LATEST THEORIES

Guys, you might think this is just another stupid theory, but I am not lying.

Red John is one of 2 people: Reede Smith ( http://thementalist.wikia.com/wiki/Reede_Smith ) or Gale Bertram ( http://thementalist.wikia.com/wiki/Gale_Bertram ) . I figured this out by going on their pages (above) . It shows the last appearance (episode) . The other 3 suspects' (Bret Stiles, Sheriff Thomas McCallister, Ray Haffner) Last Appearance is the episode "Fire and Brimstone". My two suspects' last episode says "Red John". That's what I think, but out of those two: Reede Smith sure has the antagonistic attitude, but Gale Bertram sure has the recourses. I'd say Gale Bertram, that's it.

I'm unsure of who RJ is, hats of to Bruno Heller but i have my top 2 suspects.

Kirkland and Partridge are dead

Stiles - to old for me, i don't think a 70 year old could strangle and murder so many woman.

Smith - If its him i'd be pissed off, he's fat and doesn't match anything to do with RJ.

Haffner - He's the perfect candidate and i suspected him the moment the list was revealed, i want
             to be surprised !!

McAllister - He appeared early on, he's a good shot with a gun, jokes when he kills someone, 
                  has a good scene of smell, he is around 50 on the show so fits the description of 
                  being middle aged, he was very layed back when Jane entered the room in Ep2 and
                  he's played by Xander Berkeley and i just watch 24 season 2 - he blew me away.

Bertram - He is around middle aged, would have the contacts in other agencies, possibly hiding
               in plain site, he keeps up with the news and the way the CBI is portrayed in it - like RJ, 
               and how would Timothy Carter know to be at the mall if Bertram hadn't told him ? 

Cheers

According to the mentalist website, The Great Red Dragon episode synopsis is 

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

Who's gonna die next week ?

If Red John doesn't turn out to be Rosalind Harker's right hand, or her henchman, then Bruno Heller is Britney Spears.

Patrick Jane is Red John.

Actually he became Red John when he killed the original Red John at the end of Season 3.
That really was Red John, and Patrick really did kill him.
Then Season 4 reveals that it wasn't really, perhaps just an accomplice.

I believe that the act of killing RJ caused a psychotic break in Jane, creating multiple personalities.  And Jane became Red John.

It's a common theme among cop shows that Revenge is a terrible thing, and it never really satisfies you.
