After 30 years on courtroom TV, Judge Judy star Judith Sheindlin says she looks for contradictions and signs of fabrication. She says people who lie usually try to avoid eye contact; women may show redness on the chest, while men may twitch or sweat above the lip.
In a W Magazine interview published Sept. 22, Sheindlin said she begins by assuming what someone says is usually untrue and considers whether the account makes sense.
Sheindlin announced in September that she would retire from on-camera roles when her Prime Video series Judy Justice ends in October. The show began in November 2021 and has had four seasons; Judge Judy ran for 25 seasons, from 1996 to 2021.
