Body Language Expert Identifies True Emotions Behind Casey Anthony's Interview Facade

Famously acquitted Casey Anthony is on a mission to portray her innocence in Peacock's upcoming documentary, "Casey Anthony: Where the Truth Lies."

According to body language expert and panelist on The Behavior Panel, Mark Bowden, Anthony's body language conveys that she is acutely aware of the image she wishes to portray in the series. "In the very short footage, we see first of Anthony with pursed lips grooming her hair in preparation for the video. The lips say that there are withheld thoughts," Bowden observed. But that's not all. Bowden also noted that the "sharp intake of air," the way "she flicks back her hair," and how she "closes her eyes and her neck muscles contract" all convey "a transition of preparing and protecting herself for an attack." And as it turns out, Anthony's "doe eyes" could also be a calculated move to portray her innocence "as they mimic the proportions of a child's eyes to the head." But Bowden also said that while most of Casey's body language strikes him as a direct plea for sympathy, there was one particular moment in the clip that might not have been as strategic — precisely when asked why she opted to participate in the documentary in the first place.
