This isn't a musical story to begin with...

I am just shocked as I thought that LIE DETECTORS were more or less infallible.

So my one buddy is having problems with his wife.
I won't go into detail, just to say that he thinks she has been unfaithful.

So he took her to a LIE DETECTOR setup yesterday.

So I was waiting around the house as we had plans to go out...
I never heard from him. I went out anyway and thought nothing of it.

Well I get an email this am. Evidently it went badly for her, I think she failed every question short of what her name is.

The worst part about it is he asked her a short list of whom she slept with (like Jerry Springer) and yep, you guessed it, I am on the list.

Well turns out that the lie detector guy came up with the idea that I had slept with this woman 5-7 times.

I state unequivocally that I never did any such thing. Her husband, my ex-friend is convinced I did.

I always thought that the lie detector test was pretty good about detecting truths/lies. Now I know better, those tests are not 100%.

Be forewarned, I have made many mistakes before but this wasn't one of them and I now know that the lie detector test is only as good as the equipment and the administrator running it.

I>E> If some jackass is running it, you might be accused of shooting the pope or anything else on the table.

I wish I had been tested, because I know I would have passed with flying colors but he can go f**k himself if he thinks I am throwing down 400$ just to exonerate me from his mire of adultery.

I feel bad for him but when he finds out that I didn't do it, he'll feel worse.

Get a divorce and grow the f**k up. I feel like I am to be burned at the stake and it's def. a witch hunt..I just hope everyone forgot their matches.

Dont feel bad Capt, there is this gal and her husband that have been coming to see my band for 25 years, and too this day my ex thinks I slept with her.

That sux dude, is all I can say

Aint no piece of ass worth a good friend in my world!

They are far from 100% Perhaps she'd wanted to sleep with you and the question elicited an emotional response from her. Maybe she's f**k you plenty of times in her head. Your ex-friend sounds overly emotional, paranoid and just plain stupid. Perhaps she's never slept around on him at all. I bet he's f**k around on her though. Most men I've come across who are overly possessive and jealous have all screwed around on their mates. I guess they're afraid of getting karmic payback.

Scott,

1) Get the guy who ran the test to put down the results in writing and then obtain a copy.
2) Document any and all damage that you experience as a result of that test and accusation.
3) Present the copy of the test results, and your documentation to an attorney... and discuss the option to sue the guy (And the woman) for defamation of character.

No, he may be a jackass, but I am not going to make his pain worse.

I know what he feels inside. I told him if anyone did it to me, I'd shoot them no questions asked. (Crime of passion all the way)(ya get a lighter sentence)

I surmise what happened is that he bullied her over and over again, till she just told him anything he wanted to hear after that pathetic lie detector test outed her cheating and lying ways.

And get this, it gets worse yet...

He sent me email that he's going to shoot my dog, burn down my house and shoot me too, etc.

I am a little upset about this, right?

I go to the local police to ask for advice and they turned it on me.
The cop said that if I didn't want to turn in the emails so they could go arrest him, "it wasn't a police matter".

I just wanted to document it.

FURTHERMORE, the one cop asked a slew of irrelevant but really annoying questions like;

1) Are you on psychotropic drugs? I laughed and told him no.

Weird thing is that I advertised for band members on our local CRAIGSLIST and used a similar terminology. I.e. I said I was looking for musicians with "psychotropic influences".

2) Have I ever been arrested and for what..
3) Have I ever been an inmate of an insane asylum
4) Questions about how long they had been married and how old was their child. Then he's telling me that my dates don't add up if they had been married for 10 years and had a 5 year old child.

I was like, "not everyone that gets married is pregnant at the time of marriage, you know".

I told him that I wasn't even friends with his wife, as she lent me a Stephen King novel and asked me to do some inane chore I didn't want to do for her, so I said no. She then took the book back before I could turn page 1. (Yep, she's a bitch)

I asked him if he ever had a friend that he wasn't really 100% buddies with his wife, he told me NO. (I was like, lie detector please on that last question)

In short, he turned it around on me so that I felt like the onus was on me and he felt like I slept with her !!!!

I tell you that our local cops are baaad news.

