Faces of Evil, originally released as hardcover format, is now available in paperback. The price, therefore, has also been dramatically reduced. I encourage those that have yet to journey through the gritty atmosphere of a forensic sketch artist to see, first hand, what I have spent my life doing - catching criminals with my drawings.

The Book Page will provide a link to Amazon.com for you to purchase and read more about it.

A little unidentified murdered girl was found on a remote sand bar of Galveston Island on October 29, 2007. Lois Gibson was brought in to create an image from the severely decomposed remains in an effort to discover her identity. Gibson used a photo of her daughter, Tiffany, at about the same age as the murdered girl and drew the clothes in which the body was found on that image. The two drawings were released to the world-wide media November 2. On November 5, Sherly Sawyers of Mentor, Ohio, the grandmother of two-year-old Riley Ann Sawyers, called Galveston Police wondering if it was her grandaughter. Soon it was determined that the mother, Kimberly Trenor, who recently moved to Texas with Riley, was involved in the little girl's death along with her husband, Royce Clyde Zeigler. On December 1, 2007, a DNA match confirmed Riley Ann Sawyers was indeed the little murdered girl. Trenor, 19 and Ziegler, 24, are both held on $350,000 bail with charges pending.

Lois is at it again, but instead of putting someone behind bars, she is helping an elderly man, Glenn McDuffie, of Houston to get some closure on the famous Kissing Sailor picture from the cover of Life magazine. McDuffie just turned 80, and after many years of trying to prove he is the man in the photo, Lois has stepped up to confirm what he has known for many years. Read the entire story at The Houston Chronicle.

A new category, Facial Reconstruction, has been placed under Gallery. The gallery includes two victims that were recreated from skeletal remains. Lois has dedicated some of her time to reconstructing the faces of individuals whom's identity is unknown. From the reconstruction, the authorities are able to release photos of the victim to viewers in the hopes of identifing a victim that may otherwise never be. Check it out!

A woman who fled a bloody regime in Cambodia with her husband, only to see him slan in their Baytown doughnut shop for $20, cried and hugged her daughters Thursday after the killer was sentenced to life in prison. "Justice has been served," said Mon Meach. "But nothing can bring my husband back." (Houston Chronicle, Staff, 04-27-07) Lois' sketch, done immediately after the killing, prompted a patrol officer to recognize Jarrett Driver, the killer, as he walked down the street days after the murder. Lois received a letter of commendation from the Baytown Police for her work on the case.
