Yeah she definitely didn't have a polygraph in the past. I had two, one was June, 2002, the other was February 2003. They are crazy stressful and, at least for me, an adrenaline-provoking experience. Both exams took approximately 20 minutes to administer, but felt like an absolute eternity- especially because after each question, they mark answers, which are always Yes/No questions, by pen or mouse-click on the graph readout (which makes you even more scared they're writing something like "this guy is full of it.")

@VidelxSpopovich That happened to me both ways- I had answered truthfully and it "detected deception," as it was told to me. The examiner asked me about it, and marked it as a truthful response (which shows some human analysis is required, at least sometimes). On another question, I answered "No," but had forgotten about an instance and the test showed I answered truthfully, which would seem to indicate if you forget something, you can get away with lying. Granted, this is pretty uncommon to forget, being that you're interrogated quite rigorously first to get written responses and then they administer the test to see if your written responses are truthful.

@VidelxSpopovich Agreed.

@conservativelibertarian To be fair, I passed both my exams. And polygraph examinations are not submissible in court.
