“She passed a lie detector test”

We don’t know that.

Her attorney claims that she supposedly passed an unknown test given by an unknown person.

Her attorney has refused to provide ANY information about the supposed test. She refuses to say what questions were asked, what the responses were, which of her replies were said to be truthful what were the machine sttings and readings or who administered the test.

Polygraph tests are never certain proof. At best they are only statistically probable if administered correctly.

Without showing the actual results and knowing the circumstances, a lie detector test means absolutely nothing.

I seriously doubt she actually took a real lie detector test. I think the lawyer is at best being deceitful and more likely simply lying.

I have read some speculation that the wording chosen to report the results of the polygraph test is ambiguous.

Basically, the reporting says that she was found to be truthful when she was asked if such and such was an accurate summary of what she had previously said during the test.

Polygraph tests are inadmissible in court. We have no idea of the reliability of this one. But it is the one and only piece of evidence outside of he said/she said. I never said it was a particularly good piece of evidence, only that it is something that indicates she isn’t intentionally lying. Being wrong isn’t the same thing as lying. I think she is wrong.
