THE THEORIES

I have come to the conclusion that I have absolutely no idea who it is but I am going to very disappointed because I found out that it is Simon Baker who does the voice of RJ, which means it's a fake voice. I so wanted him to super creepy and spookay!! I wanted that to be his real voice. Most people who have encountered him for example the little girl, said that he had an odd voice. So ....from this we can gather that he does have an odd voice that is recognizable as being odd. Who has an odd voice..the only person that does is Stiles. None of the others are odd, and I can't imagine then being odd either... to be honest. 
Why did they kill Bret Partridge?? He was perfect. AND why did they kill off all the characters that would be ace RJ's? Even kirkland had a psychopathic look to him. I can't see someone like the sheriff being the RJ that we seen rescue Jane from the copycat killers. I can see Stiles but he is so old. Bret was the best one, failing him the ONLY other person that I could see working as RJ is RIBSGY! Those are the only two that would do him justice.

BTW, I know it's not him BUT season 1 pilot Partridge scene, did anyone notice that when Partridge was talking about RJ entering he ran into Rigbsy TWICE at the moment he said Red John....just saying would be awesome AND did you notice that Rigsby looked uncomfortable when Jane said that it was RedJohn?

I can hope can't I? :-(

I remembered Bruno Heller's interview and here it is :

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: After all that craftiness on Patrick Jane’s part, Red John is still a step ahead of him. So can we really trust that the list is accurate if Red John is so willing to confirm it?
Bruno Heller
: Yes, we can trust that list. As much as much as Red John has been one step ahead, Lorelei Martins’ intervention changed the game. So as much as Red John is trying to play from a position of strength in reality Jane has gotten a lot closer. This last episode of the season really sets us up for next season: The hunt is on, no messing about.
Once again, you’re making moves that make me wonder if Patrick Jane is Red John — after all, how else could he know that memory from inside his head? But by saying Red John is definitely on the list, can we rule out the theory held by some fans that Jane is actually Red John?
Heller: I would say that definitively: Jane is not Red John.



1)He says you can trust the list, but never actually said RJ is on the list!

2)next question he says  (Heller: I would say that definitively: Jane is not Red John), WELL couldn't he simply say, Jane is not Red John because he is not on the list!


Its possible that he said the list can be trusted because RJ mentioned the same Suspects as well , so bruno tries to give it more credibility plus Do you think that RJ would hand him self out on a plate like that by giving his name with the suspects?

Now Bruno said we will be disappointed( knowing who RJ is wont be then what is ?)

The ONLY thing that would disappoint me is   .......If red john is rigsby and i will tell you why, because they just got married and are happy, and having him as RJ would mess her life up, mess our life up and mess our minds up.....Perhaps rigsby is red john and van pelt will be his final murder....then janes catches him and kills him....do you guys remember that rigsby didn't want marriage, maybe he changed his mind after thinking that it could be a good cover for him!.i read somewhere that rigsby and van pelt are leaving the show

First at all, sorry if my English isn't perfect, I'm Spaniard.

Every single chapter of this season makes me more convinced that no one at the list is Red John. It would be really dissapointing if it finally is.

Why? All these suspects are not developed and no one appeared soon and by many chapters at the show. Bruno Heller had to decided from the very beginning who the guilty is, what includes the possibility that the show could be cancelled because of the audience. It would have been ridiculus pointing Ray Haffner or Sheriff McAllister as Red John at the second season if the show was cancelled.

On the other hand, this is the first time that we know where were each team character when "Red John" is murdering someone. Why do I say "Red John"? Because he would never do such an stupidity unless he wanted to keep out any little suspect from himself. And Rigsby's conversation with Cho saying he was finding him a girlfriend and the thing that he is the only one (but Lisbon) on the team that doesn't speak her makes he look guilty for me.

I didn't think it at first but then i saw the poster, which led me to believe that either PJ is RJ and Wayne is gonna kill him or Wayne Rigsby is RJ. Went with the second option cos there was this one episode when LaRoche was investigation the Todd burning. He questioned Rigsby  bout his fathers alibi, he actually got Cho to lie for him. May have not been through master manipulation but he used his niceness to get his way. He also managed to get Lisbon to let it slide that he was dating a van Pelt. He acts like he is head over heels in love with van Pelt yet he chose his job at the CBI over her.

Rigsby to Cho: "I'm gonna find you somebody to love"

Cho gets bugged by someone who looks exactly like Summer.

Why is the guy killing the private investigator that hurry? (He is at the house he has no possible idea how close they are, there is no reason to ring the bell that way)

He is probably hearing Rigsby talking to Lisbon and Patrick.

Rigsby and the guy killing Kira Tinsley are working together as Red John.


BANG!!!!

And now that he has a baby and a whife, killing tchem all (!!!) would be a perfect revenge and such a symetry. And the posters, I too think they tell a lot!. Defo him!
