LATEST THEORIES

I think it's not possible that Jane and Red John are the same people. First, Jane is shaking hand with Red John. And I don't believe that Jane was joined hand with himself. Also, Lorelei known Red John and when we see her behavious with Jane, Jane can't be Red John.

I think it's Bertram, and Kirkland is his friend... But I think it would be too easy...

I personally think that Red John is somebody that we know, maybe in the background a lot or a regular? I don't think that the writers have fully worked it out yet, they probably have a list of people that it could be, and are just trying to work it out. It can't be Jane, that would just be annoying if it was and I would hope that Lisbon isn't a partner of Red John although would be a good storyline if she was. :)

please stop with accusing JANE! he is not RJ there is way too much evidence pointing towards other people! and it isn't virgil minelli, whoever RJ is, (if he even works in the CBI which i doubt) has been working there since JAne. the only reason he would be in CBI is to keep an eye on Jane. before Jane there wouldn't be any need to. jesus.

I think its Dr Royston Daniel from Season 1 Episode 18. I think its possible he has never actually killed anyone himself but has built up a network of 'agents' through his hypnosis skills thereby providing himself with the perfect alibi.

I also think the whole 'Visualize' thing is just an enormous red herring (pun intended). 

The episode where he appears is quite clever in that it makes him seem weak - he becomes the victim (in our eyes) and is nearly murdered until Patrick Jane saves him but I think that was all an elaborate ruse to get close to the CBI team - I think someone on the team was hypnotized and has been feeding RJ information - probably Van Pelt.

I believe that bp is Red John because he was at the fake red John murders and has a rapid disliking of Patrick Jane also what red John says s2 last ep if there's 1 thing I can't tolerate is the relentless copying of my work how could he know about that if he wasn't red John

Robert Kirkland.
When Bob Kirkland shook hands with Jane, in
background there's a music: it's the beginning of the theme: Your Worst
Nightmare, Red John's theme. Usually, this theme it sounds when RJ
appear or do something.

At the moment we can elimanate the following as Red John



Wayne Rigsby - when Loralie crashed her car in to him in s5e16 she was s angry and wanted to kill RJ if he was RJ then she would have killed him there and then

Patrick jane - Come on its not him so many reason that it is not him one s2e23 how can he be 2 peolpe at once s4e23 how can he be having a comversation with him self its not
him

Bertram and Kirkland - I beleive they are acomplices of RJ not RJ him self

Alex Jane - why would you shake hands with you dad and then be best friends with him

Vanpalt' Hightower' Lisbon' Shettrick' Harker' Frye' Darcy and Shultz - all are female and all of Red Johns acomplices that get caught refer to him as a HE and that he loves them and sttufe he has to be a guy unless they have all been lyeing

Brett Stiles - could be him but i reckon way to obveous

Angela jane ruskin - jane saw her body and said that her toenails were painted with her owen blood so she is dead  



Thats all I can think of at the moment but there are defintly more really that leaves us
Cho' Ron' Minalli' Laroche' Ardilles' Halfner' and then the other few peolpe that come and go kinda thing personly I think it is Minalli as in season 5 episode 5 where it shows jane as he first begins at cbi ande he wants the Red John files but theyc ant just give them to who ever wnats them so Minalli as RJ wants Jane to have them so comes up with a plan you renember the other cop that was there i cant renember his name who walked to the elevator with Jane then Jane pissed him off and the other guy punched Jane in the face renember?

Then they took him in sat him down and Manalli especaly was concerned about him presing charges i think thats right  well what if the other cop was an acomplice of RJ (Minalli). then Minalli told him to get Jane angry and to punch him so that they could give him the RJ files as like a gift for his word that he wont press charges as he wanted Jane to try and catch him what do you think ?
