He’s a former polygraph examiner for the Oklahoma City police department. From the article:
“And the truth is, the polygraph is no more accurate than the toss of a coin in determining whether a person is telling the truth or lying.”
He is correct, often times the lie detector test is used to play mind games with the subject.
I had a long 3 hour conversation with a retired lie detector operative for a major NJ Police department once. The guy was even on 60 minutes back in his prime.
Anyhow, after listening to him about the test, I feel quite differently about them....
Didn’t realize it was a crime to talk about it though, that is wrong. Simply invalidates the subject, imho.
