Criminal Minds 7x22: Profiling 101

Original Air Date: 9 May 2012

Storyline: In a class where college students are being taught criminal profiling, SSA David Rossi and the team present one of the BAU's longest open serial killer cases, which takes the class through the Bureau's pursuit for a murderer that lasted nearly 20 years.Trivia: In a flashback from 2005 we see Dr. Reid wearing a gun. Before 2.14-2.15 (aired in 2007), he was not wearing one.

The character David Zimmerman (portrayed by Zack Weinstein) was named by Virgil Williams as a shout-out to fellow writer on the show, Bruce Zimmerman.
The case presented in this episode was loosely based on Henry Lee Lucas, who was convicted of murder in 11 different cases and was once listed as America's most prolific serial killer. Lucas died in prison on March 13, 2001 from heart failure at the age of 64.
