2002In light of the fact that the scientific validity of plethysmography tests has not been considered in Illinois, we believe that defense counsel should have objected to the admissibility of the test results and requested the trial court to conduct a hearing pursuant to Frye v.

1981In State v. Valdez (1962), 91 Ariz. 274, 283 , 371 P.2d 894, 900 , the Arizona court found that the machine had “developed to a state in which its results are probative enough to warrant admissibility upon stipulation.” Polygraph evidence was found to be admissible provided: “(1) That the county attorney, defendant and his counsel all sign a written stipulation providing for defendant’s submission to the test and for the subsequent admission at trial of the graphs and the examiner’s opinion thereon on behalf of either defendant or the state.

1994The statute's provisions bear a reasonable relationship to the public interest, and the means adopted is a reasonable method of accomplishing the chosen objective. ( Crocker v. Finley (1984), 99 Ill.2d 444 , 77 Ill.Dec. 97 , 459 N.E.2d 1346 .) Accordingly, a strong presumption attaches to legislative enactments such that all reasonable doubts must be resolved in the legislation's favor. ( Thillens, Inc. v. Morey (1957), 11 Ill.2d 579 , 144 N.E.2d 735 .) The 28-day limitation is reasonable.
