Who is Red John?

Theories of Foolery (1)

Like most people I'm thinking that the list we saw isn't the real list at all, I know Heller said that Patrick's list is legit but he didn't say that that list was Patrick's list did he?

I'm thinking that that room and everything about it was a decoy, I reckon that Red John has had hidden cameras in that room for a very long time and Patrick subtly noticed them and started misdirecting Red John with his 'investigation'.
Almost every season 5 episode we're reminded that Patrick has a perfect memory so why would he need to write the names down at all if not for someone else's benefit?

As for who I think it is, my strongest suspicion is Patrick's father (I'm not sure why Patrick made his list based on people he met after his wife and daughter's deaths), but I don't think it is too farfetched to think that maybe he had plastic surgery and is now masquerading as someone Patrick knows, probably Kirkland considering his deep knowledge of Patrick.

Argue on this theory or rate it.
