One of the oldest Crime series to continue airing, Criminal Minds, relaunched by Paramount Plus, is all geared up to release the next episode of the show.
The show was first seen on September 22nd, 2005. Its engaging plot coupled with the wide variety of cases made it one of the best crime shows on CBS. Though the show was said to be done in 2020, It was soon picked up for another season in the form of Criminal Minds: Evolution, which started airing on November 24th, 2022.
The current season is similar to its previous counterparts and revolves around the BAU in FBI solving cases and identifying unsubs, who are criminals that have committed heinous crimes. Just like other police procedural shows, Criminal Minds has been offering curiosity-inducing cases coupled with an amazing cast for more than a decade.
The cast has changed much over the years but A. J. Cook, Matthew Gray, Joe Montegna, and a few others remain constant. We’ll be seeing the team coming across another trap by their current subject, Sicarius. This killer has been going rampant all over America and has set up kill kits, which offer his followers help in killing others.
Criminal Minds Season 16 Episode 4: Recap
In the episode from December 8th, 2022, we see the BAU naming the unsub as Sicarius, as he was killing people brutally and had gained followers over time that were working with him now. Tyler Green is captured but the investigators find out that he was involved with Sicarius as he wanted to take revenge.
They call Penelope Garcia to try and talk to Tyler Green, as he was a part of Sicarius’ kill kits and would know the location they’re at. He refuses to say anything, so Penelope leaves. They later try to talk once again, as most of the kill Kits are found except 2. Upon hearing about his sister and Penelope’s grudge against him, He agrees to speak and be a part of the cognitive interview.
Meanwhile, we see Jennifer and William having some alone time and talking about kids, they’re interrupted by the insurance guy. David and Emily talk about the killer and assume that he deliberately set up Green to be arrested. His kills were with precision, so it wouldn’t be possible for him to get set up by Green.
Another kill takes place in a couple’s home while they were on vacation, which seems to match those done by Sicarius. During the cognitive therapy, Tyler recalls the events that took place before his sister’s disappearance and says that her boyfriend, Lee, could be Sicarius.
The killer brothers, who could be connected to Sicarius are out on a hunting spree again, but this time, they target their stepmom. The FBI manages to get to the house at the correct time and arrests the brother. They don’t admit to being part of Sicarius’ network. Tyler agrees to help the BAU find a way to communicate with the killer, by providing them access to the server.
