All thing lead to him,but if brett is red john that's gonna be just like movie se7en just TV show i don't want that.Sry for bad english

Just a question, isnt Brett Partridge too young to be Red John? His first killing would be 1988.. That is like 25 years ago :\ he must have been a toddler, no ?

Although alot of you will disagree, i believe that i wouldn't be dissapointed is Red John turns out to be Brett Partridge. I'm quite fond of Brett's charator, i like the way he acts, the way he looks and the fact that i can see him being Red John. He seems quite socially awkard, he seems to be mocked and despised by quite a few people. He seems almost the perfect candidate.

In my opinion RJ is either Brett Partridge or Sheriff Thomas Maccalister.About sheriff i dont have any clues but he seems really suspicious to me.

About Partridge lets take the things from the beggining.1)Bruno Heller said that we can trust the list.
2)He also said that we will be dissapointed when we found out who red john really is.3)He also said that the first episode of the mentalist s01e01 is very important to the RJ story.In this episode we have a fake RJ murder BUT Partridge appears on this episode.And think about it the man we try to find for 5 seasons is on the first episode.Thats the importance that Bruno Heller mentions in the episode at my opinion.4)Partridge characteristics are like those that Rosalind Harker gave to PJ.5)At s02e08 his right red hand we see red john kills Janet Peak.In this frozen image of this episode we clearly  see that the man with the hood is Partridge http://thementalist.wikia.com/wiki/Janet_Peak?file=Vlcsnap-2012-10-09-23h24m43s165.png .6)In last episode of s5 when the other guy says that he wants to work with a serial killer we clearly see Partridge saying Hi! 7)He is also at the right age according to the Red Barn episode(s05e13).

Now about Bob Kirkland.He obviously isnt RJ.First of all Lorelei said to PJ that he shook hands with RJ.When PJ shook hands with BK Lorelei was in jail....So the theory about BK being RJ isnt true.Although i believe that BK is one of RJ friends inside the FBI and thats why he stole the informations from PJ's Office and also killed the other RJ servant(that was clearly an order from RJ himself).

About the last episode RJ is not a psychic.The whole show is about mind games and NOT supernatural powers.I believe that he took this memory from PJ just after the time PJ's wife and daughter killed by him.If you remember PJ was in clinic for a year.I believe at this time RJ achieved to take this memory from PJ without PJ remember that he told someone about it.

I have an idea, do you remember the driver of red john's Limousine in season 4 episode 24 , he was also a bodyguard, so let's look at every Limousine's driver and bodyguard, that we have seen  before s04 e24 and  compare them with the one in s04e24  , and see the guy in Back seat .

I think the real question is not "Who is Red John". If we know who is RJ, then there are other question will show that we have to ask. 

1) First of all, why RJ kills? Just an ego? I think it can't be. He has a powerful friends. If he kills just a reason of ego, why they support him? He must be good offer.

2) What is the offer? What can you offer to FBI agent, Homeland Security... Who really are you RJ?

3) This is a really interesting question that i wanted to know. His servants... Why his servants kills them selves? Think about it, look our world. Doing that thing people are usually do for a  faith, opinion, religion. RJ should give them a faith. Visualize can do that. We clearly see that. And i think there must be connection.

4) This question like the first one(just more ideas, short questions). For what reason he kills? Why a powerful man kills random, normal people. (I accept they are random, because if not PJ should have noticed that)

*These questions are relevant. But i wanted to ask in different numbers, because of little details.

When i analysed that questions... First i thought Bret Stiles can be RJ. Because he can manipulate, he can gives faith(at the cost of death). But he is not a potencially killer. But includes some of RJ characteristics. 

Bret Partridge has a killer characteristics. PJ finds him creepy. And he really is too. He can do RJ murders. But he is not a powerful man(we can see).** If he is powerful and he hides, why? I think there is not a logical answer. If we accept he is not a normal killer.

But if we combine Bret Stiles and Brett Partridge(names are the same is that a coincidence?) we can clearly see the Red John characteristics that we need. 

RJ has a connections, visualize too. But a powerful organisation(***) acts serial killer actions? Come on. This is the real question. RJ is powerful man. And if you want to use agents, you should give them a good damn reason. What is that reason? Why he kills? Why smiling face? We makes theories but no one explains included that questions. There is a good questions but we make it relevant and put it on a logic.

*** I used organisation because he has a powerful friends, connections. That makes you have organisation at least.
