Authorities say the polygraph tests change nothing in the case.
The couple has since moved to Atlanta. Flanked by lawyers at a news conference, the Ramseys presented the expert hired by their lawyer to administer the tests and a quality control analyst who evaluated the results. Examiner Ed Gelb said the test results show the couple were not lying when they denied killing JonBenet. Lin Wood, an Atlanta-based lawyer representing the Ramseys, had asked Gelb to conduct the tests. Gelb, who administered the tests in Atlanta, is a former president of the American Polygraph Association and has been an instructor for the FBI and the Department of Defense.
