The troubling indicators suggest that Emmanuel Haro’s mother possibly invented the story of her son’s kidnapping, which an expert criticizes as “the worst example of acting.”

Jake Haro and Rebecca Haro face charges of murder with malice and filing a false police report from the Riverside County District Attorney’s Office, reporting the possibility that young Emmanuel may have passed away as early as August 5.

Rebecca Haro gave an inconsistent and emotional interview to a local news station, claiming her 7-month-old son had been taken from the back of her car in a sporting goods store parking lot on August 14.

During the interview with KTLA, Rebecca, aged 41, appeared breathless and often avoided eye contact as she spoke, sitting next to her husband, Jake, pleading for the safe return of their child.

The primary issue with Rebecca and Jake’s statements was their lack of emotional response, surprising for parents claiming their child was kidnapped by a stranger.

‘NOTHING IS RIGHT’

Traci Brown, a renowned body language expert, slammed the parents’ public display as the “worst example of acting I have ever seen.”

“The biggest thing is she’s crying and she’s gasping, except there’s no tears,” Brown said.

“There’s no glassy eyes, there’s no red eyes, there’s no wiping tears away, like she’s not even trying.

“She didn’t have a Kleenex, she didn’t have a runny nose, nothing. There’s no tears. This is completely fake.

“The gasping isn’t genuine because when you gasp, it causes a spasm, and you can’t speak while you’re crying hard; the gasp is a quick inhalation to catch breath.”

“It’s like an abdominal spasm. What she’s doing is the breath out, so nothing is right about this.”

‘NO SIGNS OF STRESS’

Brown, the author of the book How to Detect Lies, Fraud and Identity Theft: Field Guide, underscored how Rebecca’s forehead showed no signs of tension.

“There’s no stress lines in her forehead or her eyebrows,” she added.

“So if you think about it, the forehead is like the billboard and the lines of the forehead and the eyebrows are like writing on the billboard.

“So, there’s no writing on the billboard, nothing. There’s no stress.”

SUSPECT ACTIONS

When little Emmanuel first went missing, Rebecca told San Bernardino police that an unknown man approached her from behind and said, “Hola,” before knocking her unconscious.

Rebecca told investigators she was knocked out so fast she never saw the man’s face.

In her interviews with reporters and her public outings, Rebecca was seen sporting a noticeable bruise under her right eye.

However, Brown said Rebecca’s bruise and her situation do not match.

“The bruise doesn’t match the situation because she described that she did not turn to look at the person,” Brown added.

“So, why does she have a bruise that would come from the front?

“Let’s talk about what happens when you’ve been knocked out and you wake up in a parking lot, the first thing you do is not to run in and ask someone if they’ve seen a kid.

“The first thing that you do is call 911. But parents who are distressed do not wait to call 911.”

The disappearance of Emmanuel Haro

SAN Bernardino police are probing the disappearance of missing baby Emmanuel Haro. The U.S. Sun breaks down the timeline surrounding his disappearance.

August 14: Emmanuel’s mom, Rebecca, reports him missing. She claimed she was attacked near a Big 5 Sporting Goods store in Yucaipa.

August 15: San Bernardino cops issue a statement, saying the search for Emmanuel is ongoing. They reveal that he has not been found.

August 16: Cops say they cannot rule out foul play.

August 17: Police visit the Haro family home.

August 18: Police say they have conducted extensive searches in the Yucaipa and Cabazon areas. They also reveal that a large amount of surveillance footage has been reviewed. 

August 19: San Bernardino cops probe an alleged sighting of Emmanuel. Police have also seized a car belonging to Emmanuel’s dad, Jake.

August 20: Cops say Emmanuel still hasn’t been found. Police also receive they are probing a fire that broke out near the Haro family home.

August 21: One week since Emmanuel disappeared.

August 22: Jake Haro and Rebecca Haro are arrested and charged with murder. Police continue to search for little Emmanuel.

August 26: Jake and Rebecca Haro are expected to be arraigned.

Brown continued, “In fake child disappearance interviews, like what we see here, the media always asks, ‘What do you have to say to the person who did this?’

“They always say that and parents who are involved in a missing kid case like this, they never say that they called 911 first, but that’s what everyone would do.

“So here’s the deal, the dad is also doing all of the same signs, and both of them talk about baby Emanuel in past tense and that’s a huge key right there.

“These two they had it coming. I mean, this is the worst I’ve ever seen, it’s awful.”

Rebecca and Jake were arrested on Friday and charged with murder after investigators determined no abduction occurred in San Bernardino.

A dramatic video showed heavily armed officers hauling away the parents in handcuffs from their home in Cabazon, California.

Rebecca and Jake are being held on $1 million bond each and will be arraigned on September 4.

Neither Rebecca or Jake spoke in the courtroom and are now being represented by public defenders.

Jake wore a red jail jumpsuit, while Rebecca was in a blue inmate uniform.

Investigators are still searching for Emmanuel, who they believe is likely deceased.
