it to detect deception? I can tell you point blank it is not as easy as people would have you believe. Many people tell me I know the person is lying. I ask how? They will tell me my gut or instinct is telling me. Sometimes this is true, you have a feeling, or you are picking up on something that doesn’t feel right. Many times, you are inaccurate because of many of the statements you can read on the internet about detecting deception. Many of these statements are not based on research and are false.

It is important to understand that different personality types handle stressful situations differently. The more emotional personality type your Extrovert are very quick on their feet. They can be deceptive and can talk their way around their stress when being questioned about a situation. The more emotional controlled personality types your Ambivert and Introvert personality type are more concerned about how their being perceived by you in their answers to your questions. You may see and hear hems and haws when answering you and may be misunderstood as being deceptive. Dr. Paul Ekman calls this the Brokaw hazard.

A person’s emotional make up must also be taken into consideration so we do not make the mistake of falling into what Dr. Ekman calls the Brokaw Hazard or the Othello Error.

Brokaw Hazard:

For example, Introvert, Extrovert and Ambivert personality types handle stressful or threatening situations much differently from one another. Emotionally controlled personalities, such as the Introvert / Ambivert, are more concerned with how others perceive them. They have a very analytical thinking process, and can be very poor communicators when put under stressful situations. They will spend time thinking about the right words to express themselves. The hesitation in their speech and the anxiety shown in their body language may be misinterpreted as deceit.

The Extrovert personality types are very out going, gregarious and fun loving types of people. They have a rapid thinking process and can think quickly on their feet. Their friendly, out going and expressive body language can confuse you, when they are being deceptive.

Othello Error :

When we go in to an interview or interrogation with an accusatory attitude, we put the person on the defensive. We, in effect, cause the behaviors in that person that we are trying to detect, identify and analyze. We have, in effect, contaminated the experiment.

A base line behavior pattern norm must be identified. To acquire a true base line behavior, you must keep the person you are dealing with in a state of comfort. Any deviation from that person’s normal base line behavior pattern can be analyzed in the context of the situation that you are in.

What is important to understand when a person is being honest every question you ask carries the same weight. They will answer your questions in a direct, straight forward manner. They are not carrying "guilty knowledge" where this places a very heavy cognitive load on their thinking process. They are thinking on "how" to answer your questions, rather than "answering" your questions directly.
Body language is very difficult to use unless you have a good understanding on nonverbal communication and how our Limbic system expresses itself through our body language "tells" when in a state of comfort or discomfort. You need a good base line read when the person is in a state of comfort and detecting a change in those base line behaviors when asking questions that they do not want to answer because of their "guilty knowledge" in the situation you are involved in. Never go into a conversation or interview with an accusatory tone, this will put the person you are talking to in a defensive frame of mind. You may take their defensive posture as being deceptive.

One of the most obvious is when you start asking questions that are sensitive to the person you are talking to and there is a complete change in "emphasis," being expressive with their hands and arms changing to sitting there like they are flash frozen in their chair. Also be cautious when a person is looking into your eyes to much when answering your questions. People have learned from a very young age that looking into someone's eyes is a sign of honesty. Deceptive people will overcompensate in this theory and look into your eyes to much when answering your questions in an attempt to look honest. Most people who are being honest will answer your question looking at you and then turn away as you digest their answer.

Also pay attention to their words, when you ask a sensitive question and he/she starts stating "I swear to God, I swear om my mother's grave, don't you know me better than that." Remember I don't know anything unless you tell me. When they are using the words "you know" they want you to take their honesty for granted. They will use this tactic to make you feel foolish for asking the question in the first place. You will notice they never answered your question in a straight forward, direct manner. Also pay close attention to the words, "I could never, I would never, do such a thing." They did not say "no, I didn't do it." You cannot use the word "never" for the word "no" unless you asked "have you ever" than answering I have "never" would be acceptable.

Also pay close attention to a great deal of extraneous and unconnected information when answering your question. Deceptive people believe the more they talk, the more honest they are coming across when answering your questions. The problem is they never answered your question.

The innocent goes forward, the guilty do not. When a honest person is being accused of a crime or a situation they did not commit they will be very aggressive in proving and expressing their honesty. Their aggressive posture is not an indication of dishonesty as many people have always believed. People have believed that a person being defensive is a sign of dishonesty. This is not always the case. The honest person with nothing to hide will do everything in their power to prove their honesty and leave no stone unturned in doing so. The guilty person will not.
Also pay close attention when a person states "that it, that is all I can say vs that is all I know." "All I can say" is telling me they are limited by what they want to tell me, leaving out other important information they do not want me to know.
"That’s all I know" he/she is limited by their knowledge.

