That means making personal observations and/or consulting various witnesses and authorities.

Now convenience and reliability are issues. Also maybe intelligibility.

How to tell if someone is lying: do they have something to gain by lying? Are they a politician? Are they a celebrity? Do they have a history of lying?

The more yes answers to the above, the more likely the person is lying to you.
