In the movie, James Dove is a bomb squad LT. who has a heavy conscious of blowing up civilians when he was with the IRA or whatever fanatical organization he was with. There is no way he would be a police officer with that kind of background, I don't care how great a bomb person he is....police backgrounds are so thorough a TRAFFIC TICKET doesn't get by without notice, and whatever isn't revealed through word of mouth ...the polygraph reveals...and it WORKS..believe me...I tried several times to get on with my city police department, and to no avail...and I have a squeaky clean record, (never did pot) if you can believe it!! and this terrorist becomes a LT in the Boston PD...come on.
