Season: 1, episode 16 Real Life Criminal(s): The Manson Family The case began after the bodies of American teenagers are found skinned and impaled, in what is originally believed to be Native American rituals. Like on Criminal Minds, he actually fed some of his victims to his pigs. He was convicted of 6 murders but is believed to have killed at least 30. This is much too like real-life killer Robert Pickton, who worked alone to kidnap homeless people, prostitutes, and drug users for his kills. This led them to two brothers who had been murdering transients and then feeding them to the pigs on their farm. The BAU is called onto the case after a family member of the murder falsely admit to the crimes to bring it to the FBI’s attention. Season: 4, episode 25 Real Life Criminal: Robert Pickton Watching “To Helland Back”, you probably thought there was no way it could be based on anything real, the killers fed their victims to pigs! Both killers were apprehended by a mob of angry citizens who were tired of the killings. He murdered at least 13 people in southern California, raping and robbing others before getting caught by the police. This is very similar to the killings done by Richard Ramirez AKA The Night Stalker. The media dubbed the killer the “Prince of Darkness”, as his murders occurred in the dead of night.
