Ryan Wilson

Ryan Wilson is the accomplice of serial killer Cindy Hemmet who appeared in Cycle of Violence in Profiler.

Background
Ryan was a student who went to Hamilton High in Atlanta, with a gift for comic illustrations. His area was tragically one of danger and violence, with multiple batterers and negligents around his neighborhood, even across the street from him. He soon became closer to a girl at his school, named Cindy Hemmet, who would witness her father batter her mother regularly, leaving her severely scarred. She adored a comic series named "Vanjour", written by the eccentric and mentally ill Evie Long, about a female superhero who kills villains with a flaming sword only to purify their souls. With her idolization of Vanjour and his love for comic art, they became a couple, Ryan going as far as painting a mural of Vanjour covering the wall of her room. The two then hypothetically discussed the worst people in their area they would wish for someone like Vanjour to take down, Ryan even drawing conceptual art to represent Vanjour fighting their brutal neighbors. What Ryan never expected, and refused to believe let alone stop, is Cindy eventually taking a flaming sword made for her and using it to murder them under the guise of Vanjour.

Cycle of Violence
Ryan's first seen when being questioned by Bailey Malone and Samantha Waters, questionably saying he was sick and he could show a doctor's note. The reason for the questioning was he placed a hotline call heard earlier about one of Cindy's victims, Steve Kidwell, beating his wife, Shelley Murphy. He again came into question when one of Evie's many unopened letters was found to be written by him. Malone and John Grant searched his room, leading to them finding both Vanjour art and crystals, and then him being brought in for questioning while Evie was brought in for consultation in the murders. When Cindy killed again, they both were cleared and released. For Ryan, it didn't last long, once he was brought in again after the mural and sketches of the victims he made were found. In his usual nerves, he shakily, and more so in tears then, told about his and Cindy's relationship, all the while struggling to answer their big question: what were Cindy's final murders? He admitted her parents were her last intended victims, then he showed a drawing of the opera house her father worked at, with the two of them tied up and ready to be struck by Vanjour's sword. He was most likely arrested, along with Cindy, who was stopped before she could finish her murders. They both were then either incarcerated or institutionalized after being taken into custody.
