How many big time leaks and outright spies have they had since instituting the polygraph testing?

That is why you have regular examinations to prevent cheating. Again, its not perfect, but its still reliable enough to warrant further investigation of the subject if the test comes out negative. There are no guarantees in life.

But they DON'T prevent cheating. If anything regular exams help teach the people how to beat the machine. It's way less than not perfect, it's randomized to the point of being basically useless. If the polygraph is so great how did Ames get away with it for so long? Answer is: the polygraph is worthless and should be discarded and never used again by anybody ever.

I wonder if you take too many polygraph test if you become used to them and pass more often??

But back to the confessor, has anybody reported seeing him around the kiddie beauty pageants? My gut feeling is he is a nutcase. Wasn't there a security system at the Ramsey house? Plus, if he is the killer, has he killed again? I would thinkhe would show up on somebody's suspect list somewhere?

parsy, the skeptical.
