Probably because Dr. Phil is a quack.

Because they're good for television ratings. Brainlets eat that shit up

Because he's an entertainer. Also, while polygraph results themselves are unreliable, it's still useful as a tool, to trick stupid people into giving themselves away because they don't know that polygraphs are bullshit.

"Dr Phil". I feel embarrassed for you

>then why does Dr Phil always have his guests do them?

It's know as "sensationalism".... Don't tell me you think Dr. Phil is an actual doctor?

same reason they have quack 'psychics' on

it's good ratings

why did kavanaugh say they were a valuable law enforcement tool?

that is a TV show. They should be, at a minimum, administered by a 3rd party.

Police use them for interrogation, not for testimony

Because it's a TV targeting stay-at-home moms, you twat.

Like he said, criminals are stupid so it's a good tool to force a confession. The idea is if they believe the test will work they will confess instead of taking it or confess during it thinking that if they lie it will detect it. It's like lying and saying you have evidence or an accomplice's confession you don't have to encourage a confession.
