Hello everyone. Thanks for all the positive comments. I am retired from policing and teaching privately now. If you need modern science-based investigative interview training, Let's talk!
Thanks for the offer but a couple of things are against me. Firstly, my age (63) to even consider a new career path in life and secondly, I'm really not smart enough. But I would like to give a big 👍to you, sir. And my good wishes too.
Hi! We are all flabbergasted at how amazing you are. Thank you so very very much for everything you have done for victims. I wish we had more people like you
I had heard Jim Smyth had always refused interviews as he's a humble guy and didn't want to be in the limelight, so I'm delighted he agreed to be your guest, please tell him "THANK YOU" for taking part, this is a real unexpected treat giving us a real insight into his amazing skills.
Right! Every time he received an accolade from the group, he accepted and made mention of his colleagues and said that they are equally trained & experienced ♥️
Absolutely and I really hope he does join them on one of their panel discussions, man when I started this video I just knew off the bat this was going to be amazing gosh even I was almost giddy.
Mad respect for Jim's reasons for becoming such a great interrogator. I can't think of a more honorable motive than he described. Hats off to Jim and that unit he was with, for recognizing the need and importance and following thru with the work and training to meet that need.
I'm from Ukraine, hearing that Jim Smyth is teaching our officers at this moment in time was very surprising and exciting! I have high hopes! :) Thank you!
@@xx011 The people here seem "colder" and less open at first, I suppose, however, the behaviour in regards to deception is practically the same, in my experience. :)
Wow! This is quite the scoop for you guys. I remember when Russel Williams first got arrested, or at least when the interrogation video became public. Everyone, and I mean (from Dr. Phil to The View, to Nancy Grace, to Dateline. Anyone that had a show that could either mention true crime sometimes or discuss current events) wanted Detective Smyth on their show. I heard some producers literally begged. But Jim Smyth said no to . He must really respect you gentlemen. Excellent job. Congratulations!!!
Clearly Greg put him onto their video analyzing his interrogation of Colonel Williams. So it seemed clear to me that Jim likely looked at everything The Behavior Panel had been doing before agreeing to do the show. Just made good sense to do his due diligence before agreeing to come on. The fact that he’s open to possibly coming back is definitely worth pursuing. 🤔 As Scott quickly conceded that TBP will do whatever Jim wants them to look at - makes it clear that Jim’s in the driver’s seat for any follow up sessions. 👍😊👍🇨🇦🇨🇦
I am Canadian from BC This case floored me. I don't know why. The Canadian Government BURNED his uniform. That never happened in our Canadian Army ever before. The investigator was just amazing. I was surprised to tune into your channel and see the amazing investigator that put the Colonel behind bars.
I noticed that he wasn’t being judgemental at all in the interviews, which also likely goes some way to helping the suspect get less inhibited about sharing information.
With all due respect, the next merchandising idea should be Bobble Heads of The Behavioral Panel. 🤣 Watching all four Greg , Scott, Chase and Mark nodding all at the same time as Jim Smyth is talking, yes I totally love it. I would be the first to buy all four ‼️😂
BOBBLE HEADS! What a great idea. 🥰 I would totally buy a set. We’re not joking; we really want them. How do we get them to see this request to look into having them made and added to their merch store?
Strangely I’m finding him super kinda boring and annoying, so I don’t feel like I’d be moved by him. But then maybe that is exactly how it would work with me if I’d done something wrong.
I've watched this interrogation twice via The behavior panel. This is by far, one of the best interrogations I've ever seen! It was like watching Bob Ross painting an iconic landscape. Jim Smyth is a natural and, has this down to an art form. With the analysis of The behavior panel?... A thing of harmonious beauty! Thanks guys. Thank you, Jim Smyth for getting this CREEP off the streets.
That Russell Williams interrogation should be used as the Gold Standard from now until the end of time. That was the most amazing human interaction I've ever witnessed. If you haven't seen it, please watch it.
