Theory #7987 • By Irksome
Show this theory

The show was made to entertain us, its not a real case.

I suspected they would build a way to brett stiles, to make us think its him. Hes The only one who's presented as powerful and smart enough. Bruno heller would show haffner as a good suspect first, then lead us to think its all a visualize thing, then its gonna make us be sure about stiles.in The last moment, ray will reveal his real face, and abandon that dumb

The tiger tiger members dont know Rj identity. Not all of Them. No way Rj would trust every low rank, which could say his nome before dying. Partridge could be one of those members, getting close to find out who he is.

Come on, Bertram was chasing Rj with kirkland. Hes not a tiger tiger member. Unless they are chasing Rj.

Would be obvious if any dead come to life, like in The book that bruno compared in The interview.
Would be cheat if The list is not real.

Synopsis for Season 6 episode 7 "The Great Red Dragon"

Following the shocking events at Jane’s house, the Red John list is narrowed down further, and the CBI’s priority is the remaining suspects.

The popular suspect right now is Ray Haffner. He fits most of the clues we currently have. Every week, Jane solves his case and most of the time we have no idea who the killer is. Now, do you really think that they would let us know who RJ is so easily? One thing we must realise is that we dont have all pieces of the puzzles. We are forming theories on what he have but Jane (and Heller) knows more. Robin Tunney is saying she was shocked about the identity of RJ. So we are very likely be shocked too. These 5 episodes have been pushing Haffner as Red John. He would make a great RJ but I dont think its him. In the last episode he warned Theresa and Grace about people after Jane. (Tyger Tyger). This is not a RJ move. Why would RJ do such a thing when he probably will Jane.

Red John is playing with Jane as usual. He has planted some false clues just to make harder for Jane but we dont what they are. Why would he make it easy to catch him? I have some questions about why RJ sent the PI. He has been ahead of Jane all these years and he probably was spying on them or using one his accomplices. Why he needed to plant a bug? Or maybe it was just a distraction. the magician assistant. He planted 2 bugs. Jane discovered only one.

I do like the theory I read below Van pelt. She is involved somehow in RJ story. Maybe when she placed on bug on the suspects, she didnot place it on the real suspect. She could have easily bugged another phone but simply labelling it as one of the person on the list. This is how RJ was able to kill Partridge.

I cant wait to see RJ.
*** Guys please stop posting theories about Cho is RJ. This is ridiculous. So Jane will kill Cho. Rigsby and Grace are leaving. So only Jane/Lisbon are left. Not likely.

I just want to clear some
things out.


Michael
kirkland is
very possibly alive, but i very much doubt he is red john.

Rj is
a member of the tyger tyger organisation and reede smith too.

I dont
think Rj would allow reede to kill his own brother. They are twins so they look
alot like each other.

It
could be that Michael got a ot of plastic surgery and now he doesn't look like
his brother. this scenario is possible but very unlikely.


It is possible
that Teresa is a member of the tyger tyger organisation. You all remember the poker games she was invited
too. She needed a search warnt for Tommy Volker. They gave her the warnt in
return she joined the organisation ? 

I'd
very much like to see that nobody of the team is related to Rj or tyger. 


Bret
stiles can't be the same person that does all the Rj killing. Why ? He is
physically way too old. But he knows  Rj identity. Rj is also a member of
Visualize. For all we know only Stiles and Ray are members out of the 5
remaining suspects. 


The
tyger tyger organisation. We know that the organisation is a group of corrupt
law enforcements. How i think it
works. A few or 1 person is charge and gives orders to lower members who do all
the dirty work. I don't think lower guys know who is a member and who is not. I
think only a few people know who Rj is. If Rj is very high in the tyger
organisation it would explain why he has so much power.


 

I have no idea why so
many things are related to William Blake and the book of …

 



Thanks for reading thins
and let me know if you agree. I'm going to post more soon.

Can we all just say how awful it would be if Red John was in fact the whole group of people? That would be the worst case scenario ever. The season 3 finale and the interaction of Red John, the fake one was so cold and he was disconnected from Patrick Jane. He is a man who equally loves and hates Jane so I hope that at least if Red John is in fact one person that we will have more of an interaction between the two before PJ kills him. He was gonna walk away from Jane without saying a hell of a lot to him. Patrick Jane did kill him but the smart Jane would have known straight off the bat that this was not Red John that killed his family. 

The group thing is impersonal, means that his wife and daughter died for some stupid reason, for nothing personal. This is the way I feel it is going. i feel that all the clues point to multiple people. Does anyone else feel this way? Would you be disappointed if all the suspects were in fact Red john. I hope the writers don't  go this way but it's the simplest explanation now and this is why the whole TYGER TYGER thing was brought in.

I hope the writers read this. It would be a terrible ending and not satisfying at all. please leave comments below to how you feel about this. I can't be the only one.

Theory #8023 • By hellopatrick
Show this theory

I think Patrick Jane is Red John, the trigger is the red blinking light on a live camera. That is why he hates being on tv. Cos all the encounters he had with red john or red john related was on his own, the team always arrives after and he just relays what happened. Maybe Kristina couldn't speak cos the monster was right in front of him. I mean he already got away with murder once. In the flashbacks of boywonder we see that he didn't want to fleece that dying girl but he cant help himself.
