Season 1
In Extreme Agressor, Gideon holds a lecture about him. At the end of that episode he was seen at a gas station owned by the Footpath Killer. According to Gideon's profile, he was in his late 20s, worked a menial job, owned an American-made truck in a state of disrepair and would likely speak with a severe stutter. When Gideon saw him, he knew it was the Footpath Killer.

Knowing Gideon was some kind of law enforcement officer, the Footpath Killer threatened him with a shotgun and was planning to kill him too. When they were alone, Gideon started to mock him about his stutter, making him let his guard down. He was then knocked out and arrested.
