American psychologist A. Mehrabiano proved in the last century that 55 percent the content of communication consists of body language signals, 38 percent. – voice characteristics and intonation and only 7 percent. – words.

It seems extremely important that these signs are well understood by our prosecutors.

Prosecutor A. Kazakov explained to the Kaunas District Court, which is investigating the so-called corruption case of judges, what the then lawyer D. Zagreckas and the judge of the Court of Appeal V. Kažys agreed at the State Tax Inspectorate (VMI) building.

Although the 18-second recording of their meeting is silent, the prosecutor pointed out that the lawyers who met at VMI did not greet each other or shake hands.

So it wasn’t the first time they met that day and behaved like spies from a movie: “They talked secretly, leaning into each other.”

Although V. Kažys claimed in court that he did not discuss any cases with D. Zagreck, the prosecutor saw that it was different, because the judge smiled when parting.

Officers of the Police Department are not far behind prosecutors in their knowledge of body language.

For example, when explaining to the courts why the criminalists did not respond seriously to M. Žalim’s story that D. Kedys, who fought with fictitious pedophilia, was planning murders in Kaunas, the officer of the Immunity Service indicated that the guilt of some policemen was clear and without words to them.

It was decided to follow and search the officer of the criminal police office, E. Damukaitis, simply because eye contact between the criminal officer and M. Žalim was recorded in the office.

True, such evidence was not enough for the courts – after a trial lasting almost five years, five officers were acquitted.

However, it is difficult for even the most perceptive officers to outwit the capital’s prosecutor G. Tarasevičius, who heard the clinking of glasses in a secret recording made at the company “Vilniaus Vandenys” and declared in court that the men who sat at the table and joked about traveling around the world that day committed the crime while intoxicated.