Amazing guy - I think his natural instinct plays a huge role in his successful career. Training is definitely important however he’s got a natural rapport and intuitive interrogation skills. Remarkable
He is a true class act. When he said "respect" to the question Mark had regarding how to "get" people to talk, I wasn't surprised at all by his answer. He sets the bar so high and is truly what more LEOs need as trainers. Canadians are lucky to have a guy like him in this line of work.
The disgusting, ignorant, + brutally bais American criminal justice system, could NEVER produce a "Jim Smyth"! The reactionary fueled failure of a system w/ an endless "Tough on Crime" policing policy, destroys any prayer of a drastic change to how we imprison more people than ANY other country by %!
I have never seen all 4 panel members smiling like that at the start of a video. They are like little boys meeting santa. It's understandable with such a fantastic guest.
Wow just wow, this interview has just made my life complete! The legendary Jim Smith, if only knew how many times I’ve watched his interview of Russell Williams. This man paved the way for interactive policing worldwide and made this difficult interview seem effortless.
There's something almost priest-like about Jim Smyth and his approach to the interrogation. For a police interrogation he manages to craft a remarkable illusion, an irresistable opportunity for Russell, and with his 'nice guy' persona, he falls for it. It must have felt like an intimate 'Come-to-God' opportunity to confess and relieve his guilt.
Mr Jim Smyth if by chance you happen to read this, I wish to thank you for taking part with TBP in this video, it was a real pleasure listening to you, I found your interrogation of RW fascinating, hope you will come back again.
Jim is one of the few people who is a legend in his own lifetime. The respect and genuine admiration you all showed him was so heart-warming to watch. Thank you all for your continued work and big love to Jim too 💖💖💖
Russell Williams is truly an enigma and what he did is unfathomable. Jim Smyth treated him with respect and dignity. Rest in peace Jessica and Marie 🕊️
Your absolutely best ever lads: bar none. Let's not overthink this whole thing though. Jim Smyth is a born natural at what he does. Engaging but never offensive. A credit to our Canadian police services.
I've watched the Russell Williams interrogation at least a dozen times. I have mad respect for excellent job Jim Smyth did getting Williams' confusion. Loved it when Jim goes, "Russell this is rapidly getting out of control, what are we going to do?"
Agree. He is the embodiment of integrity. The respect he showed to Williams appealed to Williams' sense of honor, twisted as it was. As he says here, other investigators would have cracked the case because the evidence was so overwhelming, but who else could have gotten that confession so fast?
Oh man!!! What a special treat that was to see Jim Smyth with the panel, I throughly enjoyed this hope you will invite Mr. Smyth back oh boy! I'm so excited! Thank you gentlemen! 😁
Mr Smyth is a honourable man and merciful in a divine mode. I believe he is a fantastic teacher and mentor who does not take himself highly than he should. Very impressed with his empathetic genuine approach, not condoning wrong doing, but showing balance and fairness this is a move that can create rehabilitation which is not coerced. Thank you all in your differences as in thought and approach.👍
This was literally the best thing I’ve seen. My heart sank a bit when it wasn’t 2hrs long, but I understand you don’t want to burn Jim out in his first appearance! What a great guy! So wise, smart and humble. We can all learn a lot from people like him. Thank you Behaviour Panel for this channel, it makes my week!
The moment Colonel Williams knew he was busted, oh, that long awkward silence sitting there quietly with arms folded. It was like he was having an out of body experience. Jim Smyth is a phenomenal investigator! Kudos to him.
It is so refreshing to see actual professionals with a YT channel. There is another popular body language channel that I used to watch, and I have unsubscribed from because it’s becoming very clear that you guys have real experience and respect for the profession that others don’t have. Bringing on guests like this proves that even more. Keep up the great content!
I am absolutely loving this!!! I am fascinated by interrogations and how they work. Thank you so much guys, this was fantastic having Jim Smyth on the show.
So much intelligence and decency in this interview. A man who has mastered his craft and using it to make things better, get answers to the affected families so they can begin to get out of limbo in the aftermath of heinous crimes.
