If you think Macalister is red john thats just fine. If you think he is red john and want to read opposing theory's that is great. But why come to this site whoisredjohn.com if you want to simply make fun of people who think something else is going on?
If your so sure of yourself that Macalister is red john why just rehash what actually happened on the show? We all saw episode 8. Yea we all know Macalister was red john for that single episode . We don't need to be reminded .

But people on this site have A LOT of great theory's and clues that show that Macalister MAY not be red john. Respect them.
And if bruno heller made a great show for 5 seasons why would you assume that he automatically started to suck?
You really think it is LOGICAL that the highest rated tv program in the WORLD would just make up clues for fun? Thats a silly way of thinking don't you think?
If Macalister was red john don't you think the show would discuss it a little more ? They have been so hush hush about everything that transpired at Patricks house and after.
They are being secretive because were are getting ready for a bomb filled with surprises ! Tick tick tock

Stoopkid, I dont get why you try so much to keep the discussion on the RJ on the surface so freakin bad? Everybody made their comment and good, but you.., i dont know it just seems something wrong with your input on this site. Not hating, just sayin.

The mentalist is such a great show becuase it makes people swear that they know who red john is . Whether its me with gvp and rigsby, partridge people, kirkland fans etc we all swear we know or knew we were right .
Heller made it that way on purpose. Everyone is a suspect even patrick jane !

Back to linus wagner. I think people are on to something with him. I dont think he is red john but knows him very well. He coulda had his colleague tannen killed by a hitman when he was alone.
Instead wagner says he wanted to kill him and the girl to create diversion bc cops would be swarming his work otherwise? Umm the cops did swarm his place anyway right
Maybe this was a two man job.
Wagner gave red john the girl as wagner took care of tannen.
Maybe tannen knew something else that got him killed.
Tannen who was a plastic surgeon could have done work on red john and found his identity or something along those lines who knows.
It is very odd wagner killed a man with his bare hands becuase that man found out wagner was stealing money to feed African children. Even weirder that tomothy carter arived in the usa out of thin air in 2008 from africa as a missionary.

Also completely different clue:
When minelli makes that epic speach to the media when he calls the reporters questions horses assery, you can notice right after he speaks to lisbon that he then talks to craig olaughlin. It looks like craig and its only a split second where minelli looks his way then the camera goes onto olaughlin .
I have no idea why, just throwing it out there.

Theory #17031 • By MissStiles
Show this theory

One last attempt to convince all the stubborn people who STILL think McAllister wasn't Red John. This feels like talking to kindergarten children..

McAllister was absolutely terrified of dying. All he had to do was tell Patrick Jane the truth (that he wasn't RJ) and he could have lived (which McAllister wanted more than anything).
Jane is not stupid, he would have believed him if he started telling the truth. McAllister could have saved himself. He didn't, because he is Red John. He knew Patrick knows it, he knew there is no point of denying it.

If anyone doesn't understand that, then you have the mental age of a child.

I don't care if I get 30 dislikes, just use your logic and common sense people! Peace.:)

It is bob kirkland because I watched the episode where Patrick Jane met Red John for the first time
and I wrote all the name of the actors who played in the episode and the name of the actor who played Bob Kirkland was in there but what strange was is that you didn't saw him in this very episode 
so that's why it is Bob Kirkland that is Red John

Hi guys..the Red John ending and the shows new direction, is seriously depressing me right now and there's only one thing that could save the show for me. Bring HIM back!!! Here's some food for thought...Thomas McAllister went to Brett Partridge to copy his DNA, well what if Bret Stiles and/or Ray Haffner also done this. Stiles was by far the most interesting and charismatic character, with the best background story eg Visualize etc, but is boringly killed and straight away forgotten about, mentioned maybe only once or twice? If RJ/McAllister was a member of Visualize would he so willingly kill his god like figure like that? I reaallly hope he is brought back and we get a Jane VS Stiles battle in the finale AND we actually get answers with some history and flashbacks. At this point I'd even settle for the people's choice, Brett Partridge, rather than the pathetic, balding sheriff who is terrified of pigeons, phones 911 and is that stupid he even has an incriminating tattoo, which he somehow reveals to a person who could identify him!?!
A good storyline, I think, would be to have the Rigsbys working on a Visualize case and to stumble upon evidence that Stiles/Haffner is still alive. Or what if we see Grace secretly meeting Bret, the great mind behind the RJ persona and her boss the whole time, and they begin plotting another elaborate plan to torment Patrick once again. Also, one final point is I thought Kirkland was a brilliant character this season, and the whole twin twist would have made a really interesting storyline, but no, the writers just seemed to give up and lost their imaginations after this episode... Please Bruno, don't leave it this way!!!!

Linus Wagner was present at the beginning of season 1.  He impersonated Red John to commit his murder.  Why didn’t RJ murder him or have him murdered by one of his followers?  RJ had the ability to get at his victims in all different types of circumstances and does not tolerate insults.  Jane went back to visit Wagner so we know he’s alive.  What’s their (RJ and LW) relationship and why is he still alive?  Probably not RJ, but why is he still alive?
