LATEST THEORIES

Heller wants us off track.
Yet there are several things that could be big clues but because of there simplicity we can hardly see the forest for the trees.

I suspect Wayne Rigsby. Why?

1. He speaks Spanish. - The use of Y in "Tyger, Tyger"
2. Most of RJ's victims are women. - He acts awkwardly in front of women
3. His dad Steve Rigsby is a member of IRON Gods Motorcycle Gang and stayed in prison in Lompoc, the same prison as Jared Renfrew & Orville Tanner's.
4. He looks like the man in photo killing Carter Peak. (Am I really the only one noticed it at first glance?)
5. He was the sort of character whom you expect the least being RJ & he's been there from the very first episode.
6. He likes Grace Van Pelt who has red hair.
7. He is the 3rd man whom GVP fell in love with: 1st the madman outside the CBI and 2nd this madman O'laughlin & then there's Rigsby. (could be RJ - a madman too)
8. He imitates Patrick for a couple of times.
9. He pretends to be naive - perhaps really a good actor, our man RJ.
10. Last but not the least, according to Sophie Mille, RJ's a good whistle blower.. Does nobody ever remember in the Season 2 episode 2: Scarlet Letter there is this scenario:



"The Mentalist: The Scarlet Letter (#2.2)" (2009)


Kimball Cho
: If she's a jumper, job's done.
Wayne Rigsby: Yeah. The senator's husband dumps her, she wants to make him feel bad
[Rigsby whistles]
Wayne Rigsby: splat.
Grace Van Pelt: Don't talk that way.
Wayne Rigsby: Okay not splat, bam.



Rosalind Harker's description of RJ could be misleading.

Rigsby's young but we never know the other side of the story.

And I can hardly recall there is this episode when Rigsby seems to have a phobia over something.. Gonna search for it.

I continue with my theory Sheriff Rj   Dr. said that whistling good, well Haffner whistle, but not very well... at the end is the that whistling Sheriff gives to think many things but highlights a tidbit Bertram had said that they had a private meeting Jane refers to as to Sheriff,, Sheriff mcAllister and the sheriff say Tom also answers the great confidence. The Sheriff tells details of operation in the zone . see the scene 4 times remembered an important detail of RJ that when you open the door the first thing you see is your smile and drawing Jane opened the room the first thing you see is the Sheriff

Why Red John did not kill Lisbon? in Episode 6x02 Ray said that he likes Lisbon very much and he hopes to have a future with her. In my opinion Red John didn't kill Lisbon because he loves her, so does Ray. Furthermore Red John is a Member of Visualize, Ray too. Red John worked on the Allistor Farm, Ray too. Sophie Miller's notes says Red John is a good whistle blower, so does Ray.

Everyone keeps saying heller confirmed this and that just like in season 6 he is using the whistling to throw you off. As far as the list it is a fake he would not tell lisbon the truth when has he ever the list is fake pj would not leave it sitting in his room especially if he knew someone was going to steal it rj thinks and believes these are the final suspects that jane might think but I bet he has either his own mental (in his head list or an extra person he left off) the list is to make rj kill the suspects off one by one so pj can catch him in the act do you honestly believe that heller would give you such an easy clue like having haffner and mcallister whistle remember rj is waldo a bird that flies from nest to nest looking from a far none of these men do that kirkland has a right to be in the cbi office, bertram, smith, the only ones out of place would be mcallister haffner stiles and bertram the list is to weed out rj and that is what is going to happen as a theory I would love to see van pelt rigsby cho lisbon ron manelli or even jane be rj that would be like wow did not see that coming the list is for entertainment and to mentally make you think about these 7 people and forget about everyone else just my theory

Hey guys i am not convinced patrick is red jonn but i noticed something different in season 6 episode 2
when patrick is sitting with lisbon on the park bench he cant take his eyes of the pigeons and when she asks to leave he says no and looks worried, but patrick is completly ruled out because his psychitrist would of noticed him unless he got an actor to go in for him and talk to her.

Tyger Tyger is another occult group  that has fallen out from the Visualize group.
From reading William Blakes poem we can see that Visualize is like the lamb element whilst Tyger Tyger is the more fierce and dangerous Tiger.(both good and evil)
The group consists of the 7 suspects hence the the term He is mar - which means He is Many.
