Aaron Hotchner:
We believe whoever poisoned these people was motivated by revenge.

Derek Morgan:
The randomness of the victimology, average people in an average-sized town, all points to a local resident.

Elle Greenaway:
We know that people who poison for the purpose of revenge primarily act alone.

Aaron Hotchner:
However, he may have manipulated someone close to him to assist him. The unsub usually disposes of these accomplices when they are of no further use to him.

Elle Greenaway:
The unsub is likely a cautious, deliberate, and highly functioning male between the ages of 35 and 50.

Aaron Hotchner:
He chose LSD for a reason. LSD is about altering perception. We think that this unsub is striking out because he feels that's he's been inaccurately perceived by the community, or a subset of it.

Derek Morgan:
He feels that these attacks will affect and alter a reality that he is caught in, that he perceives to be unjust.

Aaron Hotchner:
He's so self-centered, he believes his victims will know the reason for the attack and who did it.

Dr. Spencer Reid:
This individual was savvy enough to use Rohypnol to obstruct our investigation, erasing the memories of the victims of how they were poisoned.

Detective Hanover:
Hold on. If this guy believes that his victims know who he is, why is he covering his tracks?

Jason Gideon:
Because these victims aren't his primary targets.

Aaron Hotchner:
We... we know from precedent that this kind of offender, the avenger, tests his weapon first. This attack was a test run.

Detective Hanover:
A test run for what?

Aaron Hotchner:
We don't know yet. What we do know is this is not the first time he's aired his grievances. While it's not likely that he has a criminal record, it is possible that he has filed criminal charges, or pursued a civil action against his perceived adversaries. And now, to measure the results of his test, he's watching.

Jason Gideon:
And he wants to see the results of his test. Once he has them, all those years of pent-up rage will be unleashed in the form of a larger attack. Profile indicates a lot of people could die.
