Not accusing anyone. Just wanted to say, can we PLEASE stop with the RJ is a vigilante, he only kills the corrupt cops, he kills the Tyger Tyger members, etc theories? RJ isn't a Robin Hood kind of character. He's a cold blooded murderer. He killed Jane's innocent wife and poor little kid for no reason! There is absolutely no way whatsoever to justify that. He's just a bad guy. Please accept that and stop posting,theories that try to paint RJ as some kind of misunderstood hero. Thank you!

So guys I've followed this site for several weeks, reading every theory and even though I can not prove my theory fully, I want to share it with you:

It's kinda long so stay with me here :)


Assumption

In my eyes Red John did not kill Jane's Family. I believe it was the Tyger Tyger organization, tricking Jane to join the CBI and helping them to find their rival, Red John.

Don't get me wrong, i still think Red John is a murder, but he did not kill Jane's Familiy.

Why do i think that?

We hear the Tyger Tyger poem the first time RJ saves Jane. It's obvious that he means the Tyger Tyger organisation with that poem, but why give Jane the hint?

Red John pretty sure knows that the Tyger Tyger organisation killed Jane's Family and tries to feed him hidden infomartions.

Now In the Desert we see Jane facing Partridge and getting a bit nervous. As stated often before, he possibly told this the Tyger Tyger organisation and they decided to kill him due to him being a too big risk.

Before Partridge dies, he tells Lison "Tyger Tyger". She tells that Jane and he acts as if he doesnt know what it means, but i'm very sure he understands the there is some kind of organisation (maybe already knows for sure).

My Theory is, that the List of 7 are all members of the Tyger Tyger organisation and thus rivals of Red John.

Now the question is why are they rivals? This will be revealed further in the plot IF my theory is correct.

I believe that Jane will find out the truth about the death of his family, killing all involved with the help of Red John and in the end they part away, as Red John is not the real Killer of Jane's family and all he lives for is revenge that he has gotten.



So guys, tell me if you find any twists or impossible things in my theory (no doubt you will) so we can discuss this :)

RedJohn isn't someone on the list of 7 and it isn't someone who is dead or an obscure character who has only appeared once It's Patrick Jane.

Just wanted to point out a possible clue for Ray haffner as red john in the next episode . In the sneak peek the prominent murdered visualize member is male and in the promo we see a female character being attacked by an unknown assailant ( probably red john ) I believe that she's red john next victim and jane and his team will figure it out and hurry to save her so red john escapes before they arrive and the woman is still alive she will probably murmur a few words that would be a big clue and then die anyway as to haffner since he is joining the investigation we can just notice if he's with the team while they're on thier way to the woman or not if yes then he's not red john another interesting fact in the sneak peek Jason cooper says that he's haffner visualize Client so he sent him to the hospital to ask Lisbon about thier investigation about red john and in turn Jason cooper will tell stiles that doesn't accuse anyone it was just an idea

I believe Red John is Rob Kirkland's twin brother, Michael.

1. We have not heard anything of him until now

2. We have been told by Rob that their mother committed suicide due to their father being a drunk which let to his brother becoming a drunk

3. Rob tells us that he tried to help his bother but later on tells us that his twin brother had "help from someone" which could have been Bret Stiles.

4. Bret Stiles tells us that he knows Red John personally which could indicate that Stiles helped Rob's brother which back fired and turned him into a killer?

5. Rob also tells us that he believes Red John killed his brother because he never heard from or seen him after he had help from this person

All angles line up with Michael... He is my est bet of being Red John.

6x01 - Jane sees that Lisbon is calling him, but when he picks up expecting Lisbon, RJ answers.

However, when RJ hangs up from Lisbon's phone, there is a *click* then dial tone. Last I checked, cell phones don't have dial tones.

Hmmm....
