Forensic Handwriting Analysis identifies alarming personality traits in Times Square bomb suspect Faisal Shahzad.

Using the latest forensic handwriting analysis techniques handwriting expert Bart Baggett, a forensic document examiner, has suggested that Faisal Shahzad's handwriting on a 2004 condo sale agreement unmasks him as a hostile, self-destructive, arrogant man, an expert said Wednesday.

"He's angry at everybody and he's lashing out at the world," says expert Bart Baggett, a forensic document examiner and author of "Handwriting Analysis 101."

Baggett identified three "ticks" - tiny marks where the pen has dragged - that indicate aggression and hatred: at the top of the F, the bottom of the S and the end of the L in Faisal.

The one on the F is particularly telling because Shahzad's handwriting has large "upper zones" that suggest an interest in philosophical ideals, religion and analysis, Baggett said. The presence of the tick there means Shahzad is angry at religion and ideology, he said.

Shahzad also signed only his first name, indicating pride. The excessive pen pressure he used shows determination, Baggett said. And that bizarre curlicue over his "I"?

"It shows a desire to be different and not wanting to conform," Baggett said.

The enquire into the Times Square Bombing Continues.
