What's the truth about Truth Serum?
By Todd Schafer
What’s the truth about Truth Serum? Is it real are make believe?
From spy movies to daytime soap opera’s this truth serum “makes” the person they want to talk…well to talk! In real life it has been reported that "truth drugs" have been used by Russian secret services, successors of the KGB, and India's Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). What’s in these truth drugs you ask?
Ethanol, scopolamine, temazepam, and various barbiturates including the anesthetic induction agent sodium thiopental (commonly known as sodium pentothal): all are sedatives that interfere particularly with judgment and higher cognitive function. But is it real?
Well according to some information obtained by public disclosure, truth drugs are highly unreliable, with subjects apparently freely mixing fact and fantasy. Much of the claimed effect relies on the “belief” of the subject that they cannot tell a lie while under the influence of the drug. It has also been said that the use of a truth serum such as sodium amobarbital does not increase truth-telling, but merely increases talking; therefore, truth is more likely to be revealed, but so are lies. Like I said “public disclosure” it could the feds covering up the truth…all very X-File-ish. I guess it’s up to you to decide.
