About Stan – The Lie Guy®
Stan B. Walters has spent more than four decades training professionals in the art and science of investigative interviewing. Known globally as The Lie Guy®, Stan has helped thousands of investigators replace outdated, unreliable techniques with modern, research-backed strategies. His work is guided by a simple standard: if a method cannot survive the courtroom, it does not belong in the interview room – or in the training room.
His work includes groundbreaking research conducted inside 40 U.S. prisons, where he interviewed over 1,500 inmates to document real deception behaviors, denial tactics, and persuasive manipulation techniques.
Stan’s reputation has made him a sought-after instructor for law enforcement, military, and intelligence agencies across the U.S. and around the world — including the NSA, U.S. Army CID, Pentagon Force Protection Agency, counterintelligence units, and more.
Whether you’re new to interviewing or looking to elevate your team’s effectiveness, Stan’s teaching is focused, field-tested, and designed for results that hold up in court — not just the interview room.
