I believe red john is patrick jane! Red john has always known everything jane was thinking and everything he will do. Whether it be to jane having a split personality or not he certainly has the capability to be red john let us no forget jane was put into a mental hospital before coming to the CBI. If you wanted to get revenge on a serial killer then why would you go to the law enforcemant to do what would end up being a crime. Yes he went to the CBI for the red john files but that doesn't tell us why, it could be that he wanted to use them to help he's search, or it could be that he wanted to moniter the information they had and control the situation so that the finger would not be pointed at him. There is no denying that jane is the only person that can equally match up to red john so it would seem plausible that they are 2 of the same person. Jane also strongly dislikes guns but we do not know if he has the same opinion about knives (the weapon of choice for red john) jane also was part of the travelling circus, meeting thousands of people learning hundreds of skills (maybe to do with knives) and maybe even developing a hatred of some kind against women, who knows. There is also the most well known parts in an episode where red john reads janes private memory exactly how he remembered it! Jane also used to be a hustler taking on various personas such as physcics, mediums and others, who's to say that red john is another persona/fantasy that went to far and that he can't come out from. That's why I believe jane is red john, I mean who would suspect the person who is most hell bent on catching and killing red john.
