Every time I see Stiles and James Earl Jones in the Sprint commercials I think he should have been RJ. I'm not upset like others but he is a great character actor

"He is Mar" is an "Easter Egg" for the viewers, not a clue for Patrick Jane.

I noticed awhile back that there was no middle line to make the 'H" in "He," so the first part actually reads 'IIe'.  I never bought in too much that a dying person would bother to write "who is" so I figured it must be an address (ie. Apartment 2e, 15 Martin St.), or a Bible verse (ie. 2nd chapter Mark, verse 15), or a reference to a file number, work of William Blake or a date (ie. 15th of March/Ides of March).

But...

After the McAllister reveal, I had a hunch and went back and looked at his episode.  It is episode 2 (Roman numeral II), so that explains the IIe (2 episode).  But what about the rest, it isn't "is mar(s), is Mashburn, is many, or any of the others." It should be read 15 Mar(k), as in 15 second mark (using Mar instead of Sec or even spelling out Mark because it would have been too easily solvable, it makes sense to be cryptic with an Easter egg, not if you are a dying character giving an honest hint).

Exactly 15 seconds (not roughly, but exactly 15 seconds) after the title sequence fades out the camera pans and McAllister's face enters the shot.

That would support Heller's prior statements saying he knew who Red John was from day one, possibly he backed off of that so newer characters seemed more plausible to be considered for Red John?

. “The end of Red John is a moment the fans wanted to see, but for many different reasons,” Baker told TV Guide. “Some just want it to be over. They’re, like, ‘Enough, already! http://redjohnisdead.wordpress.com/2013/11/30/www-whoisredjohn-com/

Is it so hard to understand that it's "would have" or "would've" instead of "would of"? Are some people just not able to use their brains or what's wrong with them? This is just so annoying. I mean what are you thinking when you type this? I fear that some of you are even native english speakers... I don't want to offend someone, but before you try to figure out who red john is with your "masterminds", you should rather try to understand the english grammar. I am from germany and I know that I make grammar mistakes too but this "would of" thing is just another way of saying "hey read my theory, I'm an extraordinary stupid person but I figured out who Red John really is!!!11"

No way in hell Macalister is red john.
And if he is, than there is a person bigger than red john controlling it all!

No way macalister after janes "breakdown" could offer him a new life. What could the sheriff offer him? He isnt styles or kristina frye and cannot offer him salvation in any way, hes just a guy with power. RED JOHN DOES NOT FEAR DEATH!! He doesn't believe in hell as we know.

Macalister runs tiger tiger what would he offer jane, a tattoo ? He told patrick he can give him a new identity. Reede smith didn't get a new identity when he joined.
Red john wants to turn patrick. He wants him as a "disciple" as jane says . Brett styles is alive . He is red john. Van pelt is his niece or a follower . Jane knows all of this too. Its a long chess match.
Styles told patrick he is dying but we all know styles NEEDS to resurrect like jesus after his death. Macalister pulled styles out of the house before the bomb.
Styles will not appear to the world because he will be arrested for faking his death . He will do it in church with only a few watching to spread the word . Jane will be there . He will get the info from van pelt somehow .

HELLER ONLY RUSHED THE FIRST 8 EPISODES TO GET THEM OVER WITH. IF MACALISTER WAS RED JOHN THEN HELLER WOULD of MADE THAT THE SEASON FINALE!!!

There is no way the private investigator was murdered to keep quiet! SHE WAS LEFt ALIVE ON PURPOSE!!! Why would red john let her live long enough to tell pj about the tattoo? How could she of seen the tattoo!!! If red john was silencing her he would of killed her quick with his knife . Simple as that.

Partridge said "red john has not killed in years" and he's right . Macalister was posing as red john and maybe with the help of partridge too. But the REAL Red john will be revealed soon. Very soon.
