>>>Notes from Part Segment One ( 956464) of the Tom Leykis Show
>>>
>>>- References denoted in Minutes and approximate seconds
>>>
>>>
>>>First Two Minutes : John Grogan’s name is introduced for the purpose
of his doing an “ON THE AIR” polygraph test of one Howard Schultz who is the L.A.
based producer of Fox TV’s “Moment of Truth” show. The host, Tom Leykis, is using
John Grogan in an attempt to test Schultz as had previously been agreed upon, to
see if he know the show is fake among other questions. Mr. Schultz was informed
via email by examiners about who and what John Grogan is and represents. He therefore
declined to be tested by Grogan as he said he is Not a “Certified Examiner” .
>>>
>>>John Grogan went on in the time segments I reference to make disparaging
remarks about the APA, it’s home office in Tennessee, and the one woman who answers
the phone there. He further makes remarks as indicated by time segment on your
windows media player time counter.
>>>
>>>
>>>15:03- John Grogan is introduced as “The Most Televised Lie Detector
in the World”
>>>
>>>17:11 to 19:08 - Grogan references his criticisms of the Fox show
in saying “Our Professional Guidelines” and “Our Standards”
>>>
>>>19:45 - Grogan claims “ I test a lot of Sex Offenders”
>>>
>>>23:00 – Grogan References to APA as a “Small Group of Examiners” and
that it is an “Ineffective Group” and that they are “10 to 20 years behind the
times”
>>>
>>>24:22- Grogan states he “bought his 1st Instrument 20 years ago” as a “Part Time Thing for Me” . He further references that he has been collecting instruments.
>>>
>>>26:18 to 27:11- Grogan and Host talk about APA’s position on the Fox
Show “Moment of Truth”.
>>>
>>>29:47- Grogan is referenced as having been on TV and/or the Media about 300 times or more.
>>>
>>>30:45 – References to APA’s position which is the result of Grogan’s former statements.
>>>
>>>33:28 to 36:05- Jack Trimarco’s call is taken by the host as a perceived regular member of the listening public. Grogan lies on the air about his convictions. He side tracks the truth by saying he has never been convicted in a "criminal" court.

The call is taken at the tail end of the first segment so Jack’s call is given no more
time.
>>>
>>>
>>> Segment / Part Two MP3 956500
>>>
>>>
>>>1:15 to 2:25- John Grogan is given a chance to respond to the allegations
and appears tongue tied. He claims that Jack Trimarco is only a “Jealous Competitor”
and that Jack is “Jealous of my success” and that “I do more polygraphs than-------------any other polygraph examiner” The host further interviews Grogan and asked “ Why don’t you sue this guy ?” to which Grogan replies “It has been thought of before” and (Grogan saying of Jack Trimarco) “If I could say on air what I know of his reputation I’d be in trouble” and “Others have tried to bring forth what we know and what we suspect, and We’ve learned Not To” when asked WHY Grogan replies “I can’t say, I’m worried about getting sued like the others”
>>>
>>>4:01- to 5:02 - a caller questions Grogan response to Jack and claims
“You can check in criminal court, or court in the world”
>>>
>>>5:20 to Antother caller calls in and says that Grogan sounds like Forest Gump right now, and has Caca in his pants, and doesn’t know what to do right now !!!! The caller further says “ He’s a Fake, He’s a Fake”
>>>
>>>9:10- Another caller calls in to say that he is a law enforcement officer,
and challenges Grogan on his parsing words as having never been convicted. Grogan
responds ( 9:34) with again “The Jealous Competitor” and that the only time he has
ever been in “criminal” court was to testify for or against other people. Further, that I have never been “Criminally” charged.
>>>
>>>9:15- Grogan claims to have a graduation certificate from a $5K polygraph
school he would send / fax to the host.
>>>
>>>10:25- Grogan is asked and denies losing his P.I. license due to fraud.
When cornered by the caller he states simply “I stopped practicing in the 90’s”
= a clear lie !!!
>>>
>>> Grogan is again cornered about having any conviction and hangs his
hat on the word “Criminal Court” when he knows he has been convicted by Administrative Law Judge Paul M. Hogan of the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services / Dept.of Consumer Affairs / State of California on 10/21/02 for multiple counts of fraud for his former “Earn While You Learn” program. Grogan is clearly participating in passive avoidance.
>>>
>>>11:30- The host states that he is open minded about whether Grogan
does or does not have a conviction besides his denial, but wants proof.
>>>
>>>15:45- Another caller calls in to say that Grogan’s credibility has been “Blasted” and the caller further comments on Jack Trimarco’s segment as having said his facts with such conviction. Caller further comments on Grogan as building a career on doing polygraphs, and how one phone call showed his credibility was in fact in question. The Host further commits to getting to the truth in the matter.
>>>
>>>17:18- The host further commits to a follow up and to report back with their findings.
>>>
>>>17:42- Grogan is given an opportunity for some final words. Grogan
responds that he attended a $5,000.00 Polygraph Academy and will fax in his certificate.
>>>
>>>18:45- The segment ends with Grogan who bids goodbye.
>>>
>>>The time afterward in the segment is minus Grogan, but callers and the
production staff speak of how one can be an Examiner in California just by say so,
and that one does not need to be a school graduate. Obviously Grogan spoke to the
Producer just after being on air and prior to departure.
>>>
>>>21:00 to 26:55- The Producer speaks with the Host about the State of
polygraph in California and that they are waiting to see who puts up the proof.
They further talk about the segment as being as tense as a train wreck.
>>>
>>>31:00- Caller phones in to say “I believe Jack” as credible.
>>>
>>>37:40- Reference to John Grogan’s Credentials.
>>>
>>>
>>> THE END

