Today, Thursday, the senior appointments committee will discuss the result of a polygraph test conducted by Moshe (Chiko) Edri, the appointed police commissioner. According to estimates published in Hahadashot , Edri successfully passed the polygraph examination and the results will be transferred to the Goldberg Committee, which will convene for the crucial discussion. If Edri's appointment is approved today, then Minister of Public Security Gilad Erdan will bring his appointment on Sunday morning to the cabinet for approval. Edri will then immediately be promoted to the rank of chief superintendent. It is possible that outgoing police commissioner Ronnie Alsheikh, who is due to leave on Sunday, will be asked to help out for a few days to ease the transition.

Correction: After our story was published, Ruptly.tv contacted Polygraph.info via email, saying the TV media outlet “acquired and published without editing as received on November 25” a short version of the ramming video. Ruptly also said, it published the full version, “as soon as (Ruptly.tv) were able to obtain” it. Ruptly.tv is correct that the original fact check did not note the full video was published the next day, November 26. (Click here to watch it). However, we have confirmed the full version of the video was available on Sunday, November 24, the day before Ruply.tv published the abridged video. Several Russian state-owned TV channels broadcasted the full version of the video on November 25. That includes the state TV channel Rossiya-24 , with its flagship news show Vesti. We have no means to independently confirm that Ruptly.tv did not edit the first, shorter version, of the video, which is posted on its website and also put out on social media – the video we featur...

When someone says “polygraph,” typically people think of an adult male with a strange black cord wrapped around his chest, and what looks like a blood pressure monitor clipped to his finger. He is answering yes or no questions for some guy staring at a beeping machine in a “Law & Order” style interrogation room. What people do not think of is a seven-year-old child sitting in that chair being asked the same questions. However, polygraph testing juvenile offenders is a common treatment method used in juvenile correction centers all over the United States. In 2001, a survey of 101 law enforcement polygraph examiners found that 74% of examiners had tested at least one juvenile offender under the age of 16. The youngest child reportedly tested was seven years of age . In 2017, Colorado Division of Criminal Justice reported that 361 juvenile sex offenders were required to take periodic polygraph tests as a part of their probation requirements in Colorado state alone. A polygrap...

A Velma man who violated probation on multiple counts has a warrant out for his arrest regarding second degree rape charges pressed in 2016. According to court documents, Dathan Colby Speight, who was 18-years-old at the time of the crimes committed in 2016, was convicted of rape in the second degree and second degree rape by instrumentation for violating two girls who were 15-years-old at the time. According to police reports, at about 5:20 p.m. May 22, 2016, task force agents were contacted by Velma Police asking to assist in the investigation of the rape of a minor.

SANTA FE – A 72-year-old man found guilty last year of molesting two boys at the Fort Marcy Recreational Complex has had his convictions overturned, and a judge on Tuesday ordered that he can be released from jail. Court records indicate that District Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer last month overturned the May 2017 convictions at trial of Eric Knee on two counts of criminal sexual contact of a minor under age 13. She granted a defense motion for a new, third trial based on new evidence. An initial prosecution of Knee ended in a mistrial. ADVERTISEMENT Skip On Tuesday, Marlowe Sommer rejected a prosecution request that Knee remain in jail, where he’s been held for 18 months, pending a third trial. His lawyers filed a motion for a new trial more than a year ago. Knee is accused of sexually assaulting two boys age 11 and 12 in the locker/shower room at Fort Marcy in December 2015. Knee’s attorney, Dan Cron, said the new evidence includes a testimony from an eyewitness present during t...

As police focused on killer Chris Watts after his pregnant wife and two young daughters disappeared and were found murdered in August, the woman with whom he was having an affair wondered if she’d be publicly shamed, conducting internet searches about the mistress of another infamous killer. “Did people hate Amber Frey ?” Watts’ mistress, Nichol Kessinger , typed into an Internet search, invoking the name of the woman who was having an affair with infamous killer  Scott Peterson , who  murdered his wife, Laci, and their unborn child in 2002.

During a six-hour interview with agents from FBI and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, Chris Watts finally confessed to murdering his wife — but not before he failed a polygraph test and laughing off a question about all the ways it’s possible to make a person disappear, according to newly released investigative documents in the Watts family murder case that have been obtained by PEOPLE. After continuing to claim he knew nothing about where his wife and daughters were located, Watts was asked by investigators on Aug. 15 to come up with all the ways he could think of to cause someone’s disappearance, the docs claim.

Watts, 33, then “giggled,” adding that the question was hard to answer as he was not responsible for the disappearance of Shan’ann Watts , his 34-year-old pregnant wife of nearly six years. ...
