Steven Baleman

Stephen Baleman is a serial killer/rapist that appears in Soul Mates. He is one half of a predatory killing team along with William Harris.

Background
Nothing much is revealed about Baleman's past, only that he is married to Annie, and they have a rather rocky relationship. He and his partner, William, met at a local block party, where the two instantly bonded over a rather disturbing conversation.

Soul Mates
Baleman is first seen in William's flashbacks of their meeting and subsequent murders. After that, Stephen is seen consoling Sharon Harris after Andrea's gifted car is egged and splattered with paint. Andrea is suspicious of Baleman, but her mother defends him, saying that he is the only one on the block that has been helpful while William was in custody. It is during this time that Missy DeWald's body is found, with bite marks that match Baleman. The BAU suspects that Baleman, being the submissive partner, is becoming more confident in William's absence, as there is no evidence of bitemarks on their mutual victims. These bitemarks were also present on a previous rape victim named Connie Mayers.

Andrea would then follow Baleman after a brief conversation with him later on. He leads her to a local warehouse, where he abducts her. William would show up later on, wired, and demand to know why he kidnapped his daughter. The team specualtes that William was willing to be wired in order to see Baleman one last time. After their brief reunion, both men are arrested and Andrea is returned safely home.
