The hug he gave Lisbon when he retired was one of dread. I think when the mentalist finally stops airing,Lisbon will be his last victim before Jane kills Red John (minelli).
In S5E5 (when Patrick Jane first meets the CBI team and joins them), Virgil is insistent on allowing Jane to follow Lisben around. Red John wants Jane on the Red John case, so he is using Virgil (or is Virgil) to make sure that Jane (who has no police experience) has an opportunity to take part in the Red John case. The reasons Virgil gives for allowing Jane to follow Lisben around are pretty hollow. During the end of the episode, he also agrees (almost too willingly) to provide the FBI with information about Jane. If Virgil is Red John, he uses his position in the CBI to watch Jane, while also providing information about Jane to the FBI, where he can gain favours from them for helping them. The ending shows that Virgil (along with the lady from the FBI) is a part of this somehow.
I'm not sure who RJ is, but the only person i have seen drink tea with their left hand is Susan Darcy in the episode "Red is the new black" when she is interviewing Rosalind Harker. I don't think RJ is a female, but i just thought i would throw that out there since i have seen a lot of theories about RJ drinking tea with his left hand.
I think RJ is Robert Kirkland because firstly, when loraline is speaking about RJ to Patrick she says,"Its a wonder you didnt become best friends from the moment you shook hands."
Moreover there is a conversation between an FBI agent and Robert Kirkland. The FBI Agent calls a man saying she wants to get rid of Patrick and then turns to Robert Kirkland saying,"Its done."
Last point: Robert Kirkland bumps into Patrick and then shakes his hand. Patrick says,"Do I know you?"
Robert Kirkland replies,"No, you dont know me, but I know you!"
Go on youtube and type in Is Robert Kirkland Red John, Its the First option
Mashburn seems to have many of the talents of Patrick Jane, something Red John shares. He has the charm and charisma to manipulate others with apparent ease and innocence, another fact we know of Red John - his people seem to view him with almost god-like awe. Brett Styles is a manipulator but lacks Mashburn's polish: Styles tricks people, Mashburn charms them.
I have 3 POSSIBLE suspects
1) Bret Stiles
2) Agent Kirtland
3) FBI Agent who took Lisbon to the poker game
I will be very shocked if it happens to be someone in the CBI like Lisbon, Rigsby, Cho or Van Pelt.
