Does Voit know more than he's sharing in Criminal Minds: Evolution?

Voit helped Rossi put the clues together to figure out who North Star is in Criminal Minds: Evolution. Just how much does he actually know about Gold Star?

Voit is smart in Criminal Minds: Evolution. We’ve seen him one step ahead of the BAU this whole time. He knows more than he shares, and that is likely the case with the recent episode.

The new episode gave us the Rossi-Voit meetup that we needed. Rossi needed to face Voit, and it helped him crack the code. While Voit said he didn’t know anything about who Gold Star really is, and he’s even looked into it, but he had a feeling Rossi could work some things out.

Sure enough, Rossi was able to figure out who North Star is. It’s not a person but a collection of people. It’s the BAU. Does Voit know this?

Voit knew Rossi would figure it out in Criminal Minds: Evolution

Voit likes to play games. He wants people to see how smart he is, and he wants them to play to his needs. So, the Voit-Rossi moment seemed like something we’d already seen with the rest of the BAU. Voit had the answers, but he wanted the BAU to figure it out. In this case, he wanted Rossi to figure it out.

Didn’t it seem like Voit knew that Rossi knew something? Why would Voit give this information to Rossi and not other members of the BAU at various points of the investigation? It’s like he knew that Rossi was the only one with the information, which suggests that Voit knows something more.

It is possible that Voit just suspected something. It could be possible that Voit learned something from Damien that helped put the puzzle together that Rossi knew more. Voit needed confirmation that Rossi had the information. This now allows Voit to give more information to Damien.

I suspect that he doesn’t actually know who started the Gold Star program. However, he knew about Stuart House being the perfect place to create serial killers. That suggests he knows something about the paper, but not who got their hands on the paper.