Michael Jackson
Personality Profile

My threat assessment profile on Michael Jackson is not based on my thoughts, feelings or emotions about him. It is based on his behavior patterns and traits found in his handwriting at the time this document was penned, no more, no less.

Michael at the time this document was penned was an Ambivert and could be at times an Expressive Ambivert personality type based on his emotions and frame of mind at the time he penned the document. Handwriting is brain writing and can fluctuate during time of stress, health issues and emotional changes.
There was slight moodiness in the handwriting which tells me he was undergoing a stress/trauma yet to be identified. I will explain the Ambivert personality type and what can be expected from them under controlled/uncontrolled circumstances.

Ambivert Personality
These personalities are in between the Introverted personality and the more emotional Extroverted personality. There is much more to the Ambivert personality than I will explain here. Ambiverts can be suppressed Ambiverts, Ambiverts and expressive Ambiverts. Again their behavior patterns are on a bell curve. No two personalities will act exactly the same. I will give you a more accurate basic overview of these complex and misunderstood personalities.
Ambivert personalities are well controlled; they are referred to as being controlled by their logic, objectivity or simply their head. Emotional personalities are referred to as being controlled by the heart or their emotions. Emotional experiences such as love, hurt anger, sorrow, joy, etc., are locked inside the Ambivert personality. Ambiverts experience emotions like you and I they just deal with it in a different way. Their emotions are more suppressed and only are expressed when they feel they can do so safely.
The Ambivert under normal conditions is afraid of emotion and has a difficult time expressing it. They simply do not know how to do it. They normally express emotion by doing things for you. They will cook for you, run errands, give you their time, money, be a good listener and are very dependable. However, in order for them to give you this loyalty, you have to be accepted by them. It is not whether you like him/her or whether you accept him/her, nor whether you want him/her as a friend/ lover. It is whether they like, accept or want you! That is the deciding factor. The Ambivert cannot be dealt with in an emotional manner. You have to be firm, honest, logical, and sincere and express confidence in your product and service as well as yourself.

The Ambivert lives by a code "what is in the best interest of everyone." They are your peace makers. The Ambivert being well controlled emotionally will handle emotional experiences or confrontations with a cool, calm and overtly composed manner. Due to this overt facade, those who come into contact with the Ambivert normally misread them and assume they are cold, aloof unemotional and simply detached. This is not the case at all. Overtly they may project the above behavior, but covertly they are experiencing raging emotional discomfort. The Ambivert does not handle emotional nonsense and foolishness very well. That is not logical to them and drains the Ambivert of their emotional intensity. Ambiverts many times than not will become involved with the more emotional extrovert. This is when problems arise.
The Extrovert is emotional all the time while the Ambivert is emotional some of the time. When the Ambivert is subjected to consistent emotional pressure by the more emotional Extrovert the Ambivert will look for ways to escape from you. They need to recharge their emotional batteries. Ambiverts like their solitude and can do very well by themselves. There is less emotional pressure put on them and they can do what they do best, function in an unemotional way. Ambivert personalities are a one person, one place, one thing type of personality. What this means is that Ambiverts will wrap themselves around one person which could be their husband, wife, girlfriend. One place, is their home. The one thing, is their job, hobby. This is the security blanket for the Ambivert personality. If anyone of these key areas of their lives comes under attack these personalities can become very disorientated. As their internal emotional pressure builds and builds, Ambiverts like a jack in the box will simply explode. The reason for this behavior is Ambiverts suppress, suppress and suppress, keeping all of that emotional energy locked up inside. Unlike the more emotional Extrovert who will express/vent and let out steam to take the edge off. The Ambivert will suppress and not vent and will keep all that energy locked up inside. The problem with the Ambivert is you never know how far down their fuse has been spent or burnt away. When they cannot suppress their emotions anymore and an emotional upheaval occurs, it is like a volcano exploding.
Those associated with the Ambivert can be taken aback, since this sort of overt behavior is not the norm for the Ambivert and often confuses those close to him/her. Loyalty and honesty are very important to the Ambivert, when lied to, hurt or double crossed they will forgive you but never forget. The Ambivert personality will never totally trust you again.

