andrew	How can you use them on chat shows to see who having a affair but when it comes to someone who is going to spend time in jail for the wrong reasons gets refused. I like to see what more evidence there is of Bamber who passed the test over 2 years ago.
zooloo	The short answer is that lie detectors simply don't work. Although as most people think they do (Courtesy of US TV shows ) if you can suggest to a jury you're willing to take one may help... that's a big "if"

If there is a plan to use lie detectors on parolees, how do they get around the right to silence? Surely, they cannot force someone to answer questions. the right to silence is being gradually eroded. and if you don't want to talk to your parole officer about a crime..they write down that you are 'in denial'.
Foz	Lie detectors are also used prolifically on the Jeremy Kyle Show which waters down their gravitas even further!
