Boylan, known as a facial identification specialist and sometimes called a "psychic artist", has worked with the FBI and other authorities on thousands of cases, including the Susan Smith child drownings, the Oklahoma City bombing and the Polly Klaas abduction.

Hmmmmmm, she did ok for the FBI. Just a thought.

Careful with the facts here; "worked with" doesn't mean successfully. Lots of these self-styled assistant detectives "work with" investigators, with or without the investigators invitation. And the claim that she has worked on "thousands" of cases sounds fishy to me. Most full time police officers and FBI agents haven't worked on "thousands" of cases. She is credited with an exceptionally good sketch of the Unabomber, but we know nothing about the witness(es) or the circumstances of their sightings of the Unabomber. She may be a very good artist, who can predictably produce a good likeness when the witnesses are able to accurately communicate the appearance of the perpetrator. However, there's a good deal of evidence that she's a pretty heavy duty self-promoter, and uses some unusual touchy-feely methods, and that's why I wouldn't expect police to lend any credence to HER claim that a sketch she produced with MK's assistance was likely to be very accurate.

Hmmmmmm. Just possibly the SLCPD/FBI already thought of that all by themselves AND have a damn good reason for not involving her.
