When someone makes a false allegation of sexual assault, the consequences extend far beyond the accused—they can also make it harder for genuine victims to be heard, believed, and supported.
In this episode of Inside the Polygraph, veteran investigator and expert polygraph examiner David Goldberg explores one of the most sensitive and controversial issues in criminal investigations: the difference between legitimate victims of sexual abuse and fabricated allegations.
Drawing on more than 30 years of investigative and polygraph experience, David discusses why false reports consume valuable investigative resources, how they can undermine confidence in future reports, and why every allegation must still be thoroughly investigated with professionalism, empathy, and respect.
The episode also revisits the Jeffrey Epstein case, examining the lasting impact of sexual abuse, the courage it takes for survivors to come forward, and the importance of seeking accountability regardless of a person's wealth, power, or public status.
In this episode:
✔️ The difference between real victims and false allegations
✔️ Why false reports can harm legitimate survivors
✔️ Why many victims never report sexual abuse
✔️ The long-term psychological effects of trauma
✔️ The importance of compassionate investigations
✔️ Lessons from the Jeffrey Epstein case
✔️ The role of polygraph examinations in supporting credibility and helping individuals find closure
This episode is intended to educate and encourage thoughtful discussion surrounding sexual assault investigations, victim advocacy, and the pursuit of truth. It is not intended to discourage anyone from reporting abuse. Every allegation deserves to be taken seriously and investigated professionally.
If you or someone you know has experienced sexual assault or abuse, please contact your local law enforcement agency, a qualified mental health professional, or a victim advocacy organization for assistance.
