Theory #12920 • By Stoopkid

Ok so i just concluded that the bomb in janes house had to go off after jane was unconscious. When he tries to recollect what happened it stops right before the gunshot. Jane bertram and smith all survived becuase they were in the house when it exploded . They were placed there . Styles haffner and macalister fakes their deaths. One of em is shot it dead from that shot . The bomb was a elaborate scheme to most likely fake styles death as he arranged with patrick earlier it seems . I think macalister is helping jane . Hes the only member of tiger tiger who seemed to like jane and want to help him . He doesn't seem to be merely helping jane because he is guilty from tt and wants to know what jane is on too. I get the feeling he legitimately wants to help jane find rj. Now rigsby and van pelt may be styles followers and set the fire to help
Styles. I dont think pj was in on it since he has no memory of how it went down. If van pelt and rigsby helped him does that make him rj? Idk but i doubt it . Styles has other motives . Being jesus for his church is top priority. Haffner also could of helped since he obvi follows styles . Either rj is styles or someone not in the house . Hmmm

I don't have a clear picture of who Red John is, however I want to add something. Why would the producers add the scene of Stiles doing the "blood ceremony" for no reason? I feel like that has some relation with Red John, though I doubt that Stiles is RJ? Connected, yes.

Agree? Not so much? Comment please!

For all you Canadians out there - RJ is Toronto Mayor ROB FORD !!!

My evidence:

1) He drives an Escalade! Only a serial killer and/or environment hater would do this. Where else would he store the bodies when transporting them?

2) He engages in illegal activity on a regular basis - prostitutes, affiliating with known drug dealers, smoking crack, uttering racist and homophobic slurs, etc.

And these are just the things we KNOW about, people. My mother taught me that these are the kind of people that end up in jail. Bad morals = breeding grounds for serial murderers.

3) He is losing his cult of followers slowly but surely, day by day. One only has to see the photo of him seeing alone in chamber to know his "political" followers have converted to the Tyger Tyger organization. Their last attempt to remove all his power has him screaming for more!

4) Patrick Jane (aka Canadian citizens) will bring him down this very week! We know this from reading Spoiler TV reviews (aka Toronto Star).

5) Despite him being a terrible role model, generally unintelligent and useless to the world, he still manages to attract intelligent, petite and reasonably attractive women (his wife in particular), traits we know to be true of the infamous serial killer RJ.

6) One just needs to hear his jolly old laugh to know that he can really lay on the charm and charisma when the time calls for it. Whether or not this certain charm and charisma is aided by the use of illegal substances or the flask under his desk, we may never know.

Torontonians, you know it to be true in your hearts ... ROB FORD is RJ!!!

Non-Canadians, google it. You'll believe it as soon as you see the pictures and read the scandalous illicit stories as of late.

I don't think it is one of the men with the tattoo.  Red John won't have that tattoo...his minions will.  He is running the show.  I think he "brands" his workers with his mark...I don't think he will have the mark himself.  He regards himself to highly to share this brand...

Wanted to clarify my earlier post about the BP theorist abuse etc... it wasn't an angry rant or anything. (Apologies if it sounded that way.). Since Partridge seemed like the most obvious (and yes, lame -totally agree) choice ... I'm sure Heller has heard that feedbk, it occurred to me that maybe Heller had his ppl come on here and deliberately post a bunch of anti BP theories as a way to influence everyone into thinking it's someone else, so the "big reveal" would hopefully not be as lame if RJ is in fact! BP. Wouldn't you try anything to build it up and throw everyone off in the 11th hr somehow if you'd heard everyone already knew who dun-nit? I'm not a rabid BP fan or anything (frankly I think it's McC!!!). but that theory occurred to me as I was reading through the site earlier. That's all. Am going to ms this!

Keep in mind ... What constitutes a twist to the 9 or 10 million people who watch the show casually every week is different than a twist for the 3 or 4 hundred obsessives who populate this site ( me included ) ...

Brett
If he faked his death the body should be ash already when Cho went to check it .. he can not take the risk by delaying the burn of false body.
How he can be sure he will not be identified as a live?  and the body does not belong to him??? 

Reede
I guess we all agree he is out

Gale
from the last episode: very unlikely

Bob
confirmed dead by the blakes

The bomb and the three bodies
DNA Plantation is not impossible and has been used by much less smarter than red john. However the blakes can easily mess with the report and the DNA matches.

three bodies became "crisp" while Reede clothes are not touched!!! forget about Gale and Jane, they are a bit far

the gun shot happened long before the explosion, so it has nothing to do with it. Lisbon didn't hear it and Jane knew what happened. That's why they didn't ask Reede about it  

I'm  guessing Here:
Some one tried to act .. Jane tried to shoot. Most probable the one raised the gun and the shot was on air. the situation got out of control

Red john (I assume Ray) has brought the bomb in a box together with three bodies ... during the mess he activated the bomb and disappeared together with Tom (The highest rank in the Blakes) and Bret (first Mentor)

What do you think??