Jim Smyth is just an amazing guy. He seems to have both a lot of empathy and a hell of a willpower to get a job done. Great guy! If you hear why the suspect chooses to talk to the police, its the small things and respect. The prison from Norway where they focus on rehabilitating inmates have the same approach, it you treat people like an animal, they'll turn into an animal.
MAN! I was excited to see this video, not only because of my amazement at Jim's expertise in his interrogation of the suspect, but also because I like the members of the Behavior Panel a lot and I knew THEY were excited! Fantastic 😁
Agree completely. I was beyond excited! I'm so afraid someone is going to figure out that this extraordinary team is out there and take them away us.😯 ❤TBP. Love that they call us panelists, too.😁
Jim Smyth is a humble down to earth man! Loved seeing all four of you light up talking to Jim and hear what he had to say! I could watch this video over and over! Thank you for sharing this with us. See you next week as always Behavior Panel ❣️
How many fellow panelists went back to rewatch The Behaviour Panel’s review? Thank you Jim for your insights, fascinating stuff. Please come back again. How engaging and respectful you all are with each other, offering unique perspectives. Love your channel ❤️
It was so endearing too watch how you guys hung onto every word Jim Smyth said, and how respectful you all were, you did look a bit star struck that he agreed to be your guest but I"m so glad he did and maybe he will make an appearance again, I think that's very possible. :)
Thank-you for having Mr Smyth on your show. I have been wanting to hear his take for so long! The man is brilliant and watching the interrogation was like watching a beautiful symphony imo.
I would LOVE to see Jim return as a guest panelist; please do your best to make that happen (if it hasn’t already; I’m catching up on your past videos as a fairly new subscriber). 🙏🏻 I’m hooked!
Well welcome to the channel, its always nice to see new panelist join. I would recommend certain past videos, but honestly their all pretty good & worth checking out. Just FYI I have made a couple recent timestamp guide comments on their Menendez Brothers & their Missing Persons Cases that may be helpful if you haven't watched them already. (I just posted them last night so they shouldn't be hard to find.)
Can't get enough of this. I asked for the Williams interview and you did it and then we have the big fat bonus of Jim Smyth. I'm a little more excited than I should be about this. Nice to see you guys being all fan girly too. This is my 2nd or 3rd time watching both straight through. Keep up the good work and giggles. x
I can’t believe he was tired when he started … and I can’t believe that he didn’t know 100% RW was guilty -- WOW!!! Terrific at his job. Great questions, BP!!!
Oh my gosh! All four you looked like this 😃 @ 55:47! It was very endearing to see how much respect you all gave to Jim. If he's too busy to join you all, just remember we come here first because of the four of you! Jim is a very humble and respectful person. He exhibits such a non- threatening demeanor, little do you know the steel trap he's got in his head! I know you all had a blast with this video! I'm just real happy for you all! Hope to see Jim again!
Yes...I wonder if Williams was responding to the body mirroring and carried it over subconsciously to mirroring his demeanor and then his respectfulness. Mimicking others is a sign of respect basically.
What a down-to-Earth, humble guy. I used to be on the opposite side of the fence to these type of guys but now I've grown up. I could have listened for longer, he's so easy to listen to and a genuinely decent fellow. Really enjoyed this guys, thank you. Deserves every bit of credit he receives. Long live the Kings!!
@@UberFubar75 Alcoholic father here too. I would just erupt with anger in certain circumstances, then look back and wonder why. Eventually I learnt to look back with an open mind, and wonder how to fix it. Got help. It's been wonderful.
I am so happy I found this. My mind was blown away having watched the Williams interrogation video and I googled the interrogator and there was almost no info on him. Thank you for bringing this guy on the show, this is all really inspiring and educational.
Excellent show tonight, thank you for inviting Jim Smyth as a guest and I am looking forward to seeing him join the panel for a topic at some point in the future!
So TBP, here’s what you all looked like: 🤩🤩🤩🤩. Totally starstruck! It’s fun to rematch and see all 4 TBP guys nodding in agreement when Jim Smyth talks. It’s great!
