1. Proof of Innocence Case for Couple
Location: Surrey
Yesterday we had a very common case for a couple from Surrey who visited our Kent offices. Throughout the relationship arguments had been started and the usual accusations of sleeping with someone else was directed at the person we were due to test.
Unfortunately in this case the person we tested broke down mid argument and admitted to something they didn’t do. Once you say something like this it’s very hard to then take it back and ultimately prove you didn’t cheat on your partner.
Fortunately this lady turned to Lie Detectors UK to take a lie detector test to prove to her partner she had been faithful to him.
On arrival at our head office we discuss the case both in full and work on three suitable questions based on fact, in the pre test we discuss how the polygraph works, including a full walk through of the sensors we use as well as a lot more.
The testing stage comprises four tests, we repeat questions multiple times and take an average for the results which are given on the day both verbally and in report format. An average lie detector test will last two hours. An example of a popular question we use is ‘Since being in a relationship besides your partner have you engaged in sexual intercourse with anyone else?’.
In this particular lie detector test with the couple from Surrey the client we tested was telling the truth and we were pleased to be able to help her prove this to her partner and get their relationship back on track. Its very easy in an argument to say things we do not mean purely to hurt someone or to gain a reaction, in this case what was said in anger caused a huge rift with no other way to prove it wasn’t true but to take a lie detector test.

Location: Maidstone
A Kent school girl from Maidstone, Alexandra McDonald where Lie Detectors UK has their head office recently took a Test to prove she hadn’t left peanuts in a classroom at Rochester Grammar School where a teacher who was allergic to nuts worked.
The girl had been excluded from school for twenty days after the school claimed what may have been a prank could have caused serious injury or even death. The school girl had been excluded on probability as she and a friend had been seen giggling in a corridor adjacent to the classroom.
Her father Peter commissioned the lie detector test so she could prove her innocence, We are pleased Alexandra passed her Lie Detector Test and now is able to prove her innocence and have the school investigate this case more thoroughly as she is just about to start her mock A Level exams and at present will have to sit these in a neighbouring school.

Louis’s Suggestion:
As their fights became worse due to lockdown, it started affecting their kids, especially Aden. He became pretty quiet ever since he saw them fighting and shouting at each other.

His friend Thomas suggested him to take the test as it helped him with the same problem.
Lie Detector Test:
When Louis gave the suggestions, Jennifer was quite ecstatic about it. She wanted to put an end to all the fights and start the New Year with truth and trust. They booked a lie detector test with us. We went to their house to conduct the test. We asked five questions to Louis. These questions were prepared by Jennifer. She was present while we took the test.
Test Results:
We asked a total of three relevant questions to Louis for accuracy, and he answered all the questions truthfully. As per the test results, Louis wasn’t cheating on Jennifer. He has been a loyal husband for ten years.

3. A Theft Case in Birmingham (Both Suspects Were Innocent)
Location: Birmingham
This is a summary of a recent case, for a client based in Birmingham who owned a cleaning company who used the lie detector to maintain their good reputation.
Our client is a successful cleaning company who employs six full time members of staff and whose main work is office cleaning. The majority of their work has come from reputation and word of mouth rather than advertising.
The owner contacted Lie Detectors UK following the theft of petty cash from an office they are contracted to clean daily. The amount of cash was £300 and had been taken from a open cash box in a drawer, the theft had been reported to the Police but due to its nature, no investigation would be taking place.
Whilst no finger had been pointed at our client’s company he thought it good procedure and due diligence to test his staff to maintain the company’s reputation as its normal for the cleaners to get the blame in his industry.
The Examination Day
There were only two staff to test given they clean these offices, they were both happy to submit to a lie detector test in Birmingham and prove their innocence however were notably very nervous and anxious, this is totally normal for anyone we would test and has no impact on the results.
We explain we are there to verify they are telling the truth. Once we had pretested each individual to ensure that they could be tested we proceeded to run multiple charts consisting of three relevant questions for the situation, ensuring the questions were specific to the incident to avoid any false positive results and to keep our results as accurate as possible.
The Conclusion
Both cleaners passed their tests, results were delivered verbally and with a full report to the business owner. He was able to take our reports to his client to clear his employees from any suspicion.
In his words this was money well spent as any suspicion could cause damage to his businesses reputation and loose a significant amount of business. It also sends a message to employees who would ever be in a situation where they could potentially do something to harm the company they work for to think twice.

However, some months previously she had said she was leaving the base to remain with her mum. Rosie had actually stated her mum was sick as well as she required to look after her. She additionally missed her buddies and being at home was making her depressed. Chris had unwillingly agreed with her as well as said he would certainly contact us as soon as he was home.
Extramarital relations rumours
When Chris obtained home he called Cheryl, Rosie’s mom, and she said her little girl had actually been dealing with her up till the previous week. She said that Rosie had actually been staying in a hotel nearby and would not be travelling with Chris any longer. Chris tried to connect with Rosie yet could not reach her. He spoke with Cheryl once again as well as she told him Rosie wanted absolutely nothing to do with him. His buddy, Paul, had actually informed Rosie that Chris had been seeing somebody else.
Paul had constantly had a thing for Rosie and this was just the suggestion of the iceberg. He had made these incorrect claims before and he had even made passes at Rosie when Chris was away. It had caused a finishing tirade of arguments in between the two of them and also Rosie had plainly had enough. Cheryl wouldn’t inform Chris where his other half was and also he simply really did not recognize where to begin.
Crowborough Examination
Over a couple of beers he was talking to an old close friend that suggested scheduling a Crowborough lie detector examination. Chris thought this was a fantastic suggestion. He can show none of what Paul claimed was true, not just his newest agenda of hate.
Chris scheduled an examination online and because of a cancellation he had the ability to see our inspector very promptly.

He wanted the complete record before he approached his mum in regulation with it.
When the comprehensive test results record showed up, they verified that he was completely pardoned. There had been no cheating on his component which naturally, he understood. He took his Crowborough lie detector examination results over to Cheryl who accepted to pass them on to Rosie.
Within hours Rosie was on the phone, apologising for believing Paul and also allowing him right into her life.
