She was previously killed by serial killer Frank Breitkopf. Gideon was supposed to leave Baut on the show because the actor Gideons, Mandy Patinkin, wanted to leave the show. He thought the series would be too brutal, and he abhorred this cruel nature. The position of Gideon is now taken over by David Rossi (Joe Mantegna), he replaced Gideon in the episode Masks. Image caption Mr Gideon reportedly suffered a nervous breakdown after six of his colleagues were killed in a bomb attack on a warehouse run by Adrian Bale. It happened before Criminal Minds started. In red or blue (third episode of season 1) he's dealing with Bale again. He was called out of the hospital to lead the BAU team in the pilot episode The Abyss, but later stepped down to leave the place to Aaron Hotchner. He then became a senior supervisory assistant until retiring in Season 3. Gideon had a talent for counseling and was always a great help to his colleagues, both Derek Morgan and Spencer Reid. He is also an avid chess player, as was proven in several matches against Dr. Reid. He had a relationship with a woman named Sarah Jacobs, who later fell victim to Frank Breitkopf. In the job, after a series of emotional outbursts, one of which had been the death of his girlfriend Sarah, Gideon began to feel as if he was suffering from burnout. The last thing missing was Hotchner's two-week suspension, for which he felt responsible. He retreated to his cabin during that time and left a letter to Reid, knowing that he would come to see him. When Reid arrived at the cabin, she was empty except for Gideon's gun, his ID and the letter. Gideon was last seen talking to a waitress at a nevada diner and told her where he wanted to go that he didn't know where he wanted to go. Then he leaves the diner and drives away with his car. He mentioned that one of the reasons for his resignation was that he did not want to lose faith in the good and in happy endings.

Faith in happy endings. - Gideon's farewell letter to Reid from In Name and Blood Jason Gideon was a criminal profiler, former Senior Supervisory Special Agent of the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit. At the beginning of season three, Gideon abruptly retired from the BAU due to emotional problems stemnated by the murder of his girlfriend. His position is now held by his former partner and best friend David Rossi, who has kept it to this day. In the Season Ten episode Nelson's Sparrow, he was murdered by Donnie Mallick. Background Gideon was the protégé of Max Ryan, who taught him everything he knew about profiling, but he did not escape the humiliation of being a new recruit. One of Gideon's earliest cases was a bomb case that max was monitoring. As a joke for the new member, Max and the other investigators involved planted a list of the FBI director's whereabouts over the next 48 hours in the bomber's car for Gideon to find. When he found it before Max could stop him, Gideon rushed up 25 flights of stairs and interrupted a meeting between the director and the U.S. Attorney's Office in an attempt to save him. During the investigation into the case of Adrian Bale, aka The Boston Shrapnel Bomber, Gideon had reportedly suffered a nervous breakdown after he sent six men into a warehouse before Bale detonated a bomb inside. All six agents and one hostage were killed, and he was heavily criticized for the incident. He took six months of sick leave because he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. When he returned from sick leave, he was given the position of senior agent when Hotch was confirmed as unit manager. Not much is known about his personal life, except that he has a son named Stephen, with whom he was estranged because of his commitment to his job. Season one I can't tell you how much joy I'm just told I put you in this little little cage. You can even call it an emotional release. In the show's first episode, Extreme Aggressor, Gideon was called back to work to help profile a killer, called The Seattle Strangler by the media, who abducts women and holds them captive before choking them and dumping their bodies. After Gideon puts together a profile they believe the unsub is Richard Slessman, a convicted Rapist. When they pick up Slessman, the pieces don't all fit together, and they conclude Slessman is the brains of a duo. The team eventually discovers that Timothy Vogel, a prison officer who protected Slessman while he was in prison, is the actual perpetrator of the crimes. Gideon manages to save Heather Woodland's life by angering Vogel to the point that he forgets the victim and tries to kill Gideon, only to be shot by Elle. Gideon is amazed to discover that he has seen The Footpath Killer. After solving the seattle strangler case, Gideon is seen at an old-fashioned gas station in Dumfries, Virginia. While inside, Gideon notes that the cashier fit his profile of the Footpath Killer, a serial killer he had been investigating before being called up for the Seattle Strangler case: a white man in his twenties, owned an American-made truck, worked on a menial job, and spoke to a serious strain. The man notices Gideon's gun and threatens him with a shotgun and insists he tells him who he is. When Gideon reveals he's from the FBI, the gunman gets even more agitated. Gideon then tells the man that he can tell him the one thing no one has ever been able to tell him: why he stutters. But Gideon didn't really know the answer, only trying to provoke a strain to distract the killer. The killer forced Gideon down a hall and into a small room filled with pictures of his many victims, an amount that was more than law enforcement had found. Gideon deliberately demeans and insults the killer, increasingly agitating him and making his tribe worse. He takes his eyes off Gideon long enough for him to grab the gun and subdue the killer. I Will not be fooled again, a copycat bomber uses the methods of serial bomber Adrian Bale (the same criminal who committed the warehouse bombing that killed his six colleagues), and Gideon faces his past and Bale, to find out who the bomber is and stop him. After saving the lives of several agents from a suicide bomb, Gideon was forced to make a deal with Bale to get him to help them get a bomb out of an innocent man. When Gideon realizes that Bale is lying about how to dismantle it, he calls his bluff and saves them all from a bomb going off. He has the pleasure of returning Bale to prison, the burden of the six agents' death presumably gone, even mocking him while he was placed in a cell using Bale's own words ([A]n emotional release) in one sentence; He says he finds it an emotional release in putting away criminals like Bale. In Plain Sight, Gideon is a major reason why the team is able to catch The Tommy Killer, a serial rapist and killer who would glue his victims' eyes open. Gideon discovers that this serial killer is a phone technician Glue his victims eyes open because he feels invisible. He manages to confront the killer when he is To kill another woman, persuade him that he will make him famous, causing the killer to surrender and release the hostage. In The Fox, Bau was able to connect Karl Arnold, aka The Fox, to the murders of five families. Without forensic evidence to link Karl to the crimes, they needed a confession to convict him. Gideon, knowing that Karl was obsessed with keeping things in order, mixed up the images of the victims' bodies. This was more successful than he expected; Karl knew that not only were the images out of order, but were able to identify the bodies that only the killer would know. With this evidence, Bau was able to convict and imprison Karl.