I saw accolades about Jim and his great interview techniques when Russell was arrested. It's a real gift to be able to interview this effectively. Congratulations to Jim and the other four fine gentlemen.
Oh my you guys are seriously, seriously killing it!!!! You did it!!! You got the master in for an interview. Wow this channel is unbelievable, can’t believe this content is free!! You’re like the Backstreet Boys of body language! Keep rocking :)
Find someone who looks at you the way The Behavior Panel looks at Jim Smyth

I had heard the same. I was so happy to see this!!
Rock star
He said thank you back
He did for years. I was shocked to see he had given an interview. He’s a cool guy, and the perfect man for the job he’s doing.
@@user-hh5rn4jz6o Great interview with a good guy who's in the right job and has the knowledge to do it properly.Thank you
I love the fact that Jim Smyth makes sure to always include his colleagues’ importance and efforts in this case get acknowledged.
Right! Every time he received an accolade from the group, he accepted and made mention of his colleagues and said that they are equally trained & experienced ♥️
Lol
OMG how many of us were yelling YES YES YES at the end when Scott asked if he’d consider being a guest panelist?
Meeeeeeee 👐😁😂😂😂
# Me too
I’m not finished the video yet but holy crap YESSSSS
So Good!
Meeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!
The TBP four are watching and listening to Jim Smith like we watch and listen to TBP. 😁
Perfectly said!
That very thought popped into my head!
You are absolutely right
Yes they were; they were almost “giddy” but in a good way!
Absolutely and I really hope he does join them on one of their panel discussions, man when I started this video I just knew off the bat this was going to be amazing gosh even I was almost giddy.
Mad respect for Jim's reasons for becoming such a great interrogator. I can't think of a more honorable motive than he described. Hats off to Jim and that unit he was with, for recognizing the need and importance and following thru with the work and training to meet that need.
Absolutely!! What a powerful reason to become a master interviewer !
It's so clear from Greg, Scott, Chase and Mark's faces that they have mad respect for Jim Smyth, not just through their words. Love it. 🇨🇦 Represent🇨🇦
Mad respect, bro crush ...

The 4 of them reminds me of how excited The Beatles were when they met Elvis.
⁸⁸
Someone say Beatles?
Or the late Prince Philip reportedly likening a visit from the Kennedys as “like meeting royalty”!
@@s.v.2796 what does 88 mean ?
It's pretty amazing that he says his success comes from treating people like people. Even bad people want to be understood.
Allowing people to keep their dignity at all times is what makes us humane humans

I’d feel like they were analysing me all day 🤣
What a down to earth, humble man. A Canadian to be proud of.
yes, he is very humble. I'm proud that he's Canadian.
I've only watched Jim Smyth for 3 minutes and I'm ready to confess to 2 murders I didn't do.

uh huh
LOL XD

Jim Smith , what a nice guy , amazing interrogator with no ego and so humble. I think I would recognise his voice first if I met him.
Definitely and a true feast of a video to devour as well..
Fear of Jim Smyth is what keeps Canadians polite.
Hahahaha

Hated when the woman joined then and talked over everyone
@@rachellewis9251 I agree. I have yet to be able to get through those programs.
Agree, great decorum which really helps.
That Russell Williams interrogation should be used as the Gold Standard from now until the end of time. That was the most amazing human interaction I've ever witnessed. If you haven't seen it, please watch it.
It humbles me when I see someone humble. Good guy.
Jim Smyth, you are humble. Thank you for your service. All Canadians thank you.
It was so great to hear from Jim Smyth, he was absolutely amazing! Thanks for having him as a guest on the channel!
Amazing guy - I think his natural instinct plays a huge role in his successful career. Training is definitely important however he’s got a natural rapport and intuitive interrogation skills. Remarkable
Could also have been a therapist. Same skills
He is a true class act. When he said "respect" to the question Mark had regarding how to "get" people to talk, I wasn't surprised at all by his answer. He sets the bar so high and is truly what more LEOs need as trainers. Canadians are lucky to have a guy like him in this line of work.
