Lucas Turner

Lucas Turner was an autistic serial killer who appears in Season Four of Criminal Minds

Background
Lucas was the slightly retarded son of an abusive pig farmer in rural Ontario. As a child, Lucas' father had struck him so hard in the head that blood had run out of his eyes. This may have caused his retardation. He had grown up his entire life on the farm and was angered when his brother, Mason, wanted to sell the family farm following his graduation from med school. Lucas pushed Mason from the loft of a barn, paralyzing him. Lucas then waited on Mason hand in foot, while his brother lay helpless in his bed.

Lucas slept in the same loft since he was a child, decorating it with child-like crayon drawings. His brother often ordered him to steal specific medical supplies from pharmacies, labs, and medical supply stores. The supplies were used to keep Mason alive, and to serve the paralyzed brother's evil purposes.

To Hell and Back, part 1 and 2
Lucas is first seen picking up a homeless man on the streets of Detroit. He has been posing as a drug dealer outside a sleazy motel in order to kidnap transients and other poverty stricken people who cash their welfare checks there. Lucas is then seen carrying the young man back to his farm in Canada, where he seems to be extracting a white fluid from the victim's neck. The victim is later slaughtered and fed to the pigs.

Lucas is then seen kidnapping another young person. This time, a female. She is a prostitute named Kelly. After dumping his car in the usual place near the US/Canadian border, he throws her into a skiff and takes her across a river into Canada.

Meanwhile, the BAU has theorized that the Unsub may be using the old Underground Railroad to take his victims across the border. After identifying the unsub's car as belonging to Mason Turner, the team drives to the farm house.

Lucas is holding Kelly in front of a window to the house where Kelly sees Mason lying in bed, surrounded by mirrors. Lucas is presenting her to him to find out if she is suitable. Just as Kelly sees Mason, Lucas sees the team pull up and takes Kelly to a nearby cellar.

She awakes to find Lucas writhing in pain--or mental anguish--near her. She looks around and sees that the room is decorated with crayon drawings and white Christmas lights. She begs Lucas to take her to the hospital, but Lucas says that she has to stay. He is apparently in pain because he is waiting for a phone call from his brother (unknown to Kelly). She explains that since they are underground in a cellar, there would be no cell phone reception.

Lucas becomes angry and lunges to hit her, but is surprises and terrified when she screams, "Mommy please!" Lucas stops and realizes that he is about to commit the same violence his father had committed on him before. He calms down and Tells Kelly his name after she introduces herself. She asks if she can have some food. Lucas goes out for a moment, leaving Kelly behind. She had convinced him not to tie her up, saying they were friends. Kelly tries to escape but the cellar door is blocked. She does, however, find his cell phone. After a minute, Lucas returns with some berries, smiling. After a short conversation, Lucas confesses that he pushed his brother from the loft and "hurt" him.

Kelly then convinces him to let her go to the bathroom outside, where he can't see. She kisses him on the cheek and goes off into the bushes. She tries the phone, but finds that it is restricted to call only one number; Mason. She calls the number.

Garcia, who had been tracking the cell phone on Mason's laptop nearby, answers. Garcia tells her that help is on the way and the GPS locator triangulates the signal. The team is coming.

Meanwhile, Lucas hears her talking and rushes to snatch Kelly up and drag her back to the cellar. Within a few minutes, Reid manages to locate the cellar by way of triangulating a series of strange carvings on nearby trees. Hotch opens the cellar door and rushes to put himself between Kelly and Lucas. Lucas falls to the floor crying, consumed with guilt. Hotch takes Kelly away as armored agents rush in. Lucas stands and charges them. The agents open fire, riddling him with bullets.

Profile
The BAU mistakenly profiles Lucas as someone with knowledge of medicine. They note the fact that the supply thefts never included any narcotics. It is eventually discovered--from Mason's confession--that Lucas had been stealing medical supplies and taking victims in order to supply his brother with stem cells. Lucas was just doing what he was told, as he felt guilty and helpless.
