LATEST THEORIES

This isn't so much an accusation as it is me looking for clarification. So many people are arguing that partridge isn't dead and I would be among them if it didn't leave one serious plot hole. Are we really to believe that Patrick Jane who has every aspect of every Red John victim committed to memory would not want to see the body of one of the men who was on the list or look for clues on the body or in the autopsy?

Are we really to believe that Patrick Jane wouldn't satisfy himself 100% about the circumstances surrounding his demise. It just doesn't ring true that Jane wouldn't do these things and therefore would discover if partridge's body was or wasnt in the morgue and if Heller went down that road it would be a fairly big flaw in his logic.

I saw all these things because if I have missed something in the series I hope someone let's me know.
Cheers

Tv Guide Spoilers Inbound:

The actor playing Red John was stunned and flattered when he
learned that his character "one of seven final suspects" was the shows big
bad. "Earning this little place in pop culture history was the last
thing I ever expected, he admits "truth be told, I thought I was a red
herring."

McAllister or Smith it seems......
Hopefully that puts to end that someone outside the "seven suspect list"
being red john, sadly Patridge is/was Red John theories will be around
even after the reveal.....
You can also read up on what happens after the red john reveal, story wise.

Hi All,

Bret Stiles is red John or the group of tattoed freaks are killing for him.
They kill for Bret to use the blood in his crazy women in the rituals, that is why the signature of the face on the walls.
He is capable to seduce women and is a psychic, he is also rich ...

Last night I ordered Chinese food and they packed it in this bag.

This startling revelation has opened up my mind to the truth.

I'm

now convinced that Red John and Tyger Tyger have ties to Chinese
restaurants and that fortune cookies are a method of persuasive mind
control created by Visualize. They're so subtle, yet effective. Red
John's disciples are a collaborative network of psychotic cashiers. They
have
access to databases that contain everyone's personal information,
because they have it on file from each pick-up order. When Lorelei
Martins says that Patrick and Red John could have been 'friends' when
they 'shook hands', she is eluding to the fact that Patrick, like the
rest of us, has taken from the Chinese while at the same time continuing
a relationship filled with tension and mistrust. The Tiger and the
Dragon are both central creatures on the Chinese calender. The color red
is a common theme in almost every Chinese restaurant. The Chinese flag
is 'Red All Over.' Most of the Mentalist episode titles contain the word
'red.' This is the 'Lie' within the 'Truth' that the S6, Episode 7
promo was hinting towards. Red John is masterminding China's rise to
power. Global domination is the highest level of achievement and the
true goal of Visualize. It's up to Patrick to discover this dark truth
and take measures to stop this threat before it's too late. The true
identity of Red John is.....Xi Jingping, China's president. It explains
how he is able to travel around so quickly without being discovered. He
has all the connections in the known world and the means to conceal anything he pleases. It would also provide some insight as to why he has a fondness for murdering females.

I also believe that Brett Partridge or someone else outside of law enforcement is Red John, but he does not work with or for the Tyger Tyger organization.  I believe that Tyger Tyger is a multiorganization law enforcement task force that was originally formed to find Red John.  That is why they are keeping track of Patrick.  Most likely they should have disbanded a long time ago but probably expanded on their own for their own shady reasons.   I'm not sure if they are even trying to capture Red John anymore or are just waiting for Patrick & Lisbon to get him so they can take credit,  either they are up to their to their own no good.   But I think Red John is also trying to keep track of them, that is why he said Tyger Tyger or the poem to both Patrick and Lisbon & when they didn't respond...neither died (and plus he seems to have a fondness/respect for them.)  The added purpose is to turn them to the notion that Tyger Tyger exists.   Once Red John is captured/killed then Patrick & Lisbon will focus on taking down Tyger Tyger...to keep the plotline going.  Right now the organization doesn't know that Patrick & Lisbon know anything about Tyger Tyger which is why the three (Bertram, Smith & McAllister) asked what Patrick knew.  They thought he was tracking down Tyger Tyger vice the ID of Red John.   This is another reason why Red John uses outside people to get info from inside CBI. 

An interesting side note, in the military, a Tiger team is a group formed from all groups for a particular task.   Everybody typically keeps their normal jobs but add a responsibility to meet to work on the Tiger team task.  I found that coincidental.

I dont know who is rj but ppl why are they going out of the way to make Rigsby look so different in them promo pics he is looking evil.
And always separated from the rest of group.. Tell me what that about.. Then they 'accidently' play the episode with Rigsbys father... And Risgby is coincidently leaving the show mid season.

Sorry I dunno who red John is but I believe Jane joined the cBI for a reason...
The lady that plays Lisbon said she was very shocked when she found out who red John was.. Would she be shocked if it was someone on the list... I doubt it and neither would we.

In my opinion on the list of 7 there is no one with serial killer qualities .. They are all already known to be bad men or if not kind of wayward. The reason why a serial killer can be given that title is cos they go long periods of time without getting caught.. Why u may ask..?

Because they usually display 2 personalities - a friendly sweet charming sometimes dumb themselves down to hide there inner monster. They are usually good citizens, maybe a father with a family and almost always definitely well spoken of by people that knew them. Like I said I do not know who rj is but.. None of those 7 (maybe Partridge but he's dead unless he resurrects from the dead.. But I will leave him out..) displays any of these characteristics.. They are all bad man anyway so who would be shocked or surprised if the were rj... Most of all would u care?

That is why I think someone like Risgby is perfect for rj.. I think they are making an effort ( a subliminal effort) to make Risgby stand out for some reason or another.

To be honest I don't know.. it could be any one!!

But for real them promo pics tho... Risgby looks like he killed a bitch or 2.. Looks really freaky.. Go check it out
