She also advised me that the department does not conduct polygraph as part of the hiring process. I now have the decision to either lie on the form or tell the truth about the incident. I know if that if I lie eventually I will be found out, but I believe that the long-ago arrest will never become known. If I don’t lie, I will be asked to explain the situation of the arrest and my friend will be implicated in the story.…
