JJ backstory in upcoming episode

From TV Guide Mega Buzz:

What can fans expect in J.J.'s upcoming backstory on Criminal Minds? Any idea when the episode will air? — Jackie

ADAM: The episode airs Jan. 20, and finds the BAU investigating a string of teen suicides in a small Wyoming town. The team believes the deaths are linked, and executive producer Ed Bernero says the case will have a surprising personal connection to J.J.'s childhood.

I automatically swore the team has done teen suicides before but I think I just confused The Popular Kids (season one) and A Higher Power (season three). =/

Anyway, my initial thought about the personal connection is that she may have lost an older sibling to suicide. Feel free to comment and/or speculate below!

Clarification of JJ's back story (as well as some for Morgan) with references to Hotchner and Reid

During an episode, (I believe it was after Hotchner's wife was murdered by the reaper, and him and JJ were talking on the plane on their way home). JJ revealed to Hotch that she had a necklace that her sister had given her, telling her that no matter what happened, she loved her- then alluded to the fact that she either committed suicide, or was murdered shortly thereafter.
I can't wait for them to dig further, and find out exactly what happened. I'm also a bit curious about Morgan's complete backstory- I mean, I know he was sexually assaulted as a boy (seems like by a religious official, although they've never been totally clear on that) as well as seeing his father shot in front of him when he was nine. I hope they fill in the backstories for both these characters, as well as throw in some flash backs. I really loved the way they presented Reid's back story.
PS- love Mandy as Gideon, really miss the character he did so well.

You might wanna watch Profiler, Profiled (Season 2, Episode 12) for Derek's back story. His problem with God didn't have to do with a religious official but the fact that God didn't intervene in what happened to him as a kid.
