Do they always polygraph new cadets and give them strange questions? My brother is an LEO. He was asked if he had ever had sex with an animal before. My coworkers tell me we had an applicant in the past answer yes to that question. After a few hours on 4 chan you believe that is pretty normal for human animal sex. Or atleast it is with girls. |

Do they always polygraph new cadets and give them strange questions? I had 3 different polygraphs from different departments when I thought I wanted to be a cop. All of them had questions like that. Was a police chaplain for Colorado Springs while I was applying. Saw enough that I was relieved when they passed over me at the very end. Patrick |

I think it would be better to be thought evasive or deceptive than to admit to a child sex crime. Too dumb to be a cop. Hard to believe that's possible. |

Polygraphs are more about the psychological and emotional interaction of the examiner and the person being tested.
There's no such thing as a "lie detector" but if people believe that the magic box can see into their minds they can give off tells that then are interpreted (whether correctly or not) against a baseline. It's all very shaky science, but it seems that a shit ton of jobs these days make you take one and they put a lot of credence in the results. |

The weird questions are designed to throw you off. We get applicants with fucked up shit all the time. At least once every hiring cycle we call one into the station and arrest them for their outstanding warrants. Why does this not surprise me? |

They asked him questions like that also.

You would be amazed at what folks will admit to in a background packet. Never done any polygraphs.
I had one guy admit to being married to three women. One in the US, One in Guam and one in Japan. (Yes, he was Navy)

Honesty is the best policy....unless you had illegal sex with a minor when you were an adult. In that case you should probably take that to your grave.

It happens.
Once you figure out the exercise, its a matter of what they can get you to admit. Mine had some inconclusives on it. That was enough for me to figure out that the actual test isn't as foolproof as everyone makes it out to be. It's a psychological game. |

And no, they don't like it when they come back with inconclusives.

I was asked if I ever had sex with an animal during a poly and I said yes, she was pretty fat. I heard audible laughter from behind the mirror. The Trooper again asked have you ever had sex with an animal and it clicked that he was serious, and I said god no! It never occurred to me that would be a serious question, hey I did not grow up ona farm. At the end I asked the Trooper did I pass, and he said in my 20 years of doing this you are the first person to ever beat me on the poly. Who said Troopers do not have a sense of humor. |

Similar to the cop that was trying to become a secret agent for the feds a while back and boasted how sneaky he could be and how he had falsified cases as a cop.
