This test continued for 8 hours in 3 different sessions to know her hidden thoughts.  

  

The lady said, “All of a sudden one of the polygraphers said, turn on the light so that I can see. I was astonished to see how scary and unpredictable the whole process was. Last year, almost seventy three thousand American have undergone this polygraph test to get on to the federal government jobs.
