Susie Bright did a very comprehensive & gutsy interview with Palfrey, and its transcript yields this fantastic bit on the police & misogyny:

According to an Associated Press story, Larry Flynt asked Vitter’s accuser to take a lie detector test. She did and she passed. Copies of the polygraph will be made available at the press conference on Tuesday in Beverly Hills.
