Red John is not a single individual, but it is in fact a cult of sorts. Patrick Jane may or may not be a member.

This is not really a good theory about who is Red John, It's more about the relationship between Kirkland, Bertram, Reede Smith, McAllister and Darcy.
I think that they all think Jane is Red John (for some good reason, I hope), remember, Darcy says something about it in 4 season.
Kirkland is watching Jane since he became a CBI consultant. So, Kirkland called this "time" to keep an eye on Patrick.
But we all know that Jane is not Red John.
I think Red John is Thomas McAllister. He is taken out from suspects by not having fear of heights at the end of the episode, but he is afraid of pigeons. In S06E02 we learned some things about Red John, including that he may have a fear of heights and can whistles really good, all those things have been explored, but not the pigeons. They appear in the first episode of this season and has not yet been cited by Jane or anyone besides. Still in S06E02 the camera focuses in the hands of this strange lady who is feeding the birds.
I believe that Sheriff Thomas McAllister is cheating with Kirkland and all others.
I also believe that there is an important role for Bret Stiles, there must be a reason why he has been included in the list of suspects: Shortly before the list episode , we learned that Red John is a middle-aged man, who had less than 30 in 1988, in addition, Stiles does not match the Rosalind description.
I am Brazilian, and I don't speak english, so i don't know if I made myself clear. If you can't understand something, please comment and i try to write better. And I'm sorry if someone posted some theory like mine before, i never see one similar.
PEOPLE, YOU HERE RATHER BELIEVE THE FACT THAT BRETT PARTRIDGE IS ALIVE AND IGNORE ALL EVIDENCE THAT YOU HAVE ON PJ BEING RJ..I AM ASKING YOU WHAT EVIDENCE DO YOU HAVE THAT BP IS ALIVE? NONE..IF SOMEONE WRITES SOMETHING ABOUT PJ, BAM! UNLIKE, DISLIKE...BLA BLA...AND YOUR BEST DEFENSE IS WHAT HELLER SAID....
HELLER SAID A LOT OF THINGS AND AMONG THEM IS ALSO THAT BRETT PARTRIDGE IS DEAD, BUT YOU KEEP ON WRITING LIKE HE IS NOT SO I WILL WRITE PJ IS RJ EVEN IF AT THE END OF IT ALL HE IN FACT ISNT RJ BECAUSE THERE ARE CLUES STRONGER THAN ALL THE CLUES WE CAN PUT TOGETHER SO FAR THAT PJ IS RJ THAN FOR EVERY SUSPECT ON THE LIST...
I WATCHED THE FILM BLOODY VALENTINE ( STARRING JENSEN ACKLES) WHERE THE PLOT WAS ALL ABOUT ONE KILLER WHO WAS KILLING EVERYONE...THE DIRECTOR DID SUCH A GOOD JOB THAT ALL THE TIME I WAS CHEERING FOR ACKLES GETTING ALIVE OUT IT ALL BUT AT THE END HET WAS THE KILLER WITH 2 PERSONALITIES....HE TRAPPED HIMSELF, WAS EVEN WOUNDED IF I REMEMBER BY HIMSELF AND ALL THE TIME I WAS BLAMING THE OTHER "MYSTERIOUS" GUY WHO SAVED THE DAY AT THE END...OR DIED AMONG THE WAY :D I DONT REMEMBER...
PARTRIDGE DEAD THAN ALIVE WOULD NOT BE A BRILLIANT PLAN RJ MADE TO GET OFF THE SUSPECT LIST FOR ME AND IT WOULDNT BE A BRILLIANT PLAN MADE BY HELLER TO KEEP HIM OF THE HOOK.....
FOR SO FAR I CAN ONLY SEE THAT ALL THE RJ SUSPECT ARE GETTING OF THE HOOK ONE BY ONE....PARTRIDGE,SHERIFF,KIRKLAND BUT I CAN SEE THAT WE ARE SEEING MORE OF STUFF WE DIDNT KNOW ABOUT JANE......AND NEXT WEEK WE WILL SEE EVEN MORE ABOUT JANE...WHY IS HELLER GETTING US SO CLOSE TO PJ ALL THE SUDDEN...ISNT HIS JOB NOW TO GET US THE FACTS ABOUT RJ AND GETTING US CLOSE TO RJ, NOT JANE?