The disgusting, ignorant, + brutally bais American criminal justice system, could NEVER produce a "Jim Smyth"!
The reactionary fueled failure of a system w/ an endless "Tough on Crime" policing policy, destroys any prayer of a drastic change to how we imprison more people than ANY other country by %!
I have never seen all 4 panel members smiling like that at the start of a video. They are like little boys meeting santa. It's understandable with such a fantastic guest.
I hope Jim Smyth will come back on again. It didn't seem like an hour went by. Great job guys! Thank you.
i love how lowkey he is and doesnt seek the spotlight. what a legend
I'm Canadian I live in Oshawa Ontario and followed the Williams interaction..Jim smyth is a Canadian treasure we love Jim 💘
Wow just wow, this interview has just made my life complete! The legendary Jim Smith, if only knew how many times I’ve watched his interview of Russell Williams. This man paved the way for interactive policing worldwide and made this difficult interview seem effortless.
‘Genuine respect’ - sums Jim Smyth up. This guy did not disappoint.
I am so happy that Jim Smyth agreed to talk with us. I love watching you guys fan boy and also be able to recognize how skilled he is. Thanks!
Oh man! This is fantastic. I’ve been wanting to see him interviewed for years! Thank you, gents! Dropping everything.
It's going to be a good one Matty!✓
When the guys said they were going to contact him, I thought “Jim Smyth doesn’t do interviews.” Oh me of little faith!!!
@@Raventooth I can’t wait!

To go from 50/50 chance hes guilty to a full confession shows how skilled Detective Smyth is. Loved this. Proud Canadian here.
They knew he was guilty before they brought him in, 50/50?
Me too!!!! Even Mark was showing some Canada Pride as a resident of Toronto for past 15 years!
This is gonna be good. TBP never fail to be keep us panelists so hooked. Really really appreciate you guys and your dedication to us panelists.
Mr Jim Smyth if by chance you happen to read this, I wish to thank you for taking part with TBP in this video, it was a real pleasure listening to you, I found your interrogation of RW fascinating, hope you will come back again.
Super skilled, dignified and yet humble, lovely traits
YES!!! This is such a treat! Detective Jim Smyth is a virtuoso of low-impact interrogation.
Jim is one of the few people who is a legend in his own lifetime.
The respect and genuine admiration you all showed him was so heart-warming to watch.
Thank you all for your continued work and big love to Jim too 💖💖💖

Jim Smyth’s ability to give Williams respect during this interrogation is astonishing. Great emotional control and intelligence.
OMG YES, I’ve always wanted to know his perspective on this interrogation and his job in general. Thank you so much Mr.Smyth!
Jim Smyth is just an amazing guy. He seems to have both a lot of empathy and a hell of a willpower to get a job done. Great guy! If you hear why the suspect chooses to talk to the police, its the small things and respect.

"What’s the number one thing for getting somebody to talk?"
"Just respect, showing genuine respect". This is priceless. Thank you!
What really impressed me is how Jim Smyth doesn’t trash Colonel Williams ever during this TBP session. Very impressive.
Agree.
Pay that scumbag no respect. He was a murder and deserves the same treatment he dished out.
Barry Lee Morphew was arrested yesterday. You guys pegged him last week. Bravo!
I’d recognize Smyth’s voice anywhere. Watched that dang video too many times. 🧐
DC Smyth’s voice is amazing and so calming. A hallmark for his success along with his intuition and training. Remarkable!!!
Jim Smyth is a humble down to earth man! Loved seeing all four of you light up talking to Jim and hear what he had to say!
I could watch this video over and over! Thank you for sharing this with us.
See you next week as always Behavior Panel ❣️
So exciting!!!
Edit: The intensity on each of their faces!! They are all so locked in and I love it! What a treat!
What a great guy, he is so humble, he doesn't have ego.. love him

I wish I would have seen these guys 30 years ago, I wouldn’t have become an accountant.
