BAU team members: Special Agent Dr. Spencer Reid


Dr. Spencer Reid is 26 years old (though when the 1st season started he was 24), he's a misunderstood genius with an intelligence that makes him a great source of information for the BUA squad; his rank there is as Supervisory Special Agent and brought in by Gideon. He graduated from school at the age of 12, has 3 Ph. D’s, shot and killed 2 men while working for the BUA and he was held hostage in the middle of a mission. Reid is considered a little autistic that may be referred to Asperger Syndrome.
He developed and addiction after being kidnapped by a crime suspect, but his problem is solved several episodes later. He fell in love with a young actress, which he was protecting and also had feelings for her partner JJ.
Spencer lived with her father and mother back in Las Vegas, some time after Spencer’s mom developed schizophrenia and his father abandoned them because he couldn’t deal with this situation. While growing up he learnt everything he read from books he read, or her mother read to him which built the huge knowledge he posses. By the time he was 18, he thought his mom wasn’t having a good life so he took her to a mental institution, where she still remains. Reid is worried about his gene information, but so far he hasn’t developed any symptoms related to her mother’s disease.
