Originally this test was prompted by some article that talked about how a couple survived infidelity. Then it went on to state the Husband took a polygraph test. So, I was asked if I would be willing to take one at that point. My answer was yes, of course. At the time it seemed like a great idea actually as I finally felt like I would be cleared of my charges. I was naïve to the whole process and did absolutely no investigation into it.

That is precisely the problem.   The polygraph continues to enjoy "free passage" in all the popular media (magazines, TV true crime, true crime paperbacks, etc.) , thus very effectively propagating the image of its infallibility as the final arbiter of truth and deception! :(