AND YES, SOMEONE WILL DIE FROM THE LIST IN THE NEXT EPISODE (PROMO) SO THAT LEAVES US WITH WHAT? 3 MORE SUSPECTS..
I DONT THINK RJ WILL KILL ALL OF THEM BESIDE HIMSELF AND THEN GO TO PJ AND SAY "HONEY IM HOME" :D
I DONT BELIEVE THAT THE LIST OF 7 THAT IS STOLEN HAS THE NAME OF RED JOHN AND I HONESTLY THINK THAT THE SECOND LIST DOESNT EXIST
AND YES, UNTIL I READ SOMEWHERE THAT HELLER SAID PATRICK IS NOT RED JOHN AND RED JOHN IS NOT PATRICK I WILL STAND FOR THIS THEORY
IF SOMEONE ELSE TURNS TO BE RED JOHN I WOULD LIKE THAT ALLOT, BUT NOT SOMEONE PREDICTABLE....IT WOULD BE COOL:)
AND IF SOMEONE FROM THE LIST OR EVEN BP ENDS UP TO BE RJ I WILL RESPECT THAT AND I WILL RESPECT AS I DID IT SO FAR ALL THE PEOPLE WITH THEIR THEORIES, JUST TO SAY THIS I DIDNT PUT ONE SINGLE UNLIKE ON YOUR THEORIES BECAUSE EVERYONE HERE PUT AN EFFORT TO WRITE HIS THEORY AND HAD GIVEN SOME OF HIS TIME TO PROVE US ALL SOMETHING EVEN IF ITS WRONG MAYBE, EVEN IF IT WAS PURE GUESSING...:)
AND THIS IS FOR SIMON BAKER AND HELLER IF THEY EVER READ THIS :)
SIMON DONT LET HELLER MAKE YOU RJ :) WE LOVE YOU JUST AND ONLY LIKE JANE! :)
Based on the promo for next week's episode, I think RJ's next victim will be Sheriff Thomas McCallister. It looks like his body on the ground. If PJ made up a fake list of 7 suspects, Kirkland may be torturing PJ to get the real list of suspects.
Red John is actually an acronym for:
R Rigsby
E Edna Kinders(from season 2, episode 5)
D Dean Harken
J Jane
O Oscar Ardiles
H Hightower, Madeline
N Nathan Brown(a suspect in season 1, episode 3)
Red John is a collective group of these seven people.
I have seen Bruno Heller previously stating to media that Red John is not a one person. (When season 3 or 4 running)
May be there is no Red John. It must be a criminal organization with psychopaths.
A single person cannot do such accurate killings with such precision.
May be all 7 suspects are connected to this :o
I think if the 7 suspect list is correct, then it can be narrowed down to 3 people.
Red John shouldn't be:
Sheriff McAllister because he saved Jane the last episode by climbing the ladder onto the roof (not acrophobic, maybe),
Reed Smith is too large according to the way Rosalind Harker describes RJ,
Bob Kirkland is seen in the preview of the next episode (Red Listed) as torturing Jane for the real list of RJ suspects. RJ already knows the list of Jane's suspects, and
Brett Partridge is dead.
Obviously all of my reasoning could be wrong and it is just RJ's way of throwing us off his trail...
for example Brett Partridge could be alive and be the one that tazered Lisbon, who knows.
Did anyone catch Sophie Miller's (Jane's psychologist) patient named something 'Washburn'. Remember Walter Mashburn? silly coincidences like that are made to confuse and annoy us, haha.
I strongly think it is Bret Stiles, but I definitely think that Red John is someone who has strong feelings for Lisbon (making his smiley on her face). Someone like Ray, who stopped by her hospital bed. I haven't watched the older seasons but I also think that Bertram and Stiles liked Lisbon, too. The other 4 suspects don't/didn't have any relationship with her...
So there you go. Bret Stiles, Ray Haffner, Gale Bertram
