Should I take a lie detector test to prove my innocence with regard to wrongful accusation of indecent exposure to a child? 

Jeralyn Elise Merritt
Answered by attorney Jeralyn Elise Merritt (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Jeralyn E. Merritt
My advice is no, you should not. If you are a suspect in a criminal investigation, you should remain silent until you have consulted with an attorney. Many innocent suspects in criminal investigations mistakenly agree to take a lie detector test believing that the test is very accurate and will clear them of wrongdoing. This is not the case. Passing a polygraph test is not a guarantee that you will no longer be under suspicion for the crime. On the other hand, should you fail the test, even though your failure will not be admissible in court, it could prejudice you substantially in the eyes of law enforcement and the prosecutor. Most state courts, including those in Texas, where you live, do not allow polygraph evidence to be admitted for any purpose. This is because from a scientific standpoint, the polygraph has not been shown to be sufficiently reliable. While some studies conclude the test is accurate, others show that it is no more reliable than the toss of a coin. Approximately 20 states allow polygraph evidence to be admitted if certain conditions are met. The United States Supreme Court has considered the issue of whether an automatic rule against admission of polygraph evidence violates a defendant\'s Fifth or Sixth Amendment rights to present a defense and decided that it does not because the test is not sufficiently reliable. Instead of counting on a polygraph to clear you, I suggest you retain the services of an experienced criminal defense attorney in your area who can advise you of the best way to refute the accusation against you.

Can a Child Protective Services determination of abuse trigger a criminal charge?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
Trigger a criminal charge? Absolutely. I'd be surprised if it didn't. When threatened or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a test, search or confession be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? A little free advice: exercise the 5th Amendment right to SHUT UP and do NOT talk to police or anyone about the case except with and through an attorney. Raise all appropriate defenses with whatever witnesses, evidence and sympathies are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or for trial. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, program, or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate.
