It wasn't so long ago that some cretin had gone through the test with a negative result,released and then re-offended. It won't be the last time it happens,so going on your theory about a psychopath passing the test------------it also says that paedophiles too are psychopaths.

I can't think of any reason -given their lack of empathy for their victims- why they shouldn't be.

Well there you are.
But on the other hand,why should/must Jeremy show empathy for something he DIDN'T do ?

Yes, in sex offences, but as a reliable science, it remains highly questionable.

If someone is an expert in any particular field or specialist subject, their opinion is admissible as evidence, whereas an ordinary persons opinion on a specialist topic is not. An 'Expert Witness', as is Mr Mullins, can give evidence stàting his opinion, and if unchallenged, his opinion would have to be treated as factual...

To be specific, his would be considered ' factual opinion'...

Thank you for that, Mike but I'm fully cognisant of what an "Expert Witness" is. It was part of my partner's work in his own field of expertise. He was, on occasions, challenged, but never lost the case he was representing. However, his field was a much more reliable science with no ambiguity.

So is interpretation of polygraph test results...

No, it's totally ambiguous which is why it isn't universally used.

Because for others, empathy comes naturally. It isn't about choosing whether or not to show it.

 There was only one " yes " in answer to the 12 questions that Jeremy was asked. The question being :
Did PC Berry radio in a report of seeing someone in an upstairs window around 4am on the morning of the shootings ? Yes,answered Jeremy.

He was honest on No. 12 at least. Just a pity he had no conscience when it came to killing five members of his family.

The reason that he doesn't " appear to have a conscience " to some is that he didn't do anything to give him a conscience.

No, its not ambiguous, the questions are there for all like minded experts to see, so are the answers, and the various readings from all the equipment...

Wrong, it is a science, and as the test is carried out by an expert, his 'Expert Opinion', is admissible in evidence...

It is so scientific that in 2003, Gary Ridgway admitted he was the Green River Killer, having murdered 49 women in the Seattle area. Ridgway had passed a lie detector test in 1987, while another man - who turned out to be innocent - failed. Ridgway is a psychopath - he passed!

Some psychopaths DO react to lie detectors. They're so set and keen to give the right answers that stress./anxiety and sweat show themselves. This is a FACT.

Not sure where you're getting your info from Lookout but this is just incorrect!

So you're admitting he has no conscience? GOOD!

How many times are we told Jeremy and others such as Adam Lanza,Marty Tankleff,David Bain and others "wouldn't hurt a fly". It's never the loudmouths down the pub I fear;always those who clandestinely harbour a grudge.
