Pro Se Homeowner Newman raises issues as to whether Freddie Mac or PNC actually own the loan. The Judge appears to be quite astute and asks significant questions as to how PNC could be the real party in interest if PNC or National City had already sold the loan to Freddie Mac. The foreclosure attorney almost sounded like she wanted to tell the judge that Freddie Mac merely “leased” the revenue stream… but she doesn’t quite go that far… besides the homeowner never agreed to allow a “lease,” did they?
The 2nd best part is watching the surprise witness. Check out Mr. Arthur – a bit fidgety, yeah? Then who is he waving to at about the 12:13 min. mark? Maybe the Judge caught this…
Body Language
In order to spot a liar, use the person’s usual behavior as a measuring stick to see if they’re stretching the truth.
But when it comes to reading someone, body language also speaks volumes. There are several gestures and mannerisms that can indicate that a person is lying, as long as they differ from the person’s regular actions. They include:
- Rapid eye movement
- Crossed arms
- Constant fidgeting
- Eyes focused to the right (indicates use of the creative side of the brain)
- Eyes focused firmly on an object
- Eye rubbing
- Legs crossed when seated
- Legs not planted firmly on the ground when seated
- Holding an object or gripping ankle, knee or skin of a crossed leg when seated
- Touching face, such as lips, cheeks, chin or nose
- Playing with hair
- Tugging ear
Although we’ve always been taught that lack of eye contact is a dead giveaway that someone is lying, this isn’t necessarily true. As we have been conditioned to look people in the eye to psych them out in business and sports, we have all been raised to be good liars.

Deadly Clear 
What was said ‘off the record’ out of curiosity?
It seems at 12:20 he appears to have just seen someone behind the judge waving ‘hi’ to perhaps a clerk milling around behind the judge . . . because there was already an opportunity to say ‘hi’ before the hearing started if between the judge and PNC. IMO
I wish Newman would have been more assertive and asked to see the folder she was waving around as holding the original – she quickly shut it down though – if stuff from the ‘vault’ regarding this was in fact with them so would perhaps a ledger that indicated who/what engaged in transactions with that note and did that note have endorsements . . .
I am under the impression that the “waving” gestures of Mr. Arthur is merely noting/indicating for the Judge that his employer, PNC, is the Servicer counsel is referring to in her simultaneous argument.
However, this is an excellent video. I have viewed it multiple times and is a great educational tool. I am in litigation with PNC so its helpful to try and understand their logic, or lack thereof.
I am also seeking individuals in the Central Illinois area who may be, or have been in the past, victims of PNC/National City foreclosure proceedings. These individuals may have been subjected to the same violations that I prevailed on. I am hoping to pursue a class-action lawsuit against PNC/National City.

I truly wonder if they investigated the alleged authentic note for being an authentic note?