Gee, last time I saw Tom Leykis he seemed like one of them fuzzy-headed liberals. Libertarian, if I recall correctly. Had long (long) hair, wore a leather jacket, and did his radio show standing up.

Has there been any follow-up on the show regarding Grogan?

Where are the convictions that Jack T. spoke of? I've heard of them over and over again, but I've never seen any criminal convictions on paper. They are public record, and they may even be available on some of the criminal records data bases that many PI's have access to. If anybody can get the actual complaints and judgments, it would be nice to get them posted for any future reference.

Hi All,

In regard to the radio show Tom Leykis 97.1 FM in LA and eslewhere. Jack Trimarco agreed to come on the show when asked, and Grogan refused. Leykis promised a follow up to this, and we can all encourage it by emailing Tom Leykis at tom@blowmeuptom.com

Here is the link to Ralph Hilliard's piece on Grogan http://www.polygraphplace.com/articles/issue138.htm#1

In this fine work you will see that Ralph exposed Grogan as a house of cards (Websites) that lead back to one phone number. You can tap on the pages and print them ou as PDF files which are legible. In short, Grogan was signing off on new investigator's 2000 hour requirement of experience for them to take their P.I. License for a fee. He defended himself and tried to snow the Administrative Law Judge on a BS line that it was an Earn While You Learn program. The Judge found him culpable on all counts, and all of his permits (P.I., Weapons, Mace, Baton) were revoked. + he had to pay over $20,000.00 to the State for the cost of their investigation. The finding was on 10/21/02.

KEEP THIS UNDER YOUR HAT; But I have the same BSIS Investigator for Dept. of Consumer Affairs now opening a new case, and they smell blood. Grogan is on borrowed time. I have personally written the "requested" conditions of sentencing myself which I will offer up as a friend of the court brief via my Attorney on behalf of the legitimate polygraph community. Time will tell if it ever gets used, as he gets due process first. Clearly his 40 pound polygraph academy in a box is just another reincarnation of "Earn while you learn" !!!

A year ago I appeared at CAPE as a guest speaker on Asylum & Other Immigration Issue testing; and the very next week that bastard was advertising it. I have had him in my sights ever since and am a patient hunter.

Hi,

The so called "Convictions" are only from an administrative law court which in essence found him culpable / guilty of what was alleged by I'm told 26 counts of fraud activity. It carried no weight in the criminal world, but it was the catalyst event that caused Grogan to enter the unregulated / unlicensed California polygraph market, as he could do so overnight. In fairness, he has flooded the internet with variaton websites.

The current investigation is progressing. Grogan has further represented himslf on at least one occassion as a Retired FBI Agent / Examiner, and that is being looked into now. If current trends bloom, he will be hit with Federal, State, and perhaps other civil prosecution soon. We need to organize and find out where he will appear on the radio or TV and email them the Parasite piece by ralph as a link, and warn them of civil liability of using this fraud.

Is there a way for Ralph to make that link come up on a Google query for Grogan or the PEOA? Perhaps it needs a site of its own for that purpose. It's the truth, so Grogan isn't going to be able to sue. (That's why he was squeamish when Jack called the radio show.)

A glance at his website would tell you he a misogynist.

He'll say that he loved every one of his four wives.

Hey Everyone,

@#$%^%^^#$@%$# #$%^#$^#$ #$%#$56

That's how I felt having to listen to three hours of nonsense, but I thought it was going to be worth it to hear the truth broadcast to over 4 million listeners...most of whom are in California...grogans manipulation grounds.

I am so so sorry to everyone that they never brought it up as promised. I even had a grogan victim who called into the producers as the show started to tell his story and they told him that it was going to happen later in the show...and then nothing.

Again everyone, I'm very sorry that my last minute email went out...I wish I could take it back but I got the news at the last minute myself and got caught up in the frenzy.

I'd have felt worse if I missed it. Do we know if there is a show planned at some point? I don't trust this guy to follow through with anything except to treat women like disposable toys.

NOW THAT is an ultimate April Fool's prank. Force good people to endure 3 hours of sub par humor, blather, and sexism for nothing. Hilarious!
I am envious of your pranking deviousness Ralph!lol
