Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

For anyone that needs a "White Lies" fix.

I just bumped into a Criminal Minds team kill count, which I'd been idly looking for for a while (don't ask). So I'm recording it here, as of 101 episodes:

  • Hotch, 4.25 (The Tribe, A Real Rain, Legacy (split with Morgan, Prentiss, and the CotW), Catching Out, 100)
  • Morgan, 4.25 (Charm & Harm (split with Elle), Lessons Learned, Open Season (split with Prentiss), Legacy (split with Hotch, Prentiss, and the CotW), Minimal Loss, Outfoxed)
  • Elle, 2.5 (Extreme Aggressor, Charm & Harm (split with Morgan), Aftermath)
  • Reid, 2 (LDSK, Revelations)
  • Prentiss, 1.75 or 1.25 (Lo-Fi, Legacy (split with Morgan, Hotch, and the CotW), and maybe Open Season)
  • JJ, 1 (Penelope: 1 shot, 1 kill (eta: wait, she also killed a pack of wild dogs in Revelations--I think she maintains her 1 kill per bullet ratio))
  • Rossi, 1 (About Face)

Apparently Gideon never even fired a gun.

Legacy. Gideon is still there, but Elle is gone. It is a cleaner in Kansas City.

That one is messed up. I like the cop of the week. He was sweet. And Reid gets propositioned, the sweetie. I like to focus on that.

Morgan JUMPS in a moving car, because he is awesome and my secret FBI boyfriend

That's almost as good as the episode where he tackles the train.

Notice how when he's in charge he sends people home to eat and sleep? He's a doll.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Legacy is profoundly disturbing, from the first scene on.

Maybe Hotch just remembers what happened the last time he sent someone home to sleep.

What? We have couches and vending machines. No leaving!

a Criminal Minds team kill count,

Cool. I'm a little surprised Hotch and Morgan don't have more. Seems like an awful lot of bullets have flown to have only 4 each. But they do a good job of catching without killing, most of the time.

Let's blame that on Anderson. Awful things tend to happen when he shows up in an episode.

I was surprised by the low kill count too, but my expectations have been set by CSI and their ilk. It's saner this way. Less counselling.
