There are 7 suspects. Red John got the list because Lisbon is bugged during season 5, and he made the video right after Jane tells Lisbon the 7 names in the finale (6 names are said off-screen). Lorelei Martins is still alive so Red John can make the CD straight away when he hears. Patrick realises Lisbon is bugged very early on in season 6 and uses it against Red John. This is also why Red John doesn't kill Lisbon.
- Red John was in prison. He can't have a job in law enforcement unless he changed his name.
- Red John has a soft voice, is under 6 ft
Only 1 person fits these very specific criteria : Brett Partridge
- Red John was at West Huron when he was first bugged- he doesn't move all day.
- Red John kills Brett Partridge, his other alias
- Red John has pigeons in his home.
- Woman from Visualise has rings like Red John, wearing Partridge's watch, and feeding pigeons
That all points to the same guy: Brett Partridge
- Red John overhears Sophie Miller's notes, when Jane plays them to Lisbon
- Everyone in Tyger Tyger suddenly starts whistling, Haffner starts whistling and Stiles even whistles
- Who isn't in Tyger Tyger? Robert Kirkland. Does he whistle? No.
- Safe to assume Red John is the leader of Tyger Tyger and has a strong link to Visualise
That all points to: Brett Partridge
- Who looks nervous in Red John's Rules when he knows nothing of the list or Jane's exploits?
- Who hints that "Red John has been laying low for years" and thus implies he didn't kill Lorelei Martins?
This guy: Brett Partridge
- Who could you use as a Red John, that's going to result in the highest DVD sales?
- Whose scenes do you see little Easter Eggs, implying he's Red John?
- Who is Red John?
Brett Partridge
