Garcia, working from her BAU "cave", and two computer techs from the CPD started searching through social networking sites hoping to catch a photo of the abductors shortly before or after the abduction. There was a coffee shop and a park across the street from the babysitter's home and they were hoping that they would get lucky with people posting from those locations. They were also looking through the local red light cams from yesterday afternoon, hoping they could find the car the babysitter had described.
At about 7:00 pm they caught a big break. They found some posts from a few teenagers on Facebook warning their friends not to go to the "repo house" tonight. According to the teens past posts, there was a large, abandoned, bank owned home for sale in a middle class neighborhood that had been the hot spot for young couples for the last two weeks. Some of the FB chatter said they had seen some cops going into the back yard. Most of the kids thought they had found out they were hanging there, but one person said that there was a young boy with the cops.
That was enough to get a search warrant and head over to the house. They had the place surrounded. The male suspect tried to jump the fence to escape and was caught by the uniformed officers surrounding the area. The female tried to shoot one of the SWAT agents and threatened to hurt the boy. Without her knowing, Morgan and Reid had been able to get to the window of the room Billy was being held. Morgan had entered the house and passed Billy out to Reid to bring him to safety. The female suspect was shot in the shoulder but would be fine. Billy was taken to the hospital for overnight observation, but was unharmed as the team had predicted.
As they were heading back to the airport for the drive home, Spencer thought again about the text he had received earlier. Bob, his sponsor, had become a good friend over the last 8 months and he had been trying to set Spencer up with his granddaughter, Chelsea, since early November. He was not interested in dating anyone right now, but especially a relative of his sponsor. He was worried that it would be uncomfortable when it didn't work out. He was sure that no one would want to date him. He had seen photos of Chelsea from childhood, high school graduation, college graduation and a few recent shots at Bob's house. She was very beautiful. She had the same coloring as Bob, most likely from his Northern Italian heritage. She had dark brown hair with fair skin and in every photo she was smiling her bright green eyes sparkled. She truly looked happy in each shot. Why would Bob think she would have anything in common with him?
Spencer enjoyed his life, he had work and was friends with his co-workers, he loved to spend time by himself and read, he had chess acquaintances, and recently he had been playing poker and going to an occasional party or gathering with Bob and his law enforcement friends. But people tolerating his idiosyncrasies for a few hours in a group, was much different than someone dealing with them one-on-one on a date.
