Ever since the introduction of Kristina Frye, i have doubted her of being RJ.
There was a time when RJs gender wasnt revealed. The makers always thought it wise to say "Red John" every time instead of "he" or "she"
However i believe only in season 4 Lorelei says "he" and not simply "RJ"
She might have been misled...
RJ is definitely a manipulator, I dont think only money would actually make anyone do things you want. There has to be some persuasive powers involved to make someone do it and actually believe that what they are doing is absolutely right.
The only people i can think of who have these persuasive powers are Kristina Frye and Patric Jane. If PJ is really RJ, then i think it is pretty lame, so KF is my next best suspect.
KF and Patric Jane are more or less adversaries trying to prove a point of whos best, It gives KF enough motive to keep haunting Jane as RJ and keep him alive to enjoy seeing him being defeated every time
I think KF staged her own abduction by RJ so as to remove any doubts of her being RJ herself. Its the most perfect alibi.
If she were indeed abducted, why did she take her passport and other things with her? and then why did RJ keep her alive...Keeping Jane alive is one thing as RJ obviously enjoys it but whats the point of keeping KF alive, it just doesnt add up
When KF was recovered, the easiest way to escape any kind of interrogation about RJ was to plead insanity which is exactly what she did.
and then she suddenly vanished. The very fact that jane has never tried to go to her again and try to stabilise her emotionally to get information about RJ is suspicious
If Jane is trying hard and banking on the smallest of small leads to get closer to RJ, why hasnt he tried to approach KF again to get any info possible on RJ. If she has really gone crazy, why doesnt he try to hypnotise her and then gather information
The makers obviously are trying to take KF away from the spotlight so as to bring her again suddenly as a big shock and surprise
The Mentalist has always been known for strange twists and turns. Wht bigger surprise and twist than the fact that Red John is actually a woman !!!