The Ambivert must always feel in control and explore all avenues in order to feel secure in their actions. Therefore they have a tendency to get bogged down in detail they will think and analyze a situation when intense emotions are coming into play. Ambiverts learn very quickly from past mistakes of an emotional nature. They will go out of their way to avoid making the same mistakes again.
The main reason it takes time to get emotionally close to an Ambivert. Depending on the intensity level of the Ambivert personality when these personalities have snapped and gone into a negative, hostile frame of mind these people can be extremely explosive. Their explosive potential can be expressed with devastating consequences.

Ambiverts live by a code "what is in the best interest of everyone" the more emotional Extroverted personality does not understand that concept very well. This statement does not mean that the Ambivert is an wimpy ass kisser. This statement means that the Ambivert will look at a situation and analyze it. The Ambivert will do what is in their best interest and also what is in the best interest of others.
Example; You have two Extroverted friends who are having a argument, each one thinks they are right. Both are your friends. One says to you, "she is such a bitch," I don't want you talking to her anymore. The Ambivert will not do that. The Ambivert will look at the situation and not take sides.

The Ambivert will do what is in the best interest of everyone. The Ambivert being a peace maker will try to get both of her/his friends talking again. The Extrovert now becomes angry at you for not taking his/her side. " If you were really my friend you would have taken my side" There is no logic to emotion. Believe me when Extroverts are on a roll, they have no logic.
Ambiverts do not like to hurt people on any level. There are times in the life of the Ambivert personality that hurting some else is just unavoidable. The Ambivert always feel badly after the fact. There have been a few times in my life when I have had that explosion and I have hurt someone. They did not pay attention to the warning signs, they kept pushing and pushing. That was a mistake they will not make a second time. Yet, after the confrontation, I felt bad. As I mentioned in the first article when the Ambivert explodes it is not a lovely sight.

Ambiverts are very independent personalities. They are very self sufficient. Ambiverts pride themselves on taking care of things on their own. They do not like to depend on others. Ambiverts can be and are very creative personalities. They can and will accomplish any task they are required to do. The Ambiverts face to the world is in what they do and how good they do it, as with the case with Michael.

Ambiverts do not do well with rejection, ridicule, criticism or punishment. They will drive that emotional pain inward, they will blame themselves first, where as the Extrovert will drive that pain outward and blame you.
Michael was a very intense personality (pressure factor) this is mental strength. I will explain pressure factor (intensity levels below.)

Intensity Levels
The most misunderstood trait in profiling. Intensity is mental strength not physical strength. You are born with an intensity level. Profiling based on Handwriting Analysis (American Trait Theory) tells the profiler how intense the personality is. How the personality will respond under controlled/uncontrolled circumstances. Intensity does not mean one person is better than the other person. Most people I talk to think that is the case, that concept is false. There are six levels of intensity that I would measure starting from P-1 through P-6.
P means pressure factor or your intensity level.

Intensity is the gas a personality has in their psychic gas tank at any point in time. This is identified by the pen pressure when a person writes pen to paper. The heavier and thickness of the pen stroke the more intense the personality is. I can determine a person's intensity level based on their behavior patterns. This ability takes time. What a person projects outwardly and what they are in reality are two different matters. I look for leakage in their behavior patterns and words that tells me the person is play acting. I will use a cars gas tank as a parallel so it will be easier for you to understand the intensity difference between people.
Example:

P-1 P-2 Pressure/Intensity Level has a quarter tank of gas in their psychic gas tank. These personalities are considered light pressured personalities they are kind, very sensitive, generous and loving people and do not have the energy for very prolonged issues of any kind. They can only go so far before they burn out and need time to recharge their batteries. The last thing a lighter pressured personality wants is any type of confrontation in any form. They would find P-4 to P-6 pressured personalities to intimidating for them.

P-3 Pressure/Intensity Level has a half a tank of gas in their psychic gas tank. The P-3 are your norm of society. The average person in todays society is a P-3. They are intense for their make-up they like to live a "live and let live" life style. They are is a sign of control, calmness, and good mental balance. These personalities like to walk a straight line and not bother anyone. They keep a low profile and basically live their life in a moderate, untroubled way. They are loyal, punctual and usually stay with one person or position of employment for as long as possible. They do not want to get into confrontations with people, that does not mean they won't but when they do it will be short lived. They can only deal with so much before they burn out, they can deal with more than a P-1, P-2 pressure factor can. Remember a half a tank of gas has explosive potential.

