Strip Strangler is the twenty-third episode from the first series of the popular American crime drama CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, which is set in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is the last in the first series.

A new serial killer is on the loose in Las Vegas and the entire team is called to investigate it. The killer has a good understanding of forensics and leaves little or no evidence behind, causing the sherrif to bring the FBI in to help. This annoys Grissom, especially when they use Sara as bait to lure the killer. Consequently, Grissom is taken off the case and it's up to his team to show their loyalty to both Grissom and forensics and ultimately crack the case.

The serial killer is played by Michael Cerveris.
