She obviously overdid her cm's. What she should of done, was NOT take the money, and see if he still called her guilty. It was obvious that she had to take it so she could lie about it and see if she could get caught (the experiment), that's how he "knew" she was guilty before even hooking her up; it was the whole premise.

Here is the link to a story about Emily Yoffe. She writes a column called The Human Guinea Pig for Slate on MSN.

http://slate.msn.com/id/2112734/?GT1=6082

Her story is very interesting. I just wonder Mr. DeBow could possibly explain that he knew she was deceptive from minute one. Ms. Yoffe even visited this website and claims to have studied TLBTLD. Here is an excerpt from the story:

QuoteBut he says he hadn't even needed to hook me up to know that. During our pre-interview, he says, it was obvious when I was lying. During most of the pre-interview I was as twitchy as a picnicker sitting on a fire-ant nest. But I'd become uncharacteristically wooden each time he asked about the money.

Gee, under such "controlled" conditions, Mr. DeBow has her guilty without hooking her up? hmmmm???
