LATEST THEORIES

Why does everyone think that the dying victim wrote "He is Mar"? Why would a dying person care about upper and lower case letters in the beginning of a sentense? Perhaps she wrote "lle is Mar" or "11e 15 Mar" or something else.

Interesting that Jane and Kirkland have this conversation in episode 5.7 "If it Bleeds, it Leads"

Jane: "Do I know you?"

Kirkland: "No, But I know you!"...

Now, before Robert Kirkland tortures and or kills a suspect, he asks: "Have you ever seen me before? Are you positive?"

We recently learned this is because he has a twin brother. So why would Robert Kirkland answer with a quick No when Jane asks "Do I know you?"

It appears that Michael Kirkland has made some appearances on the show. He's probably still alive.

I just want to know when the people from Criminal Minds are going to come over and solve the case...

One thing I really found interesting was that in Red-Listed (Season 6 Episode 4) Kirkland said that his twin brother, Michael, had serious drinking problems like his father and Red John approached him about them. Well, Visualize specializes in drinking problems so it would make sense if it was Stiles. Also, the reason Kirkland didn't see him is because I remember in the episode that introduced Visualize that a visualize member had to break off all connections with his family so he can find his true identity. Personally, I don't think it is Stiles but I wanted to make this point.

I really dont know who red john is, i mean i have a theory, but hes just a geeky lab guy that we havnt seen in like 30 episodes.  Asides that, lets talk about matthew Kirkland for a second.  It is completely possible that its him.  Reasons being, when rob talked about his brother, he says he met some guy, changed him, he wasnt the brother he was before.  What if Mat met styles, and the reason mat drank was because he had violent urges.  If styles told him to act on them, showed him how, explained that he shouldnt be bothered by morals and such.  Allowed him to be unincumbered by the emotions that seemed to be destroying him.  created red john.  Looking at any point in which rob is on camera, one could almost say that it was his brother.  One question i have is why the hell did rob kill the guy in the room before interrogating him, and asking him about rj?  the whole thing about do you recognise me, in this case could be reffering to red john asking him if he sees him.

Next theory.  Look at the tyger tyger conspiracy.  is it plausible that red john isnt one guy.  I mean he seems to be everywhere, can do everything, is really smart.  who thinks that red john is the entire tyger conspiracy?  

alright, what do you think?

Just wanted to point out that the hut Kirkland was killed in was owned by 'Michael Kirkland' - Bob Kirkland said his brother was 'taken' when he was a child. If that was the case then why would the house be under Michaels name. It wouldn't have hid the fact Bob was using it if it has his surname. And I doubt it would be used as some form of shrine.

I'm not saying Michael Kirkland is RJ, however it does seem like a message that he is at least alive, and was in contact with Bob to allow him to use it for his torturings.

Hi, here's my theory

Bob Kirkland: He just want to find who Red John is.

Brett Patridge, Sherif McAllister, Reede Smith & Gale Bertram: Members of the tyger tyger organization.

Brett Styles: Boss of the tyger tyger organization. (Episode 7 of season 6 is called "The great red dragon" and i believe that the great red dragon is Brett Styles so maybe in this episode, we'll discover that he is the boss of this organization)

Ray Haffner: Red John (He didn't kill Lisbon cause he loves her, good whistler and blablabla..)
