LATEST THEORIES

Macalister is NOT red john #8271895

I was watching the ep with Kirkland describing his brothers past. How he was an alcoholic and was saved by a man.
Why would the leader of an organization change a young alcoholics life and recruit him if he has every lawyer and cop under his control? The Ba didn't have civilians that offer nothing.
Macalister does not seem like a guru type right ?

Listen you can tell me that Red John is dead and maybe your right but there is with a doubt in my mind another villain who is pulling the strings.

Side note: why would cbi appoint bosco to the rj case then kill him? Why not just remove the evidence he was on too? Very weird. Was bosco Ba?
Was anyone Ba before season 6? Lorelie definitely was not Ba and never mentioned them.
And if Lorelie was looking for red john to see if he killed her sister why not look into the ba too?
She never stood trial for her crimes or a pre trial and the fbi was obsessed with her yet Kirkland NEVER QUESTIONED her!

Brett Partridges first words on screen: Red John enters here. 
Really?
You have someone, who would have been the perfect Red John and then you kill him off with no reason. Partridge would be the perfect Red John. It would have been great, if he was revealed as RJ in 6x8, followed by an Mind Game betweetn him and PJ, like between Sherlock and Moiarty. 
Season 7 will be either the worst, with Love and happy live nonsens or maybe they will bring back some tention. 
Still hoping for the Real Red John Reveal, 

A true fan

Please answer the following two questions;
1-) Anybody that Brett Partridge died? (except from Lisbon)
2-) Anybody that saw Brett Partridge's corpse and his tatto?

You know, most of Patrick's "tricks" would not hold up in court in a billion years. If you apply logic from a show which respects the rule of court like Law and order SVU, then most of the cases Patrick solved would have failed to stand in court. The accused are entitled to a not say a word....... but somehow Cho get's them to spill everything out when there is minimal evidence to prove anything.   Also, have you ever noticed the lack of forensic presence in the CBI? We never saw a coroner once nor was a case ever solved based on forensic evidence alone............ I'm not trying to put this show down nor am i complaining or ranting, but Heller never used logic when it came to "the mentalist".

season 7 starts 3 years after season 6 ended.  lisbon has retired to stay at home with their little one.  jane and cho are checking out a body that was found in a dumpster outside of a nudist colony.  fischer is still useless except for a single observation she pulled off the internet about how nudist colonies are usually full of ugly people but the victim was actually a former male model.  wiley uses his ninja computer skills to uncover the fact that the colony is actually a low budget nude reality webshow based on the Big Brother style.  PJ eventually roots out the killer by temporarily joining the colony and realizing that the only person in the community that would make eye contact before giving a "full body" visual examination would be the person with something to hide.  all the while abbot just smirks and acts like PJ's little games are acceptable ways to draw out  a killer and will definintely hold up in court.  after cho gives his fail proof interrogation technique of asking "so, why'd you do it" while staring straight through the suspect and into their soul,  they admit that they had to do it, because size really does matter.  the show ends with a fully clothed PJ walking into a silent house and finding a note taped to the outside of the bedroom door......

I have a theory that will answer all of our doubts.
Bruno Heller threw random clues around which he couldn't put together even if he wanted to......... as the clues piled up, it reached a point where things got out of hand and he ended everything in an instant to cover up the fact of what a fucking failure he is as a producer and writer.

I want Red John back but all hope died when the season finale had only that idiotic love crap as a main story.

Question to those who been around this forum from before the Season 6 episode 8 aired:
Was McAllister back then also positioned # 2 on the list of suspects or there was a surge of votes for him after the reveal?

Right now, as it stands Partridge has 1894 suspicions and McAllister has 1623.
