Has your husband actually submitted to a polygraph "test?" If not, he would be well-advised to refuse any invitation to take one, and not speak with investigators without a lawyer present, for reasons explained here:

If your husband has submitted to a polygraph test, did he sign any agreement stipulating that the result would be admissible as evidence in court?

Let's just call a spade a spade. I believe you are guilty not because of the last, but because I'm a therapist and children don't ever let about they parents molestibg them. That being g said,polygraphs are worthless at determining the gulf or innocent in child molestation cases. I know because the two people accused of molesting my gr as nddon both passed the polygraphs they offered to take. Then to add insult to injury, they convinced cps that I coaxhed him into saying things and I was then asked to take one! I refused? Why! Because someone e with my education and family upbringing should never have been approached with the same disdain, disbelief and suspicioun that two sociopaths who k ew how to beat the box. Yes I am very bitter when it comes to the subject of both  hold abuse and polygraphs are concerned. Their passing it made me look like a liar and made them look innocent. What use is a list if all it does is being g grief to the I nocen

Stephanie, I cannot say for sure why you failed the polygraph, but it's important to understand that polygraphy has no scientific basis to begin with, so the question of why you failed the polygraph is similar to asking why a coin toss came out heads instead of tails.

It is quite common for truthful people to be falsely accused of lying by polygraph operators. See our Personal Statements page for examples:

In particular, see the statement of Gary Smith, whose situation is similar to yours:
