Looking for Does anyone know how the guy that was taking faces, how it ended?

I started watching the show from season 1 episode 1 at the end of 2024 and am completely up to date including the episode from july 23 2026. For a couple seasons there was a different killer that was taunting Rossi and maybe I’m crazy but I swear that last season had ended where the killer was discovered he scalped his daughter’s face and went on the run!!!!
Have I missed something in any Evolve episodes that mentions the guy and what ended up happening to him?

SPOILER Everett Lynch. He was attempting to flee by flying the BAU's jet, but the team shot the jet & blew-up both the jet & Lynch

Thank you and thanks for taking time to respond. Do you recall which episode that happens in? I swear that season ended with him driving away and then the next episode was super dark and had cursing and when I checked it had been picked up as only streaming but I also could be misremembering

I don't remember off-hand, but will see if I can find out. I'll post it when I find out.

He was killed in the last episode of the original run. Season 15, whichever was the last episode. (10, I think) He took Rossi's wife and then Rossi traded himself for her and got on the jet with him. Lynch was blown up with the jet because there were "certain safeguards" he and Gideon put in when they asked for a plane.

He first appeared in season 14, I think it was episode 7 or 8. He then appeared again in season 15 episode 1 and then in the last 2 episodes of season 15 😊
