i think my neighbor is gay

This doubt made me feel exhausted. I felt that this was an impossible task. I thought that Shawn fit our profile, but after meeting him, I was not sure about my guess.

He's nothing like him now, and it's like saying that every police officer and even everyone with access to these cases is our suspect.

I feel a little tired, as if I thought I could relax a bit after finishing some work, only to find that there are more things waiting for me.

"Our unsub has a newspaper." JJ walked in with the newspaper, wiped his face, sat on the seat and closed his eyes. I took the newspaper and looked at it. The title on the home page was very eye-catching: [He is our hero! 】

Reid frowned and flipped through the newspaper, finally raised his head and said, "I thought of the clerk's case in the first half of the year again, it's really similar to now."

I looked at him questioningly, and he briefly explained: "It's also a vigilante, and the stenographer who entered these cases is the murderer."

"This time is different." He said a little tiredly, "Although the people killed by the stenographer in that case were not convicted, they were indeed guilty, and this one..."

He twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled when he said this, as if he was mocking that person: "This time, I just want to prove my judgment is correct. It can be seen from the recent victim that he forced the other party to confess. , he is just addicted to the pleasure of judging other people's lives, he has completely lost his original sense of justice."

I frowned inexplicably and asked, "But isn't the latest victim also guilty? Why do you say that unsub has lost its sense of justice?"

"Torturing the victim and forcing the victim to admit that he is guilty, his mentality is no different from that of an ordinary serial killer." Reid explained to me, "Next, he is likely to convict others spontaneously and force others to admit his guilt. Delusional charges."

It's so horrible, I thought it was a very unusual unsub.

The consequences of the publication of this newspaper are exactly as we imagined. The whole city is boiling because of this unsub. This is the last thing we want to see. Now the police station can receive many calls supporting that unsub every day. The sheriff received it A lot of phone calls from the top—after all, this is in Washington, and unlike other small places, the safety of Washington is very important.

Many other newspapers have published information about unsub, they think he is the guardian of the city, and some tabloids even ranked the "most unpopular people in Washington list", and the police officers don't even know where to start to investigate.

In such a chaotic moment, unsub strikes again.

This time, the victim's body was thrown in the trash can, and she was still shot in the middle of the head. The victim was a woman, wearing a short skirt, and the stockings on her knees were worn out. Bau's database Garcia quickly found and She matched the information, and she said strangely: "Guys, this case is a little different from the previous ones-her case was sentenced at the time, but with a lighter sentence, she killed someone, but she claimed that the person Tried to rape her, it's just that no one can prove it, she was doing well in prison, so she was released early."

"If this is true, then it's not her fault. Why is she on the unsub target list? She doesn't qualify." I grinned incomprehensibly, frowned slightly and said: "This may show that unsub started not to care about the charges. He started to judge for himself. As long as he thinks it is someone who is guilty, he will force her to confess and then make a verdict."

So this woman also has bruises on her knees, and Reid added with a frown on the side: "It's a symptom that people tend to think of as paranoia."

I looked at reid and thought about it carefully. He was right—but some time ago I still felt that what unsub did seemed to make sense. Syndrome", well, I really don't understand this unsub at all now.

This time, the location of the unsub abandoned corpse was not remote. Before we left the scene with the corpse, the all-pervasive reporters appeared again, standing outside the cordon, pushing and shoving, the flashing lights kept on, as if lying here It was not a dead body, but a sleeping star.

JJ went to face the media again in a low mood. The sheriff arranged the work of the police officers and came over to us and asked us: "So should we expand the scope of file search now? It is really huge to search for all serious cases. workload."

Shaking his head, he looked at the corpse and sighed: "There is no need, unsub no longer follows the case, and his next one may be innocent people."

"Why did this happen?" The sheriff frowned incomprehensibly. "Shouldn't his targets be those who are guilty but get away with it?"

"It's 'someone he thinks guilty'." Reid interjected, looking at the sheriff and saying, the sheriff turned his eyes to him, and reid licked his lips and continued, "He clearly sees himself as the adjudicator now, the victim The wound on the knee is because of his interrogation, and he is forcing the victim to confess the crime that should not belong to them."