P-4 Pressure/Intensity Level has a seventy percent full tank of gas in their psychic gas tank at any point in time. These are intense personalities, they are very assertive, with lasting endurance and good staying power. They have serious explosive potential when they are set off. They can carry a lot of weight on their shoulders. These personalities would find the P-1,2,3 a little to wimpish for them. They could get along with a P-3 but they would have problems in the long run. Michael Jackson's intensity level was in-between a P-4 to a P-5.

P-5 Pressure/Intensity Level has a eighty seven percent full tank of gas in their psychic gas tank at any point in time. These personalities have an unusual amount of energy, creativity, drive, endurance and staying power. These personalities are an indicator of deep sensuality, artistic tendencies in all its forms.
They are found in professions involving cooking, chefs, restaurant owners, designers, musicians, fashion and design. These are extremely intense personalities. They work hard, play hard, and are intense sexually. They have unbelievable staying power and endurance. When these personality types are in a good frame of mind they are wonderful people who will indulge you with pleasure. They will constantly give you their energy in the form of love and happiness, they can never do enough for you. When they are in a negative frame of mind, they can become very aggressive and abusive. They can be unforgiving if offended, Due to their intensity, as a sponge absorbs water they will absorb all forms of emotion both positive and negative. When they love, they love. When they are angry or hate, they are completely angry and they hate fully. The key here is their endurance. When they go negative they are a force to content with.

P-6 Pressure/Intensity Level has a full tank of gas in their psychic gas tank at any point in time.
These personalities are the most extreme, the most intense in every aspect of their lives. Male of female it does not matter. They are the personalities who kill an elephant with an elephant gun, they also kill a mosquito with an elephant gun. They do not act this way for dramatic effect. This is how they are. These personalities have no gray. They like you, they like you, they will give you the world. They will take care of you and protect you with their own lives. If they do not like or trust you believe me, you will know it. These personality types are the most volatile, the most dangerous when they are set off. It would not be advisable to trigger these intense personalities. It is very rare that you will find a personality in this pressure range. If you, do you do not have to concern yourself, since they will find you to be weak, wimpish, and or submissive they will usually advise you of their feelings. When they are set off you will know it and will be lucky to survive it.

What is important to understand is the personalities intensity level fuels each and every trait found in their profile.
His intensity level powered every trait in Michael's profile. Intensity is the gas in the personalities mental gas tank. Michael was born with his intensity level. His intensity level was measured in the P-4 to P-41/2. That is a point and a half above the norm. The average level in todays society is a P-3. Personalities in this intensity level will accomplish any goal they put their mind to. Michael was a perfectionist. Michael wanted everything he did to be as perfect as possible, his work, music and in his appearance. He would not stop until he achieved the level of perfection he was happy with.

Michael was somewhat egotistical and vain. But not over pronounced. Michael was very good at what he did and he knew it. Michael was also very submissive and yielding, these personality types do not want to get into emotional confrontations with people. When he was accused of sexual misconduct it devastated Michael, he listened to people who he believed had he best interests at heart. These people didn't care about Michael, only his money. They led him down a very bad road. Their advice on this issue was very bad and Michael paid a very dear price for their advice.
Michael dealt with his emotions in a very youthful and immature way. Not uncommon for an Ambivert personality type, he was reliving a childhood he never had. This emotional immaturity can be misunderstood by people who do not understand the Ambivert personality type. Michael had great willpower (strength of purposes) achieving any goal he set his mind to, his goals were also very good. He was precision oriented, that precision showed in his music videos. Michael was also very deliberate, he did what he wanted, when he wanted. With the traits of precision and perfectionism he would not stop on anything he was working on in his life until he was happy with the outcome. Michael had very good manual dexterity (working well with his hands) combined with his intensity level Michael was a very creative personality.

In closing I have been a forensic threat assessment profiler for over twenty years. When I profile a personality on their behavior patterns or traits found in a sample of handwriting, there are traits I would detect, identify, analyze and evaluate to determine if the personality would be a dangerous or sexually dangerous personality type. I did not find any of these traits in the handwriting of Michael Jackson. I only wish I was advising Michael he would be alive today, he was a music icon. There will never be another Michael Jackson.

The people he trusted and believed in were only interested in his money and fame. They never cared about Michael the human being. I have had many disagreements with other forensic profilers over the years on the behavior patterns of Michael Jackson. I never believed nor do I believe to this day that Michael Jackson ever sexually abused anyone. That assessment was accurate based on the traits I detected, identified, analyzed and evaluated in Michael's handwriting. If you should have any questions please ask Josia, I will be more than happy to answer you. You can also visit my web site www.iafei.com and send me an e-mail.
