i have a little twist on things. i think it would be so cool if grace van pelt ended up being red johns accomplice or something and thats why she joined the CBI. because grace was the last to join the team so maybe she joined to get closer to jane and get info to give to red john. just a little cool theory i had and wanted to put out there. it's highly unlikely, i'm just having a big imagination :D

I saw some theories that some people think it might Be Janes Father. I had an interesting idea hat its possible jane and Red John could be brothers or half brothers. Where is Janes parents anyways? Does anyone know where his father is? Did I miss a clue on the subject?Sometimes I thought at one point Bret stiles might be Red Johns Father.

The guys name who I think is Red John is Brett Partridge in the show. He Cleans up after the crime scenes. He plays in The Pilot Episode S1 E1 and also in S2 E23 Red Sky In The Morning. His Name is Jack Plotnick in real Life. If You watch very carefully at how Jane and Brett interact with eachother it is quite interesting. Its different then with other characters. They both seem to have a very deep disdain for one another which is strange considering they supposedly barely know one another or do they Know eachother and Jane just hasnt caught on yet. Unless its the opposite and brett is working for Jane not just in the CBI but as Janes disciple if Jane ends up being red John. Through all the episodes both scenarios would work as they both would have all the connections they need with the job positions they are in. And since bretts job is so under the radar but so connected to every crime scene it would explain why Red John knows so much. Think about it.

In the episode "Red John's Friends," the Director of the CBI coincidentally leaves "to visit (his) sister in Hawaii" just prior to Red John's murder of the ex-con who at least indirectly knew him. We also found out that Red John has access to the CBI Computer network and can manipulate his way through communications with Patrick and the others. My fiance and I were subsequently thinking that Red John might be the CBI Director. What will need eventually to be explained is who exactly was having "(his) feelings trifled with," the specific context involved and who Patrick himself might think Red John might be. Surely after five years--now six--of agonizing guilt, he remembers in great detail the specifics of the person he was conning and how that person might connect to Red John. Will no doubt be a great television ride...

They had an absent mother and an abusive father plus it will cause a dilemma for jayne later on because Lisbon is his friend.It creates a conflict of him not being able to just go out and kill the guy without a moral dilemma for him.

Red John is Duke, Sherrif Dumars deputy. It looks exactly like him leaving the room where he was holding Rosalinds tea cup. Besides, I doubt he would be far away as all the stuff was happening. I think he is Duke, the guy that got hit by Mace Guthrie.

I'm pretty sure that Patrick jane IS Red john himself.... Think about it , who else can manipulate people into doing things ? and why is he insisting on keeping the red john case to himself?.. If you notice in the episode when jane saves lisbon's life , we can see a cup of tee in front of the monitor where red john was sitting and watching..Is it a coincedence that patrick jane always drinks tee in every episode?..