The sheriff stopped talking, but we persuaded the sheriff, but we couldn’t convince those annoying reporters. Their endless questions made JJ show a tired expression. When I passed by, I listened and just heard a reporter He said: "Why did the FBI arrest that hero? Shouldn't their nature be the same?"

...What is this problem called?Are these really journalists?Isn't it really an anti-social element?

I really couldn't listen anymore, but just when I wanted to rush over, Reid grabbed my arm and took me into the car.

"Why didn't you tell them the truth?" I couldn't understand and asked, "Why didn't you tell them that unsub is just a delusional person? Now his actions are not motivated by his sense of justice at all!"

Reid shook his head: "They won't believe it."

I feel very irritated, this case always makes me very irritable, especially the enthusiastic pursuit of unsub by those media, it makes me really want to rush to the newspaper office to smear the editor-in-chief of the newspaper.

However, no matter how irritable I was, I never thought that the enthusiastic pursuit of unsub would come to an abrupt end in this form——

Unsub killed a female high school student the night after he committed the crime.

It was raining in DC that night and the little girl was thrown in the middle of the road in a huge black trash bag like she was just a random bag of trash thrown by an unsub, driven by a taxi driver in the middle of the night At that time, I just saw Unsub carrying a garbage bag, he rolled down the window and called out: "Hey."

When Unsub heard the sound, he immediately threw away the garbage bag and got into a nearby alley to escape.

The driver didn't catch up, but opened the garbage bag, and when he saw the dead body in the garbage bag, he quickly called the police. The girl was a good girl, and she never came home after nine o'clock in the evening. Realizing that something was wrong, he came to the police station, and the identity of the victim was quickly found out.

The taxi driver recorded a statement, and this statement has become the only statement so far that can describe unsub, and no one has ever seen unsub before, but his statement also describes the appearance of unsub. Not many, we only know that unsub is a tall man with a strong build, wearing a black hoodie at the time, but there are not many such people in Washington.

The news this time couldn't be blocked at all, and within a few hours there were reports on this case. The media that had previously praised unsub to the sky had completely changed their tone. They began to scold the police for their inaction, but This looks much better to us than the horrible enthusiasm that preceded it.

There is no need to worry about the media for the time being, because they will obviously not mislead the public after this victim, but at the same time, we can be sure that unsub has completely completed the transformation from vigilante police to forced murder.

This also makes him harder to catch, because his targets are no longer limited to those who are in the police archives, but those who "he feels guilty", and we can't predict what he will kill next. What kind of person would be, and what kind of person is a "sinful person" in his eyes.

I used to have a delicate attitude towards this unsub, and even admired him for having the guts to judge those scum who took advantage of legal loopholes, but now my perception of him is worse than that of ordinary serial killers .

The sheriff’s mental state is not very good these days. After all, he is the person who bears the most pressure here. The pressure from the media and the direct pressure from his boss, he has still gritted his teeth and never complained to us. I also admire it, if it were me, I should have thrown myself into Reid's arms to decompress.

Our previous profile was overturned, because those descriptions of vigilante police are no longer applicable to the current unsub, me and reid went to the forensic laboratory, the little girl's body has been sent, and the autopsy report is almost out Well, we need to hear from the coroner.

"Her fatal wound was on her forehead, clean and neat, no different from the previous ones." The coroner touched the gunshot wound on her forehead with gloves on, and his expression was even relaxed, probably because he was used to seeing corpses, "The only strange thing The only thing is that there are signs of binding on her hands again."

The coroner took the girl's hand out from under the white cloth, and there were circles of bluish-purple marks on it, which looked very hideous, but the coroner's expression didn't change at all. He looked at us and explained: "The rope is the same as before. According to the traces, she seems to have been bound many times, and the rope is thicker than the previous victims."

"But why use a thicker rope to tie a girl who is not strong?" I asked inexplicably, Reid stared at the girl for a while, then suddenly raised his head to look at me, pursed his lips and said: "He probably had a target and wasn't sure he could catch it, and this girl had something in common with the target - she was probably just a stand-in."

No matter how long it takes, I still can't understand why there is such a "substitute" when a serial killer commits a crime, but Reid seems to have figured out something, standing on his own, frowning and thinking.

"Oh, yes, there are some skin debris in her nails. She may have resisted. We have already tested it, and the report will take a while." The coroner handed us the autopsy report and said .
