This is what her babys have to say about it.
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE
Basic Science “The National Academy of Sciences”
Almost a century of research in scientific psychology and physiology provides little basis
for the expectation that a polygraph test could have extremely high accuracy. Although
psychological states often associated with deception (e.g., fear of being judged deceptive) do
tend to affect the physiological responses that the polygraph measures, these same states can
arise in the absence of deception. Moreover, many other psychological and physiological factors .
(e.g., anxiety about being tested) also affect those responses. Such phenomena make polygraph
testing intrinsically susceptible to producing erroneous results. This inherent ambiguity of the
physiological measures used in the polygraph suggest that further investments in improving
polygraph technique and interpretation will bring only modest improvements in accuracy.
Polygraph research has not developed and tested theories of the underlying factors that
produce the observed responses. Factors other than truthfulness that affect the physiological
responses being measured can vary substantially across settings in which polygraph tests are
used. There is little knowledge about how much these factors influence the outcomes of
polygraph tests in field settings. For example, there is evidence suggesting that truthful members
of socially stigmatized groups and truthful examinees who are believed to be guilty or believed
to have a high likelihood of being guilty may show emotional and physiological responses in
polygraph test situations that mimic the responses that are expected of deceptive individuals. The
lack of understanding of the processes that underlie polygraph responses makes it very difficult
to generalize from the results obtained in specific research settings or With particular subject
populations to other settings or populations, or from laboratory research studies to real-world
applications. nearly 90 percent, provided the examiner is properly trained. Show us this we cant find any thing any where even suggest such a this if we read what the so called experts say half way soundsconvincing to us then every one will back slide in the end they will say its junk Sciences ok “testing on parolees at 90 percent accuracy” What we read is theirs real distinction one size fits all. “90 percent accuracy” What fry the 10% fry the 10% we know it’s more than that withsanctioned charging them $300.00 every test every 2 to 3 weeks draining their savings to say the least their different forms of abuse this is just one touchier. Plz Get back to us asap with facts proof on this “testing on parolees at 90 percent accuracy” The programs I know about it disrupts interferes with I could tell you how.Theirs allot of injustice we would like to clean up this is just one. If we call you on this plz corporate. Have fun peace. oh the federal and state government can use polygraph testing for job screening but privet sectors cant lol.

Contrary to the media’s torch, grouping all registered sex offenders as dangerous.
The DOJ in a report states American politicians and Law enforcement has lied to the public.
Ask yourself why would anyone who wants to bring peace and happiness to earth, would wish their personal pain on the rest of the world?
This selfishness is the reason victim’s advocates continue their terrorist style of activity. To share encourage suffering rather than peace is evil.
See how 3 year old children have been placed on the registry and how citizens are held indefinitely after their sentence has been served.
