"All men wish to rape their mother at some point."

José Antonio Rodríguez Vega, a.k.a. "The Old Lady Killer", was a gerontophilic serial rapist, killer and necrophiliac active in Santander, Spain during the 1970s and 1980s.

History
Rodríguez Vega was born in a dysfunctional family of Santander, Spain in 1957. His grandfather was rumoured to have poisoned his grandmother, his father and elder brother were jealous, violent alcoholics, and his mother was aggressive, dominant and violent as well. When he was 8, Rodríguez Vega was molested by a 50-year old widow that he considered a friend. He became a compulsive masturbator and at age 12 he began to feel sexual impulses towards his own mother, that he found disconcerting kept secret. By age 18, Rodríguez Vega had also become violent and was expelled from the family home after throwing his then wheelchair-bound father down the stairs.

He married a high school mate with the opposition of both families and had a son, but the marriage was a failure.

Profile
"That son of a bitch made a report on me without knowing me nor talking to me. This is why I'm going after that bastard when I get out."

The forensic psychiatrist team that examined Rodríguez Vega before his trial declared that he "is a heartless psychopath and a sexual pervert with capacity to distinguish between what is licit and what is not. He has no sense of guilt and lacks compassion and shame. He may repeat similar acts in the future."

On Criminal Minds
Though Rodríguez Vega has not been mentioned or referenced directly in Criminal Minds, he might have provided some inspiration for Pablo Vargas, the unsub in Machismo. Both Pablo and Rodríguez Vega acted in Spanish-speaking countries, were serial rapists of younger women before switching to raping and killing elderly women (though Pablo was unable to consummate during his second spree), took mementos from their victims, and had difficult relationships with their mothers. Pablo's murder of his mother may have also been a reference to Rodríguez Vega wishing he did the same to his own mother.