If I came on the scene and that guy was on fire, I wouldn't even piss on him to put him out.

My buddy? Well, he's been on my sh*t list for a little bit now because he's a bit on the "fair-weather friend" side of things. Now he's toast as i don't have the time or inclination to coax him back into the light.

And when I went to the State Police, they were pretty good about it.
The one chap let me document it. He then asked me what I wanted to do about it. I said "nothing". I told him if I or the house suddenly catches fire or the dog gets KIA'd, I just wanted it on record and that was it.


You know, they say bad things happen in 3's, right?

1) Les went belly up on me. (That was a big shot to the balls)

2) This thing with my ex-friend (almost as bad, but not )

3) The thing with the cop was so bad, I don't think I'll ever bother them again for any reason. (oh you robbed a bank, I didn't see a thing and still not seeing anything, will never see anything again)

and then

4) I go to the local dog park, like I always do because my dog loves it .
This guy I know who has a really creepy dog shows up and gets loud with me. Even worse yet, the 4 people there and I can smell the booze on his breath. Any other time, I would have slapped the drunk off of him and set him straight but because of all this, I have to smell the cheap whiskey on his breath and listen to his sh*t, even as I resolve to leave to avoid beating the fluids out of his body.

Can people tell when you are up against the wall? I think they can.

One of my friends from the dog park asked me on the way out, why I didn't kick his stupid ass. I just calmly said, "because jail is for losers".

When the cops id you as a musician, you are in trouble.
When the local cretin/drunk/douchebag is goading you on, be careful, it's a setup.

If I end up dead or on a police blotter, don't believe the TMZ version. You just got the truth straight from the would be psychotropic troll's mouth.

Is it too late to go Country and/or Western? lol

It all feels like a bad video and yet, I can't stop watching it..
(Gee, I hope I don't char. Black is not my favorite color(s))

Prayers please, it's bothering me. If you pray, please say something small if you would. Thank you.

Prayers given, one of those lose lose situations. Holy crap man. Good luck Scott. If it were me I know what I would do,,,, but your middle name aint trouble, so let's keep you out of trouble.

I'm gonna STFU now. just suuks Scott.

Glenny.

If he took her to a polygraph and sat there while she was questioned, of course it went badly for her. She would be nervous about everything except for "what is 2 + 2" ?

Any examiner would know that a situation like that would f**k a test all to hell.

If he didnt sit there for the questions, I dont think the facts of that session are available to a third party - in which case she would have had to tell him that she failed that question. I could be wrong...

Well Mr Scott you've already been
accussed of it.... why not.....
Don't make a liar of the poor woman,
I can feel her pain.

She is a liar, that's the worst part.

She is all jammed up in 30 or so lies and now it's all mixed up in her liar head.

All I had to be to get sucked into the stream of sh*t was to be standing on the edge.

Worst is, I think he thinks that everyone near him had a turn on his wife.

(hide the guns and ammo)

Even worse the woman is not comely, nor attractive in any conceivable manner I can think of.

I consider her only a step above "farm animal".

Stupid, ugly and mean is a shitty way for anything to go through life, let alone a woman.

A step above farm animal

Farm animals need love too

A jealous boyfriend and a hosebeast = bullshit. I had my drama last summer with a similiar situation. Judging by this report, I think its safe to say that this sorry broad used your name among a few others to try to make this guy jealous...and she knew it would work. And as for cops, well, I don't think I would call them if I got a knife stuck in me. The boys in blue love to find a way to suspect anyone that doesen't fit their upper-middle-class standards of appearance or status.

So sorry to hear this, Scott. Sounds like you walked into a minefield full of assholes. It happens, but I don't know why or how, its just something I come across from time to time myself.

Your "buddy" and his woman are loco as sh*t...getting a lie detector in the mix to try to get some truth. Your better off with 0 friends than friends like those.

Don't get me started on drunks at dogparks...

Yeah it's sad he's been around for a LONG time..

If it had to go south, it would have been nice for another reason to lose the friendship.

And you got me rolling with the drunks at the dog park line.. ty..lol

I don't remember who first said this, but...

"Your suspicions of others are often a reflection of your own self-knowledge."

Just sayin'...
