If SOCNA staff determines that additional information may be obtained, a computerized voice stress analysis (CVSA) or polygraph may be used.

The SOCNA administrator and/or SOCNA psychologist can make the final decision whether to use a truth verification measure with an offender.

Offenders will be given one opportunity to present themselves and submit to a truth verification examination. Failure to appear for the scheduled examination as part of the assessment process will result in the offender being assessed a Default Level 3 or referred to the SOAC for a determination of Level 4 if appropriate.

Any behavior by the offender to influence the results of a truth verification examination will result in the offender being assessed as a Default Level 3 or referral to the SOAC for a Level 4 consideration. The offender may be referred for prosecution for failing to cooperate with the assessment process, a Class C Felony. (See A.C.A 12-12-904(a)).
