While the series has kept its focus on fact-based storylines, that wasn’t the case when it came to Agent Bill Tench’s son Brian in Season 2.
Since Tench is based on FBI Agent Robert Ressler, all evidence points to no, but that doesn’t mean that Brian’s storyline doesn’t take its cue from another real-life case.
During the season, Brian was involved in the death of a toddler and showed signs of ultimately becoming a serial killer himself.
But was any of what happened with Tench’s son real?
