Just found this site and I'm glad to see that Brett is everyone else's top suspect. He's the only recurring Character I have seen who truly matches the build and voice of Red John. Btw I didn't see the final four episodes of season 5 yet but I read on here that he narrows the list to 7 suspects. I've suspected Brett for a long time because Red John is a small, slender white guy with a nerdy voice just like Brett. Let's not also forget that he appeared in the very first episode which would make it fit perfectly. And as Jane said in the first episode "He urks me... He's urksome."

I do like this show but I will admit the writing is pretty annoying. They don't seem to like to give viewers hardly anything substantial about Red John so I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if his list of 7 turned out to be nothing and that Lorelei was just lying all along.
