[00:01] News at 10:00.
[00:04] >> New at 10:00. The country,
[00:05] even the world watching is
[00:07] Charlie Kirk accused assassin
[00:08] made his first in-person court
[00:09] appearance today. So we asked a
[00:12] body language expert to break
[00:13] down what he saw. Thanks for
[00:15] joining us. I'm Heidi Hatch.
[00:17] >> And I'm Mark Bell. Tyler
[00:18] Robinson showed up in formal
[00:20] clothes today. No visible
[00:21] restraints on him for an hours
[00:22] long hearing. We did not hear
[00:25] from him personally, but
[00:26] cameras captured his facial
[00:27] expressions and his demeanor as
[00:28] he sat in court.
[00:30] >> David Ochoa asked a body
[00:32] language expert about what he
[00:34] noticed during stand out to him.
[00:38] >> Well, his, he says his
[00:40] Robinson's apparent lack of
[00:42] concern. He says it's got him
[00:45] locked into this case, and he's
[00:46] very interested to see what we
[00:48] learn about Robinson as it
[00:49] continues on moving forward. At
[00:53] his first public court
[00:55] appearance, a well dressed
[00:57] Tyler Robinson had a little
[00:58] smile or two while talking with
[01:00] his lawyers.
[01:00] >> That's the only thing I
[01:02] looked at and went, he
[01:03] shouldn't be doing that.
[01:04] >> Scott Rouse is a renowned
[01:06] body language expert who trains
[01:07] law enforcement attorneys and
[01:08] is also an interrogator. He
[01:09] says Robinson, laughing, wasn't
[01:11] a good look for someone who's
[01:12] accused of murder. He tells
[01:13] attorneys it's okay for their
[01:15] clients to have a pleasant look
[01:16] on their face, but this might
[01:18] have been too far.
[01:19] >> I don't know what could be
[01:21] found funny during that
[01:21] situation. It would be a little
[01:23] bit tough for me to think
[01:24] something up, but apparently
[01:26] they're trying to, you know,
[01:27] alleviate some of the stress
[01:28] for him.
[01:29] >> Rouse also noticed something
[01:30] when Robinson and his attorneys
[01:31] interacted. He says their body
[01:33] language suggests they don't
[01:34] know each other very well.
[01:35] >> Their body language isn't
[01:37] the type where you want to get
[01:39] close to them or you're
[01:39] touching. They're not leaning
[01:41] the way you should lean. If
[01:42] they knew him really well, I
[01:43] don't see any any connection
[01:45] with them yet.
[01:45] >> All in all, Rouse didn't see
[01:48] much out of the ordinary for a
[01:49] proceeding like this, but he
[01:50] did see at least one thing
[01:52] missing the grief muscle.
[01:53] >> These two muscles pulled
[01:54] together, and this muscle pulls
[01:55] down. I don't see any of that.
[01:57] I don't see any grief muscle
[01:58] that lets us know he's really,
[02:00] really worried about anything
[02:01] and no concern.
[02:02] >> Now, Rouse says, you can't
[02:03] really make any distinctions
[02:05] about his personality at this
[02:06] point in time, but he did
[02:10] compare him and Bryan Kohberger.
[02:12] He says Robinson moves a lot
[02:14] more than Kohberger, who Rou
