Hi, before all, I want to say that I don't know who Red John is, but I just want to expose a theory: I've been reading some theories that say that the Lorelei's death was a fake, and it sounded perfectly probable to me. Now, assuming this is true, I started to wonder, and I remembered the episode (I don't remember wich one) when Patrick puts a little thing in the door to check if anyone entered. Later, he founds it on the floor, so, someone entered. Patrick suspected that guys from Homeland Security,or someone connected to Red John (I take as a fact that Kirkland works for Red John) was going to break into his "apartment", that's why he put the "thing"(sorry, I don't know how it's called) in the door.  Now, here is my theory: Patrick, who suspected they were going to enter to his apartment, prepairs everything for the Red John's "disciples" , to find, even a false list with 7 suspects, without RJ's name on it. This way, RJ thinks he is one step ahead of Patrick, when he actually is behind him. In case Red John isn't on the list, I don't know who would be, but I know (I think, actuallty) that  Patrick ISN'T RJ, and the same for Teresa, Rigsby, or any team member.
The thing that "destroys" my theory , is Bruno Heller saying that Red John is one of the 7 suspects on the list. In that case, my main suspect would be Partridge, but i'm not sure anyway
Still, I can't find out how he knew about Patrick's memory, it just creeps me out, haha.
Well, I believe  I don't have anything else to say.
And sorry if my writing is not that goos, English isn't my mother language, thank you.

What are the odds that Lorelai didn't go to RJ and came back to Patrick after shooting Lennon, gave him  a clue about RJ or told him who RJ is and then for some reason Patrick made a plan to fake Lorelai's death and the video? (maybe in order to test/mislead Lisbon because RJ is someone working at the CBI really close to both of them).

Why do i think this? Well first of all, Lorelai's death scene didn't seem as RJ, there was not cut, the RedFace seemed weird, then this will be explain how "RJ" knows in the video the seven names and Patrick's happy memory and then the most weird clue is the chair that is used in the video: it's the same chair that we saw in every interrogation room at the CBI (i don't think this is random). The chair brings out 2 posibilities: Red John works/has access to the CBI Building or Patrick Jane made the video.

It's Sheriff Thomas McAllister!  Patrick and him did shake hands in the form of rock, paper, scissors.
If you are going to watch some very important episodes like Rebecca's poisoning and the plot to get rid of Hightower both have one common denominator - a county police. The guy who poisoned Rebecca was indeed McAllister. Of course, no one would suspect the sheriff because only a few knew who he was. Remember Todd? He was also a county police, and don't forget about the guy who kidnapped Jane in Season 1.
This one is a very strong evidence: In the Red Hair and Silver Tape episode, when Van Pelt was about to be harassed, Rigsby stepped in and pushed McAllister. Out of the blue, a police car with its siren, suddenly came speeding towards them(probably one of RJ's friends). Same police car came running in front of Patrick and Lisbon. 

And the " He is Mar" thing ----- Red John planted that cipher to taunt Patrick. It's simply part of: sHEriff thomAs McAllisteR.
Did you guys notice on the season 5 finale --- only the McAllister was given a distinction. Lorelai clearly read his name as " Sheriff Thomas McAllister". The rest were mentioned by their names. Lorelai could have mentioned Director Gale Bertram, or Special Agent Ray Haffner, see the difference?
Maybe the "i" in the He is Mar is not an "i" but a "t". Mind games!

The rock,paper, scissors is one way for RJ to get intimate with Patrick. Lastly, being a county sheriff is a great cover. I'll leave you guys with this Sherlock Holmes quote: 
 "Do you know, Watson," said he, "that it is one of the curses of a mind with a turn like mine that I must look at everything with reference to my own special subject. You look at these scattered houses, and you are impressed by their beauty. I look at them, and the only thought which comes to me is a feeling of their isolation and of the impunity with which crime may be committed there."

Not accusing anyone, just pointing something out: if you have the curiosity to rewatch episode 1 from season 2, in the opening scene when Jane is interrogating the people from the store where a man was killed, at minute 2.21 he asks a man "You, your name!", and he sais "REEDE". Then, few seconds later, he speaks with that intitled women, Mandy Schultz, who says that her husband, "JOHN" is a very important man. I`m not paranoid to think that they know something about Red John, but, still, how weird is that? Honestly, it is just fascinating :D
