Individuals…exude expressions.1 Performers can stop giving expressions but cannot stop giving them off.2 Defense attorney Mickey Haller (and protagonist of the fictional series Lincoln Lawyer) has his witness exactly where he wants him.3 Anton Shavar isn't on trial. But Haller wants to insinuate that Shavar committed the murders that Haller's client stands accused of committing. First, he needs to insinuate that Shavar knows how to orchestrate a hit. Haller asks about Shavar's former job: “I have a background in formal intelligence in Israel.” So he was in the Mossad? Shavar replies: “I did not say that.” Haller repeats the question: “Were you in the Mossad? An organization which is known to carry out targeted assassinations?” The prosecution objects. Then a man at the back of the court room stands up. He announces that he is Mr. Shavar's counsel and that “Mr. Shavar's past employment in Israel, whatever it may be, has no bearing on this case. It could jeopardize the national security of one of this country's closest allies.” Haller smirks. Bingo. “It's all right, Your Honor, I'll take that as a yes.” Just by asking, “Were you in the Mossad?” Haller had trapped Shavar. All of his available options became bad. Shavar could tell the truth, but the cost would be too high. Shavar knew that Haller would use this information to smear his good name. Shavar could lie, but the risk would be too high: under oath, to lie is to commit a felony offense. Or he could stay silent. But that too was a bad choice. That Shavar stayed silent revealed that Shavar had good reason to stay silent. And, as Haller's quip “I'll take that as a yes” dramatized, Shavar thereby revealed that he worked for Mossad.4 Courtrooms have elaborate rules to attempt to defuse what I call the problem of loud silence. In Lincoln Lawyer, the judge instructs the jury to disregard Haller's final quip. If the jury does what it should, it will deliberate without taking into account the information that Haller extracted through Shavar's silence. But without formal rules of evidence and deliberation, everyday interactions offer no such kindness. The right sort of question put to us, in the right sort of way, can leave us with only three bad options: to lie; to speak truthfully and reveal what we do not want to reveal; and to stay silent and reveal what we do not want to reveal anyway. I call this the problem of loud silence. The right sort of question, put the right sort of way, can do worse still. A tell-tale pause, a barely perceptible facial expression, a subtle vocal change, an odd word choice: all have the potential to reveal sensitive information. You might ask me a prying question, not because you want to know what I will say but because you want to see how I will react. Face-to-face conversation, then, renders us uniquely informationally vulnerable to each other. We are porous beings, our information often escapes from us against our will, and we can exploit this vulnerability in order to
