Rossi was in early retirement until his voluntary return to the BAU in 2007. He had retired in order to write books and go on lecture tours, but returned to settle some unfinished business which wasn't immediately specified. Having served in an early form of the BAU, it was initially hard for Rossi to acclimatize to the current team structure, but he eventually did. Rossi revealed to Sheriff Caulfield his reason for returning: he held out a charm bracelet with the names of three children from one of his first cases. The children had found their parents stabbed to death in the family home with an axe, but the BAU couldn't solve the case. Rossi had promised the children he would find out who did it. Each year on Christmas Eve, Rossi called the children to let them know he hadn't forgotten them and hadn't given up on solving the case of their parents' murders. He kept with this tradition through his return to the BAU, though none of the children had replied to his most recent calls. The case had gone unsolved for 20 years. It was finally solved when the BAU found that a mentally handicapped carny clown had committed the murders accidentally when he broke into the house to play with the oldest daughter, the father surprised the man in the parents' bedroom and triggered the resulting attacks. After finally solving the case he gave to the kids, now grown up, the bracelet he kept with him and the house where the murders took place, which he had bought. While initially Rossi came back from retirement only to solve this case he continues working in the BAU.
