| Jimmy Fallon Gives Mark Ruffalo an Avengers-Related Lie Detector Test - Gizmodo Posted: 16 Mar 2019 10:30 AM PDT   Mark Ruffalo's propensity for spoilers is, at this point, beyond a running gag, even though, so far as we know, he's been on his best behavior regarding Avengers: Endgame. And while that joke may be losing its luster, this one still got a few laughs out of me. In his most recent appearance on The Tonight Show, Mark Ruffalo was subjected to a lie detector test by Jimmy Fallon, wired into the machine like an old-timey murder suspect. Then, of course, Fallon asked him about the Avengers movie, and Ruffalo, noticeably incredibly nervous, does his best not to give anything away. This, then, is the apotheosis of spoiler culture: a man on national television, tied to a lie detector, trying to keep secrets he knows he can't hold in. It's almost bleak, until it's very funny. Watch to learn what suggestions about the movie probably aren't true (but do make Mark Ruffalo very nervous), and to find out which Avenger Mark Ruffalo thinks is prettier than him. Avengers: Endgame hits theaters April 26, 2019. For more, make sure you're following us on our new Instagram @io9dotcom. Advertisement  |
| Bill to alter CO polygraph test requirements stalls in Md. Senate - CorrectionsOne Posted: 08 Mar 2019 11:18 AM PST  By CorrectionsOne Staff ANNAPOLIS, Md. — A bill that would loosen polygraph test requirements for correctional officer recruits has stalled in the Maryland Senate as debate continues on the exact modifications intended to increase hiring. Some lawmakers have expressed concerns about the proposed bill which would remove the lie-detector test as a requirement to being hired as a CO. It would, however, allow officials to still require the test or an in-depth background check, reports The Herald Mail. While the bill made it through committee hearings, one member asked to postpone the vote, expressing concerns with the language. Maryland currently has a 20 percent vacancy rate among COs. The proposed bill is aimed at reducing that number. The Herald Mail reports that union leaders have cited the polygraph test as "unreliable" and part of the problem in attempting to hire. "They have been a barrier instead of a screen," said Sue Esty, legislative director for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the union that represents Maryland's correctional officers. The state amended CO hiring requirements to include the polygraph test after a series of scandals at the Baltimore City Detention Center.  |
| Polygraph test uncovers reported sexual assaults - 1011now Posted: 21 Feb 2019 12:00 AM PST  10/11 NOW is learning more about why a Seward County sheriff's deputy was arrested for sexual assault. A probable cause affidavit filed in Johnson County Court show all of this came out during Nicholas Bridgmon's pre-employment polygraph test in November as he was applying to the Nebraska State Patrol. The affidavit said, "It is of particular importance to note that the NSP Waiver states that the person signing it acknowledges that, 'if information is revealed concerning any criminal violation, this information will be reported to the law enforcement agency and the local prosecutor of the jurisdiction where the criminal violation occurred.'" Bridgmon freely signed the waiver. Wednesday, Bridgmon was charged in Johnson County Court with first degree sexual assault. A judge set his bond at $50,000. As of Wednesday night, he was in jail and had not posted that bond. The affidavit said there are five victims of sexual assault. Adding Bridgmon told the person giving the polygraph test, "he had engaged in sexual intercourse with two girls that he implied may have been under the legal age of consent." At the time he was 19. Bridgmon said in the affidavit some of this would happen "with women who were either 'heavy sleepers' or 'passed out' due to alcohol consumption." The document also said of the five victims, two may have been underage, while two more were "either without their consent, or in some cases, without their knowledge.'" One incident detailed in the affidavit happened in July of 2007, when the victim was 17 years old and Bridgmon was 19. She told investigators he first sexually assaulted her in his car. Later he drove to a location outside of Cook, Nebraska where he forcefully raped her outside his car. Two of the victims friends told investigators the victim shared details of what happened to her in a year or two after the sexual assault. The Seward County Sheriff's Office put Bridgmon was placed on administrative leave. He's served as a deputy with the office since November 2015. The sheriff's office said there was no reason to believe any misconduct occurred while he was employed within Seward County.  |
