McClatchy reports that in the course of the investigation, which is called <a title=\"Blog posts tagged &quot;Operation Lie Busters&quot;\" href=\"https:\/\/antipolygraph.org\/blog\/tag\/operation-lie-busters\/\">&#8220;Operation Lie Busters,&#8221;<\/a> [i]nvestigators confiscated business records from the two men, which included the names of as many as 5,000 people who\u2019d sought polygraph-beating advice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dixon has pleaded guilty to unspecified charges that remain under seal and faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison, though prosecutors are seeking a two-year sentence. Williams is not reported to have been charged with any crime, and he &#8220;declined to comment other than to say he&#8217;s done nothing wrong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>AntiPolygraph.org co-founder George Maschke may also have been targeted by an attempted sting. McClatchy reports:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>George Maschke, a former Army Reserve intelligence officer who\u2019s a translator and runs a website that\u2019s critical of polygraph testing, said he also suspected he\u2019d been targeted although he\u2019d done nothing illegal.<\/p>\n<p>In May, the translator received an unsolicited email in Persian from someone purporting to be \u201ca member of an Islamic group that seeks to restore freedom to Iraq.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause the federal police are suspicious of me, they want to do a lie detector test on me,\u201d the email read.<\/p>\n<p>The emailer asked for a copy of Maschke\u2019s book, which describes countermeasures, and for Maschke to help \u201cin any other way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maschke said he suspected the email was a ruse by federal agents. He advised the person \u201cto comply with applicable laws,\u201d according to an email he showed McClatchy.<\/p>\n<p>Although federal authorities haven\u2019t contacted him, Maschke said he worried that visitors to his site, AntiPolygraph.org, would be targeted simply for looking for information about polygraph testing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The criminalization of the imparting of information sets a pernicious precedent,\u201d he said. \u201cIt is fundamentally wrong, and bad public policy, for the government to resort to entrapment to silence speech that it does not approve of.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Instead of criminalizing truth-telling about the weaknesses of polygraphy, the U.S. government should heed the warnings of the scientific community and terminate its misplaced reliance on this pseudoscientific ritual.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marisa Taylor and Cleve R.
