Complaint about a California polygraph examiner; yet after all her threats and after all was investigated, it simply was that client was hoping her husband would fail yet he didn't

Complaint about a California polygraph examiner; yet after all her threats and after the matter was investigated, it simply was that client was hoping her husband would fail yet he didn't

Recent past complaints about this examiner: N

Examiner gender: M

Husband suggested he take a polygraph test to show he was a faithful husband.

They arrived at examiner's office after having put much thought and time into the writing of questions they wanted to be used for testing. Note: the actual longest part of a Federal 3-part polygraph test is The Pre-Test, where the questions are developed-- correctly, they took all the time they wanted in writing them and fine-tuning them instead AT HOME.

Husband completed testing, was found to have easily passed.

The next day, wife contacted Examiner and said another examiner badmouthed their choice of Examiner, so she wanted her money back. Examiner offered peer review and other accommodation; wife talked about legal action and online complaints and more if her money wasn't returned.

Peer-review of the charts brought the same NDI opinion.

Nasty threats and texts continued, so a neutral examiner with no connection to this client or test became involved.

It was pointed out to Wife that:
-- if indeed a competitor examiner did bad-mouth Examiner, she needs to get that in writing with his signature. Neutral examiner has filed libel lawsuits against other examiners in the past, the profession learning from his willingness to 'go legal', so such a phony badmouthing to be put in writing would never happen (IF this badmouthing examiner actually exists)
-- chart review by others showed that all guidelines were followed
-- chart review by others has brought the same NDI (No Deception Indicated) scoring
-- her own husband was not tested elsewhere obtaining opposite results
-- her claiming that 4 questions maximum was unfair actually is Federal guidelines maximum
-- a re-test by a neutral examiner at no cost could be arranged
-- her own husband (who was tested) verifies that he was telling the truth
-- she admits there is no proof that Examiner's opinion was wrong
-- in a nutshell, all her anger is because she didn't get fail results
-- her being unhappy with the results does not make them wrong
