In fact, there were hints that he might actually suffer from borderline schizophrenia.

Despite the underlying pathos of this, there is something darkly humorous about the theory.

Ergo, the brunt of the cases deals with such crimes.

Perfect: Reid Is Bisexual

Another popular theory on Redditis that Reid is actually bisexual.

Apparently, when the character was conceived, he was meant to be a bisexual.

Fans, however, theorized thatReid was bisexual all alongand that would be revealed in the final seasons.

This is not just bad but also a little offensive, to be honest.

Not everybody who is socially awkward and has an unstable home life ends up being a serial killer.

Reid’s final gesture would both seal his love for JJ and make him the ultimate tragic hero.
