LATEST THEORIES

Firstly a few people are throwing around the Ellis mars theory. While it is a good one, Jane never actually shakes   
hands with him, therefore it cannot be him.
Secondly is we are to believe Kirkland is RJ ( possibly ) an episode outline saying he is asking Jane about RJ does not mean that he isn't. Because he along with Homeland and the FBI are investigating the RJ case he has every right to ask Jane what he knows. Also if Loriali was killed then RJ knows Jane is getting closer to him. So Kirkland may very wel be asking him to see how much he knows and what lose ends need to be cut.
Also IMDB has put up that there is a season 6. meaning that Kirkland is more likely an associate of RJ and not in fact RJ himself. In my opinion it is impossible to tell who RJ is because even if Jane has met him, we might not have. sidenote.. the flashback episode was there for a reason.. Jane shakes 3 peoples hands... the Judge who asks Jane if he has kids then says, if you want to hurt a man kill his family, second person is virgil the 3rd is Lisbon.  I think the shaking hands thing has more to it. Because RJ would have loved shaking Janes hand. For him it would have been pure ecstasy for him. It cannot be Jane, on the fact that he would never kill Loriali.

RJ IS NOT ROBERT KIRKLAND. And you can safely say he isn't a friend of RJ either. Go to the mentalist season 5 on wikipedia; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mentalist_%28season_5%29 and look at the episode 19 information it says; "While the CBI investigates a murder at a Wild West theme park, an
inquisitive Kirkland presses Jane for information about Red John."
Why would he ask about info on RJ if he's supposedly RJ's accomplice? The reason he is asking Jane for information is because he too is also trying to capture RJ.

Red john Isnt real. He's probably a bad dream Patrick has before he goes on that talking show talking about him. He thinks everything is real in his dream but it's not.
Red john is out there still but he didn't kill his family. He never met him. Say plausible . Cause this might be through

i think brett partridge is redjohn because anytime its a copycat of redjohn hes there. and also the second time they meet, he says "jerk" when he walked out of the room which i thought that that meant that redjohn still dosnt forgive patrick jane for talking badly about him on tv. There both trying to seek revenge. brett has the same voice in the last episode of the second seris.
i have a second theorie about gale bertrim he likes william blake so does redjohn coincidence or not. tiger tiger burning bright in the forests of the night ..... by william blake ..... i hope all of ye think my theorie is right.red john is creepy and always will be

Robert kirkland is not RJ, I think he is somehow connected to lorelei/her sister thats why he appears when lorelei dies, he kills lennon for personal vengeance and he is out looking for RJ, this is why when he meets jane he says "no but I know you" because he knows about janes commitment to get RJ
