WENDELL C. RUDACILLE
author of Identifying Lies In Disguise
I began my law enforcement career in 1968, serving with the U.S. Army
Military Police, 9th MP Company, 9th Infantry Division in Vietnam.  

Upon return to the states in 1969, I was reassigned to the Army Criminal
Investigation Division at Ft. Dix, NJ, and remained there as a Criminal
Investigator until I separated from the Army in 1971.

In 1973 I joined the Howard County, MD Police Department (HCPD).  I was a
Patrol Officer for 10 years and a Detective for 10 years.  I became a
Polygraph Examiner in 1987.

In 1991, I began work on Identifying Lies In Disguise, based on the results of
a 2 year research project I conducted to identify and document lie-related
forms of verbal evasion used by deceptive subjects in criminal investigations.

I retired from HCPD in 1992, and started my own business:  Rudacille &
Associates, Inc.  I did polygraph examinations for corporations, attorneys, and
private citizens.  

From 1993-2000, I conducted seminars for law enforcement academies and
investigative agencies on the techniques of verbal-based interviewing and
interrogation I have set forth in Identifying Lies In Disguise.

During 2000-2003, I conducted counter-intelligence polygraph examinations
for the Department of Defense.

In 2003, I returned "home" to HCPD to work as a civilian Polygraph
Examiner/Special Investigator.

Academically, I have a M.S. in Psychology.

I wrote Identifying Lies In Disguise to provide police officers and investigators
with a way to effectively understand how most untruthful persons lie to us
indirectly using "Evasive Verbal Responses" instead of with direct,
confrontational lies.

Identifying Lies In Disguise is now in its 6th printing.

Over the years, I have received hundreds of calls, letters, and e-mails from
those of you who have read my book or attended one of my seminars.  Your
comments have been overwhelmingly positive about how Identifying Lies In
Disguise has helped you become a better interviewer and interrogator, and I
thank you for them.
