Brain waves?! In the courtroom?! It's more likely than you think:

At issue is a practice called brain electrical oscillation signature (BEOS) profiling, developed by the Bangalore-based Forensic Science Laboratories.

...

a year-long expert review of the technology found it to be unscientific; the review committee, headed by the chief of India's national neuroscience program, recommended against using it in court or even during investigations.

Nevertheless, the government's forensic science department rejected these recommendations on the grounds that the committee took too long.

Remember folks: Reading your brain waves does not equal reading your mind.
