RE: Polygraph Alternatives: Could Reaction Time Catch a Liar?

in #science6 years ago

Why would you want to use a lie detector of any kind in a criminal case anyway? Defendants can't be forced to take a polygraph nor are they permissible in court in most states. I don't get it. Why bother?

Sort:  

Some countries in Europe allow the polygraph in the court. Of course, your point is valid. Nobody could be tested by force.
