Since there has been so much talk throughout this case about people taking a lie detector test, I thought this article I came across was relevant:
http://www.slate.com/id/2112734/
"I am sitting on a pad that sends an electronic signal to a computer every time I move my body. Circling my chest and abdomen are two rubber tubes, the pneumographs, which monitor my breathing. Tiny metal electrodermal plates secured to the index and ring fingers of my right hand with Velcro strips are measuring how much I sweat. A blood-pressure cuff is inflated tight around my left arm. Interrogating me about my moral failings is Darryl DeBow, owner of the Virginia School of Polygraph. I am lying my head off to him, just like—depending on your politics—Bill Clinton or George W. Bush.
I'm also flexing my anus as if I'm in a proctological triathlon—but more on that later."
