POLICE have spoken to teenager Kim Duthie about her statement on sex, drugs and Ricky Nixon as the investigation into his conduct continues.
The Herald Sun believes the statement - provided several months ago - has not changed as a decision nears on whether to prosecute Nixon.
The Office of Public Prosecutions is reviewing the police brief, which could be affected by Ms Duthie's denials this week of having an affair with the former player manager.
Nixon, who says he plans to sue the AFL Players' Association, believes he has been exonerated by Ms Duthie's latest statement that she had lied about having a sex and drug-fuelled affair with him.
But during separate TV interviews on Thursday night, they differed on when they last communicated - Nixon saying they had been in contact in the past week and Ms Duthie denying any contact.
Nixon confirmed there was no ban on Ms Duthie contacting him, and he had ceased character attacks on the teenager.
Lie detector examiner Steven van Aperen has attacked Nixon's assertions that a polygraph test commissioned by Channel 7's Sunday Night was flawed.
The leading polygraph examiner said the test was in accordance with international standards.
He said he was shocked a blonde woman, who was involved in a confrontation in St Kilda with Ms Duthie on Thursday, and whom he had never met, was claiming to work for him: "Whatever her motive was, I don't know. She is not associated with my company and she did not do the test because I did the test myself."
He said Ms Duthie had not beaten the polygraph test and assertions Mr Nixon made about the testing procedure being flawed were wrong. Ms Duthie, who had felt tired before the exam, was allowed to sleep and a review of the questions was standard procedure. "It eliminates potential shock value," he said. "It's standard practice to review the questions well in advance."
Ms Duthie answered "no" last month when she was asked the question: "Have you lied in any way about having sexual intercourse with Ricky Nixon?"
Mr van Aperen found she was telling the truth, as she did throughout the exam.
"It is my opinion she is telling the truth in relation to having sex with Ricky Nixon," he said.
