Wife passed a polygraph test with a very experienced examiner regarding infidelity during the past four years. After passing, she shared these details with the very experienced examiner about a testing she had undergone the day before-

Per complainant:

Wife suggested polygraph testing regarding the last four years together. An examiner convinced them that he was the 'best examiner in this area' and that he would lower his price from $350 each to $300 each. They arrived at his location to find that it was a share-by-the-hour type rental place. After interview, wife was tested, then husband.

Final results, per examiner: Husband passed, Wife failed. They left.

Husband said he knew the testing was flawed as he lied on the test but was found to be truthful, so he didn't see the wife's test as possibly credible. So she tested the next day with the very experienced examiner.

Interviewing the wife about the testing where she had been told she was lying, the very experienced examiner spotted many errors that had been made, including that he had used compound questions (experienced examiners do not use questions containing 'ands' 'ors' or commas).

Note: other recent past complaints about this examiner include him badmouthing his competitors.
