partridge and kirkland are not in list of actors. Strange, no? for me, ALL OF 5 REMAINING SUSPECTS ARE RED JOHN. RJ looks to me more like a society than one person only. The 5 remaining suspects complete each other to form the being RJ. sry for the bad english!
So Red John is middle aged
So we can rule Stiles out and McAllister as i cant see any body calling McAllister middle aged
(https://twitter.com/mentalistwriter/status/114530384280158208) on the 16th of september 2011 the writers said that Red John has been visable in prior episodes and season 4 hadnt started by then so that eliminated Smith Kirkland (who i belive will die in nxt episode anyway) and Halfner (:( )
leaving us with 2 suspects Bertram and Partridge of cause Partridge is dead but there is that possibility he could be alive you never know what Brunno has up his sleve
so that would make Red John Bertram now I was pretty dissapointed when i figured this out I really thought it could have been Halfner so what i think has happened is Halfner and/or mayby Smith and Kirkland have appeared in the background of preveous episodes as the writers said you have to look for him like waldo
What do you guys think :)
Writer:
Tom Szentgyorgyi has written or co-written 12 episodes.Most of the episodes are significant and focus on Red John. He wrote the first two episodes featuring Haffner. [He also wrote the origins episode with Kirkland, but I believe Kirkland will no longer be a suspect after the upcoming episode.]
Tyger Tyger:
The poem is about an unimaginablly evil beast that was created. RJ is the beast.
Visualize is the creator. Haffner is a member of Visualize and has been
ever since he was a
teenager when he was a maladjusted and distressed boy.
He insists the cult helped him.
Visualize, likely unknowingly, helped Haffner become a well-adjusted serial killer.
[Probably just a coincidence: The poem was written by a British author. There's one British suspect.
Lisbon:
Haffner and Lisbon have some sort of past, which could be nothing unusual, but could be RJ trying to get close to the closest person to Jane.
Psychiatrist's Profile:
Haffner and Kirkland are the best matches for the profile.
Reed is a stretch since he is not very fit.
Stiles, Bertrem, and McAllister are too old.
Ok so here it is,
Before Jane answers the phone(in season 6 episode 1) he talks to Ron and he ask him if he has seen Lisbon and if you look closely Ron has a phone in his hand and when Jane turns his back he gets a call from "Lisbon' but its red john. So I think it was Ron who called him because when red john says sorry Jane she cant answer right now he has his 2 hands busy one holding the knife and the other one cleaning it. That scene happened before the call. Heller is just trying to confuse us. He wants us think to think its not Ron but it is! He called Jane right in front of us!
Thanks :)
I'M ACTUALLY STRESSING OUT OVER READING THESE THEORIES! I DO NOT GET WHAT PEOPLE READ OR WATCH? DO PEOPLE REALLY THINK PARTRIDGE IS ALIVE??? ANOTHER THING. I KEEP HEARING MARSHALL McALISTER??? HE IS NOT A MARSHALL??? HE IS A SHERIFF. MARSHALLS ARE PEOPLE WHO ESCORT PRISONERS. WHAT IS SO DIFFICULT ABOUT THIS? RED JOHN IS SHERIFF McALISTER. I WILL POST THIS FOR THE FINAL TIME. RED JOHN HAD TO MAKE HIS APPEARANCE IN SEASON #1 BECAUSE THEY SCRIPT WAS WRITTEN AS IF THE SEASON WOULD NOT RENEWED. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER ORVILLE TANNER? RED JOHN WAS AROUND THE SAME AGE. IT HAS TO BE McALLISTER. LAST THING. WATCH STRAWBERRIES & CREAM. WATCH THE GUY IN THE RED SHIRT WITH BLACK STRIPES WEARING A HAT TALKING TO THE GIRL AT THE COFFEE STAND. HE ALWAYS HAS HIS BACK TURNED. YOU WILL SEE HIM 7X. WATCH IT CAREFULLY. TIMOTHY CARTER LOOKS AT HIM 2X. ONCE WHEN HE GETS THE CALL AND ANOTHER AFTER HE TURNS TO LEAVE JANE. ALSO WATCH AFTER CARTER IS SHOT. LOOK AT THE LAST PERSON TO RUN BY. ITS McALLISTER. WATCH CAREFULLY. TRUST ME. THIS WAS PLANNED LONG AGO.
I am fairly confident that Brett Partridge is Red John. He was there from the beginning, which I feel is crucial to the story and he is on the list of suspects.
Everyone knows how Red John likes to use artistry and "The Tyger" poem. After hearing that Partridge was dead, it immediately made me think of "And Then There Were None" by Agatha Christie. For those of you that haven't read it, its basically about 10 people trapped on an island and each of them die one by one until there are none left so the police couldn't figure out who the murderer was.
This might also answer why he calls himself Red John, because the murderer in the novel is Justice Lawrence JOHN Wargrave whose death is described in the poem as "Four little Soldier Boys going out to sea; A RED herring swallowed one and then there were three." A red herring is something that basically misleads you from the truth. In the novel, the judge faked his own death to remove any suspicion that it was him. I believe that Partridge did the same thing. It seems like a perfect parallel type of artistry that Red John would use. I believe Jane will go through the list of 7, eliminating each suspect until there are none left. But actually Partridge is still alive, hence the red herring.
Of course I could be wrong and it could be a complete coincidence.
My original pick for RJ was Minelli, but since the release of the list, (assuming its real...not so sure!), I've been a McCallister girl. I LOVE Xander Berkeley - he's great. I also love the idea of Rock, Paper, Scissors as the handshake (each literally shakes his fist, then lays out RPS. ) So clever, plus it was on screen, plus it was the kind of playful battle of wits RJ would be interested in. Plus, McCallister is a potentially charming character and I love the idea of RJ being established early in the series. Adds such "symmetry" to the series.
So many great theories recently have discussed the many clues hinting at McCallister. I'll add to the mix...maybe he is mar...he is Marshall McCallister...unfinished! yes! but Marshall is another title for sherriff. The Tyger, Tyger puzzle piece is tougher to explain. I can only imagine that the symmetry here lies in their background, perhaps. Was RJ a victim of parental abuse, a kid who was raised in foster homes...or maybe RJ was a victim of a crime pre-Red Barn that turned him into a killer, or is the symmetry simply that by killing PJs family, RJ is turning PJ into a killer (like him)? Because PJ is certainly still emphatically stating his intent to kill RJ. That's certainly symmetry.
Other predictions:
PJ will not kill RJ, but Lisbon will.
Hightower is back in the picture because of some kind of pressure...possibly someone swipes her kid
Kirkland is a victim of RJ and has considered PJ to be a legit suspect for nine years...hence the surveillance by Homeland.
Kirkland will be killed
One or both of the newlyweds, Rigsby and VP will be killed (sorry, short honeymoon)
An event at the Red Barn was the genesis of RJ and it involved Visualize. Stiles knew about it, but was building Visualize and looked away, not thinking RJ would grow into RJ, now, too late.
Haffner and Bertram and Reede Smith are good guys, but there is something inside the CBI that ain't legit.
The clue in Epi 1? Ack. Not sure...the birds or the clown face. And where in the world is Sean Barlow? And is Kristina Frye a total loss/dead end? Anybody have any thoughts?
Anyway...that my pennies and while I like McCallister for it :), if Partridge rises from the dead, it wouldn't surprise me, so rock on Partridge fans. LOL. At this point, nothing would. Can't wait til Sunday.
