FACE OF EVIL Chilling moment Grindr serial killer Stephen Port exposed guilt at murdering four men with seven tell-tale signs
THIS is the chilling moment Grindr serial killer Stephen Port exposed his guilt at murdering four men with seven tell-tale signs.
The monster raped and killed Anthony Walgate, 23, Gabriel Kovari, 22, Daniel Whitworth and Jack Taylor, 25, after administering date rape drug GBH.
He then dumped their bodies near his home in Barking, East London, between 2014 and 2015.
Port was given a whole life sentence in 2016 for murder and the rape of three other men he drugged.
A new documentary has now revealed the giveaway signs Port exhibited that exposed his guilt over the horror.
The Grindr Killer Scandal: A Faking It Special explores how the killer's evil web of lies unravelled as he was questioned over Jack's death.
Body language expert Dr Cliff Lansley said Port showed high levels of anxiety when asked by officers why he had been searching for "boy", "drugged" and "raped" as the 25-year-old lay dying.
The monster attempted to worm his way out of the grilling by claiming he was "just generally looking for just general porn".
But Dr Lansley explains: "Just look to his left arm, you can see the leg’s up and down, so this is high anxiety time.
"We’ve got a hand clamp underneath the table, the minimiser of the word ‘just’ and a double-sided hand shrug.”The expert also says Port's use of the word "just" is important as it's an attempt to claim the searches he carried out were nothing.
But the show reveals how a shrug the killer gives highlights how little confidence he has in the statement
Dr Lansley identifies a total of seven giveaway signs that Port is guilty - including the shrug and six micro head shakes that contradict the claims.
The expert adds: "So with only seven seconds, from only five words - ‘just searching for random videos’ - we’ve got seven indicators of deception.
"This is definitely a lie.”
Later in the interview, Port is questioned about Daniel's death after he was discovered in a churchyard just 400 yards away from the killer's flat.
He can be seen growing increasingly uncomfortable when presented with a map of where the body was found and his home address.
Dr Lansley says: "We’re already getting a reaction from Port. Now this is getting near the knuckle now…if you look down here at the trousers, you can see that vibration.
"We call this a psychogenic tremor, and this tremor is trying to release the pent-up energy in the large muscles of the legs that’s been created by the spike of anxiety by being presented with a picture of the crime scene, the church yard around the abbey”.
Port is also asked about a so-called suicide note found on Daniel's body that implicated himself in fellow victim Gabriel's murder.
The expert says the psychogenic tremor continues as Port moves around 30cm back from the table to distance himself from the "dirty evidence".
Port carried out the grisly killing spree between 2014 and 2015 by targeting his victims on dating apps.
Basic errors made by the police meant he was able to carry out the murders and drug and sexually assault more than a dozen other men.
It took over a year for officers to finally link the deaths of all four men and arrest Port on suspicion of murder.
The development only came when grieving families of the victims were forced to carry out their own investigations.
An inquest previously found that "fundamental failures" by the police were likely to have contributed to the deaths of three of the men.
Currently, eight Met officers are under investigation for gross misconduct.
Forensic psychologist Kerry Daynes tells the show: "If I was a family member of any of these boys, I would be absolutely livid.
"I would be devastated, because these are deaths that could have been prevented. And there’s nothing more painful than knowing that lives could have been saved, and they weren’t.”
