LATEST THEORIES

The 5 seasons were great...this 6 season is...horrible...it is like : I didnt know what to do with the plot season! What now? Pj will hunt one RJ or the entire organization?? Maybe he should blow up the FBI, CBI and Homeland security and then MAYBE he would kill RJ and his organization. End of story ! ;) Heller said we would be disappointed when we fin out who RJ is right? Well i must say he is doing a great job considering that!

For all of you thinking Red John is not on the list,I am not sure but I think I heard Patrick saying to Kirkland last night that he havent´t told to a living soul who suspects are...just mentioning it,although I think Red John is on the list,otherwise the list with 7 names would have no sense...we already know the fake list was planted for someone who had intentions to steal information from Jane and that someone turned out  to be Kirkland so the list is probably real(there is no reason for 2 lists to be fake).

What I am hoping is going to be revealed is how Red John predicted the 7 names on the list,we already found out how he knew about the "happy memory" and there were some theories even before the start of the sixth season that it was somehow connected to Sophie Miller and it turned out to be true(I read about it on the mentalist board on Imdb and maybe it was mentioned here also,I don´t know).

As far as we know,Jane shortened his list to 7 names by predicting who could physicaly be at all those places where and when murders happened...my guess is that all the suspects from the list except Stiles are somehow connected to the Tyger Tyger organisation and they were at some point at Red John murder sightings doing some cover up and cleaning mess,that would explain how Red John would know the names because those are the people he sent there. It could be I am wrong but I haven´t come up with a better theory so far. What do you think how did Red John know who will be on Patrick´s list?

The show gets really cheesy, and I don't like the road they are heading but from what I understood from last nighs episode is that Kirkland has a twin. The twin that killed Jason Lennon in the hospital and the one that works for "tyger"/RJ organization. This could also mean that the list is not down to 5 suspects but remains 6 with only Partridge dead and Kirkland/Twin character alive.

Now what really bothers me is the whole organization thing. I feel that Kirklands twin maybe ran into Bret Stiles, went to Elison farm in '88 and thats how Red John was born? But the question who started "tyger tyger" remains. 
In my opinion It was started by Red John because we've seen multiple times people telling Patrick "Red John wants you bad Patrick" "Imagine the things we could do together" and so on.

But who is Red John? Could it be some messed up kid, like Kirklands brother, or Haffner etc that was killing randomly and then made this huge powerful organization or it was someone powerful like Stiles all along. I have no idea idea, so I'll just mark Kirkland on the picture since the last night episode was about him. But I hope that Bruno Heller will clear things up in the next episodes because we are only 4 eps until the big one where we see RJ and I'll be disappoint if many people are Red John.
Sorry for my inglando:) and thanks for reading.

I post a theory a week ago and i say that Kirkland will die in this episode,i accuse Haffner  to be RJ but this episode i saw that RJ it's an organization and RJ it's probably the leader maybe the members of the organization don;t know who is Red John the real identity.I think that Haffner,Mc.Allister,Bertram and Smith are the members and one of them is RJ,i don';t think that Bret Stilles is a membre or he is RJ i think he will help Jane to catch RJ and because next episode it;s about Vizualize i think that will be very interesting.

I think Brett Patridge know about the organization(Kirkland told him maybe) that he say "tiger tiger" to Teresea to warn her,and that was kill by RJ because he know about the organization not because he was on Jane list.

And about the theory that Kirkland twin brother is RJ it's very interesting because we know that Lorelai Martins had a twin sister.

It's RJ it's not the leader of this organization if he is a seriall killer create be the Bertram,Haffner,Smith and Mc.Alister to take the blame for the kills if you know what i mean, it will be very dissapointed.

Why doesn't Jane and the CBI make a recording of the voices of the RJ suspects and take them to Rosalind Harker? Surely she can identify his voice? Just a thought.

I'm so confused right now. The plot has never been like this. I look forward to episode 9.
