Working with sex offenders is often a difficult process. Having access to reliable polygraph services is a must. It is a privilege to work with Mr. Thomas. His equipment is "state-of-the-art", his knowledge is always exceptionally current, and his ethics are impeccable.

When I have questions, Mr. Thomas' professional demeanor makes him quite approachable. With a growing population of clients requiring polygraph examinations, I am happy to know that I can rely on Mr. Thomas' expertise.

I worked as a prosecutor at the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office for 20 years. During that time, I had the distinct pleasure of working with JD Thomas on numerous occasions. JD is a consummate professional, and his knowledge of and experience in his field made him one of the most sought after detectives in our office.

Working with JD is such a pleasant experience. He is always well prepared and eager to learn what he can do to make the case the strongest it could be, without compromising the truth. JD is always honest and conducts himself with the utmost integrity: if the science does not support it, he will not speculate or guess, which is an essential trait in a good detective and polygraph examiner.

JD stays current with his education and any evolving science in his area, so that I know I can trust his work. Furthermore, when JD takes the stand, I know the jury is getting the truth. JD excels at explaining his work in terms that a lay person can comprehend, allowing the jury to understand his process and the science behind it. When JD testifies, the fact finder can be as confident as I am in its decision to trust him and his work.

JD was not only an asset to me on those cases in which he did the polygraph; he was also of invaluable assistance to me when I had a report from another examiner. JD took his valuable and scarce time to review the other examiner's report and video of the exam, pointing out what was done properly that I could trust, but also addressing areas where it appeared proper protocols were not followed, allowing me to effectively assess whether I had a reliable test. To be clear, JD is never denigrating of others' work; rather, he uses his vast knowledge and experience to evaluate others' work with precision and fairness.

I highly recommend JD Thomas to anyone needing accurate, solid, reliable, and fair polygraph work as well as a witness and consultant that will solidify the case.

I would like to recommend to you Jerry Thomas, Polygraph Examiner, to assist you in employment practices for recruiting or other security purposes for your business as well as a resource in any criminal investigation you may find necessary for polygraph examinations.

Jerry worked for me as a Sergeant in the Recruiting Division for 12 years at the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office where he worked as a recruiter and later studied to become a Polygraph Examiner under the leadership of Mark Handler, a well-known and respected Polygraph Examiner in the field. Before being assigned to the Recruiting Division, Jerry had already spent time in patrol where he earned investigative experience to initially prepare him for his future role of Polygraph Examiner.

Jerry possesses a full understanding of pre-employment interview techniques as well as changing dynamics within the workplace in order to provide the most comprehensive and complete examination and report to fit the needs of today's employers.

I found Jerry's work professional, concise, and timely when preparing and presenting reports and maintaining records. He is organized, reliable, flexible, and one that can work under pressure and deadlines. Personally, I found Jerry to possess the highest character and ethics. His interaction and communication skills with supervisors and peers alike were friendly, warm, and inclusive.

Jerry's experience in conducting thousands of polygraph examinations for employment and criminal justice purposes while maintaining high levels of continuing training and peer reviews with those known in the field, makes him an outstanding leader in the field today.
