"A US citizen murdered in Mexican soil," agent Garrett told everyone in a briefing while showing horrifying pictures of the woman and her kids all dead. The next scenes further divulged that the victims were just one of those unlucky who got killed by the UnSub. As Clara (Alana De La Garza) said, they weren't actually the target and that he has done the crime to other victims hoping that he could get rid of himself of some guilt.
In related news, "Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders" will be airing its finale this May 25 and the segment will see the chief's wife Karen (Sherry Stringfield) and his son Ryan and daughter Josie. The kids are now off to college but what troubles the operative is the fact that Ryan is looking to join the FBI.
"It's hard for [Jack]. He's conflicted," Sinise tells TVGuide.com. "He did the same thing -- he followed in his father's footsteps, so he understands the family business aspect of it. Yet he also knows how dark the world is and the different types of things he's had to face in his career, the challenges. But he doesn't want to be a hypocrite and discourage [Ryan] either, so he's trying to find that medium."
The show airs Wednesdays, at 10 on CBS.
