Polygraph Tests Reveal Parents' Truthfulness in Missing Children Case

Three months after the disappearance of Jack Sullivan, 4, and his sister Lily, 6, from their home in Lansdowne Station, Nova Scotia, the results of polygraph tests conducted on their parents have been revealed. According to the documents obtained by CTV News, the children's mother, Malehya Brooks-Murray, and their stepfather, Daniel Martell, were both found to be 'truthful' in their responses during the lie detector tests.

The first round of polygraph examinations took place on May 12, 2025, just 10 days after the children were reported missing on May 2. The investigator noted that at that point, the disappearance was not believed to be criminal in nature. However, the children's stepmother, Janie MacKenzie, also underwent a polygraph test on June 10, but her 'physiology was not suitable for analysis, and an opinion on the examination was not rendered.'

Two days later, the children's father, Cody Sullivan, was also found to be 'truthful' in a separate polygraph examination. Despite these results, the police have stated that they are still 'considering all scenarios' in the ongoing search for the missing children. Investigators continue to evaluate all tips and information, with no scenarios having been ruled out.

The case has taken a heartbreaking turn, as the children's paternal grandmother, Belynda Gray, has expressed her fear that she may never see her grandchildren again. The family's anguish is palpable, as they grapple with the uncertainty surrounding the children's disappearance.
