Criminal Minds
The crime dramaCriminal Mindsran for a whopping 15 seasons before finally wrapping up this year.
Let us look at ten things that escaped us about this esteemed unit of the FBI.
The unit was created as part ofthe National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime.
The unit consults in violent criminal cases and works in tandem with investigators.
The range of skills required at any time apparently often depends on the nature of vacancies available.
And it’s hard when the bubble finally breaks.
Unfortunately for fans, the highly popularized idea of an FBI profiler is really just an idea.
The BAU does conduct psychological profiling of sorts butit does not really have a position known as a profiler.
The process they follow is known as criminal investigative analysis.
Over the years the BAU has also extended its expertise to non-violent offenses, white-collar crimes, and cybercrimes.
Fans would definitely covet a behind-the-scenes tour of the FBI’s profiling offices on set.
WhileCriminal Mindsshows a fully operational BAU,Mindhuntertells the story of the BSU during its inception.
