It would be safest to assume that information you provided during your previous polygraph might be made available to those conducting your upcoming polygraph.
A polygrapher's determination that your answers to questions are inconsistent with previous answers could reasonably be expected to have the potential to result in adverse consequences for you.

- Jan 31, 2026, 12:27 PMHello. I was convicted of possession of _________ (not hard to figure out) back in 2016, and had to take a bunch of polygraphs for Probation of, let's say County A.
I was convicted again of the same thing, like an idiot, in 2021, and just got out of prison basically. The 2nd instance was committed in County A also, but I paroled to a nearby county- County B.
I am probably going to have to do a history polygraph again, probably at a completely different location, especially since I'm not technically allowed to go out of the county. Very small chance I foresee them taking me to the old place.
I am wondering however, if they will have a record of the old polygraph results. Again, the 1st one was for county probation, in County A. The second one will be for State Parole, taken most likely at a location in County B, where I live. However, the crime, both times, was committed in County A.
There are things I'd probably answer differently after thinking about things, and I don't remember exactly how I answered the old questions. I'm worried they could cross-reference the old results if they had access to them and I'd fail just by the inconsistency even if I was being honest.
Does anyone know if either parole, or this polygraph place will have access to the old records & cross-reference them? The latest polygraph I took was from like 8 years ago also. Thank you.
