Bertram, McAllister and Shawn Barrlow - none of them is Red John. I know that someone almost bald is shown in promo, and it can be one of them (McAllister can be alive since he was standing next to Bertram and Reede and they weren't hurt, DNA tests can be fake), but they are not Red John. 

Rosalind said that RJ had straight hair, and three man mentioned above are bald with no ability to grow hair again. + Sophie said RJ is middle aged and at least McAllister, but in my opinion also Barlow do not fit this descriptions. 

Kirkland is dead and there are no doubts to it. 

Reede is apparently not RJ, we know for sure after The Red Dragon episode.

Stiles does not match the RJ profile at ALL and i never suspected him.

For a little while I thought Partridge can be RJ, because his voice was quite matching, and Cho didn't check face of the body at morgue in 6x07, but then i figured that:

- RJ is too smart not to modify his voice
- we heard his voice few seasons ago, so Jane would recognize his voice a long time ago
- Patridge looks too young to me
- he seems to be dead

After all that said I have no idea who RJ is. The only options left are:

- it's no one from the list (Yes, I know what Heller said but he can be messing with us)
- it's Micheal Kirkland but that seems soooo illogical and cheap and stupid ending, i would be VERY dissappointed with an ending like that

I can't wait for the big suprise on Sunday!!

The best thing about this website is that after we all find out who Red John is and how he did everything, anyone who got anything right on here is going to destroy the people who were wrong with comments like "I farking told you so, Bitches!"

Hey guys, I've made a little video about my favorite Red John suspect, for the fun of it but also to visualize the clues I found (or at least I think I found). 

Hope this link works:

If you watch all the episodes with Brett Partridge, he and Jane actually never shook hands.

I think rj is Brett Partridge. If you hear carefully in the promo the voice of the man who said: " the game is over and I won" is exactly the voice Jack Plotnick (Partridge).

Well, at least we'll all know who Rj will be on Sunday night but we'll never find a chance to watch Corrigan playing Kirkland which is priceless. It feels like he was born Kirkland. Bravo!

So here's one for you Brett Partridge fans - have you considered BP is working WITH Patrick Jane to draw Red John out?

RED JOHN, "If there's one thing I can't tolerate, it's cheap imitations of my work."

Partridge and his buddy fake his death. That would explain why the smiley was done differently on Lisbon's face. So RJ would get mad. Then partridge could help Jane stage the deaths of everyone on the list. Lisbon is a terrible liar so she can't be in on it. Cho probably knows the plan. He's the only one who can keep a secret.

Since Haffner showed up at the hospital the next day, it seems like he's RJ, but he wasn't around in the beginning. So I'd rather it be Michael Kirkland.