Bravo guys, unsung heroes
Jim Smyth is an absolute legend. Glad you guys got him on
Wow the legendary DS Jim Smyth graces Behavior Panel. A must watch for all interrogation analysis nerds like me! 😁
Martin decoder channel is great as well if your into interrogation analysis 👍
@@mags6665 Thanks for the recommendation!
Watching all four of your body language...leaning forward, totally focused, listening intently.... to everything he says.... a real treat👍
Can't get enough of this.
I asked for the Williams interview and you did it and then we have the big fat bonus of Jim Smyth. I'm a little more excited than I should be about this. Nice to see you guys being all fan girly too. This is my 2nd or 3rd time watching both straight through.
Keep up the good work and giggles. x
I can’t believe he was tired when he started … and I can’t believe that he didn’t know 100% RW was guilty -- WOW!!! Terrific at his job.
Great questions, BP!!!
Oh my gosh! All four you looked like this 😃 @ 55:47! It was very endearing to see how much respect you all gave to Jim. If he's too busy to join you all, just remember we come here first because of the four of you!
Jim is a very humble and respectful person. He exhibits such a non- threatening demeanor, little do you know the steel trap he's got in his head!
I know you all had a blast with this video! I'm just real happy for you all!
Hope to see Jim again!
Showing genuine respect gets people to talk. Makes sense. This was a really interesting convo to watch. Thanks!
Absolutely fascinating! I’m a nurse but this made me long for the beginning of my college studies when I wanted to go into behavioral law.
Yes...I wonder if Williams was responding to the body mirroring and carried it over subconsciously to mirroring his demeanor and then his respectfulness. Mimicking others is a sign of respect basically.
What a down-to-Earth, humble guy. I used to be on the opposite side of the fence to these type of guys but now I've grown up. I could have listened for longer, he's so easy to listen to and a genuinely decent fellow. Really enjoyed this guys, thank you. Deserves every bit of credit he receives. Long live the Kings!!
Good on you for being self aware, a lot of people aren't. I was the same way as you in my younger days.
@@brassholio Thanks buddy. It took a lot of work. I had a really evil temper, just like my alcoholic Father!!!
@@UberFubar75 Alcoholic father here too. I would just erupt with anger in certain circumstances, then look back and wonder why. Eventually I learnt to look back with an open mind, and wonder how to fix it. Got help. It's been wonderful.
He seems to be a very humble guy and shares the spotlight with his colleagues, very decent.
This is absolutely great content. And I’m not just saying this because I’m Canadian 🤣. More of this!!!
Please join the team Jim!!!
........... ER.
@@solcutta3661 oh man I hadn't notice until I read that.
@@fatdragon3616 it's relentless.... Lol
I am so happy I found this. My mind was blown away having watched the Williams interrogation video and I googled the interrogator and there was almost no info on him. Thank you for bringing this guy on the show, this is all really inspiring and educational.
Excellent show tonight, thank you for inviting Jim Smyth as a guest and I am looking forward to seeing him join the panel for a topic at some point in the future!
Perhaps John Bennett Ramsey analysis
I remember you stressing to Russell that you respect people and would expect the same respect from him. That was brilliant 👏
So TBP, here’s what you all looked like: 🤩🤩🤩🤩. Totally starstruck! It’s fun to rematch and see all 4 TBP guys nodding in agreement when Jim Smyth talks. It’s great!
I Watch the Russell Williams’ interrogation about every Sox months still.
I saw accolades about Jim and his great interview techniques when Russell was arrested. It's a real gift to be able to interview this effectively. Congratulations to Jim and the other four fine gentlemen.
Awesome, I've always wanted to see an interview with Jim Smyth. He handled Russell Williams perfectly. Thanks for having him.
Oh my you guys are seriously, seriously killing it!!!! You did it!!! You got the master in for an interview. Wow this channel is unbelievable, can’t believe this content is free!! You’re like the Backstreet Boys of body language! Keep rocking :)
lol awesome comment!
A book by Jim would be incredible. This subject is fascinating. To get inside his mind, oh boy!
