Top 10 Criminal Minds guest stars

7. Erin Strauss, played by Jayne Atkinson

As the section chief of the BAU, Strauss wasn’t the most popular character. Many of the decisions she made may not have benefited the team and made them feel annoyed with her, as well as the audience watching. While not much was revealed about her at first, we eventually found out she was a recovering alcoholic. Unfortunately, she also met a tragic end as a disgruntled FBI agent forced her to drink red wine at gunpoint. She ended up being poisoned and died tragically in Aaron Hotchner’s arms, tearfully telling him she didn’t want to die alone. In this scene from season three, she is telling Aaron that former agent Gideon is leaving the team.
