The latest theories about Red John's identity (page 749)

Red John is Wayne Rigsby

1. He got all the physique like Red John. However, during all the shows he looked like innocent and foolish.

2. Jane always teasing, make fooled of him. RJ dont like to be fooled. Lorelei said to Jane, `You shook his hand, and also you knew each other`. Lorelei dont refer to RJ. She refer to Bertram. Bertram, Smith and McAllister involved in a murder conspiracy. They killed Kirkland because Kirkland found out what they did. Kirkland search for RJ, unfortunately he identify the Tyger-Tyger organization. RJ didnt shoot his victims. He will cut the throat and the murder method will always be the same.

3. Bret and Haffner, which represents visualize just a cult. They dont killed people. Bret knew that RJ kidnapped Miss Frye because he knew who RJ is through Van Pelt. When Bret is detained in a CBI prison, he tried to lure Van Pelt to visualize and from his failures he knew someone else is toying with Van Pelt mind, it was RJ, aka Rigsby who closed to him.

4. When Frye got kidnapped, he is monitored by CBI team. Rigsby aka RJ can get access to her house.

5. Why Rigsby attracted to Van Pelt? He was just using her. One more thing because Van Pelt is red hair. In the latest season 6, the private investigator which hired by PJ thought is RJ is not RJ. It was a member of Tyger-Tyger.

6. In early season 6 where Lisbon is lured to Partridge murder scene, Brett mentioned the word Tyger-Tyger. RJ get rid off Partridge because he figured out he was one of Tyger-Tyger. RJ knew from the lists.

7. The seven list suspects which Lorelei mentioned is the Tyger-Tyger organizations and also visualize which RJ hated the most. RJ got those suspects because he kidnapped Lorelei after Jane break out her from the prison. Lorelei did not work for RJ, she is working for Tyger-Tyger. After Tyger-Tyger knew she is kidnapped by RJ, they afraid she will told RJ everything she knew about Tyger-Tyger. RJ dont have to kill her. He knew Tyger-Tyger will. In Lorelei death, there is no blood and throat cutting. Partridge did it. He is obssessed with RJ and even learned how to draw the smile. In season 1, it clearly showed that how obssessed Partridge with RJ.

8. Why RJ sparing Lisbon during Partridge death? Because PJ love and care about her. RJ is pyschopath, he killed purposely. He wants to see PJ suffer more.

This is my crazy theory.

I think that RJ is Oscar Cordero, the guy who brought papers on Bob Kirkland murder to Rigsby. I know that he isn't a major character in the whole series, moreover I think this is the first time he showed up (let someone correct me if I'm wrong).
From the beginning of the season 6 I never bought the story with 7 suspects. I know that there are a lot you guys who believe that Red John has to be on the Jane's list (list he told to his CBI partners) because Bruno Heller officially confirmed it. That's OK, but honestly if that's true, I think the series will turn out as one of the biggest flops in recent years. Why would you simply tell your audience after 5 seasons who the "real" RJ suspects are when you haven't told them almost anything in last few years. A wise man, good director is never going to do that, now I only hope Bruno Heller is a wise man.
Why do I think Red John is Oscar Cordero? I don't know. I got a weird feeling when he showed up. He is so neutral. He matches RJ's description, short hair, average height, kinda normal voice, not muscular but he doesn't seem physically week. Actually, when the idea of Red John being him crossed my mind was when he said to Rigsby that maybe one day he will do favour for him. That's what RJ wants, other people to follow him, to obey him, to do favours from him. By the way, on IMDB it says that he features in "The Great Red Dragon" and "Red John" so he's not a character of zero significance. The only thing that doesn't match is his age, he looks like he's barely 30.
I don't know guys. That's just my guess I wanted to share with you. Most probably I'm wrong, but I wanted to contribute to this site before it shuts down, before saga is over.

The moment they showed us Haffner's fear of spiders, I concluded that Sheriff Thomas McAllister is the bloody killer. It's so obvious at this point that Haffner is just a big fat red herring. Why would RJ risk being exposed as a visualize member? Why would he deliberately talk about his phobia issues to someone involved in the case (Lisbon)? RJ is smarter than that.

The original Patrick Jane is Red John.
The Jane that we see now is in reality Jane's wife. She didn't die.

Next episode Jane's wife will try to perform inception on the 5 suspects while Lisbon drives the car.

I'm convinced that Red John is Patrick Jane, the phone calls that he is receiving are recorded by himself, we never see patrick talk when Red John calls him, he only listens.
From season 1 untill now he NEVER answerd back to Red John.

Don't be fool, yes don't be fool, let your brain work, Bruno said to us we'll be disappointed " about who is RJ ".

Tunney who plays " lisbon " said that she's surprised when she knew who RJ is.

i'm wondering IF Haffner is RJ, How can we be disappointed?, why would Tunney be surprised?, from what we've saw it's obvious as the sun in the morning that the writers wants us to believe that Haffner is Red John, no matter how many clues indicate him, RED JOHN CAN'T BE RAY HAFFNER.

For me its Sheriff thomas.

You wanna know why? ok let's go!

Bruno heller said that he decided who is RJ since the first day of the show, so must likely RJ was there from the beginning, sheriff thomas was there in the pilot, in fact he didn't appeared in any season apart the first one, ask yourself why you would bring someone who the fans didn't saw for like 5 years! what's the point? unless he was RJ from the very beginning.

The writers wants us to believe that Haffner is RJ, they gave us so many many clues indicate Haffner as RJ, ask yourself why? so we can be blind enough to not see as big clues as Sheriff thomas playing with jane just like the way of RJ, when? in S06E03 " Wedding in red ", PJ suspect that RJ has a fear of highs, what Sheriff thomas did about that? he gave PJ what he wants he pretends that he has a fear of highs because he knows that PJ suspects RJ has that, why? he wants to play with him, how he knew? because PJ said in front of him that RJ killed Sophie and he made a mistake, so IF Sheriff thomas was RJ he would assume that PJ knew about his fear but he doesn't know what kind of fears but he knows that Sophie thinks he has a fear of highs, so he played PJ perfectly, and at the end of episode Sheriff was a step ahead of Jane and he saved him, just like RJ.

Bruno heller said that there was a big clue about who is RJ at the end of episode 1 season 6, PJ Said that something stopped RJ of his routine , and they were PIGEONS IN THE HOUSE, So must likely RJ Has a fear of pigeons not highs, guess who has a fear of pigeons too? Sheriff thomas ( watch S06E03 ) but no one took that Seriously because we thought that we closed the case and we already found out who's Red john ( Ray Haffner ) , and that's why bruno heller thinks we'll be disappointed when RJ Identity revealed.

thanks for your time people.
