Heller on Captain Kirk...

"Bob Kirkland (Kevin Corrigan): The Homeland Security agent is 'a dark horse,' according to Heller. 'If you were a betting man, he'd be an outside shot I think, but a good dark horse. He is probably the most mysterious of the candidates, and that makes him suspicious. His behavior sometimes, even what we've seen of his behavior, is inexplicable and even murderous. So, if he ain't Red John, he's certainly one weird cat.'"

Tiger's are kitty-cats, aren't they?

--------------------------------------------

Not so sure if this is a one man act...  

Kinda think Jane was had something to do with the air conditioning when his study was broken into...  Is he planning anything special?

Kirkland was talking to Tom on the phone...  But I'm just not seeing it as 'only' being the Sheriff--is that the point?  

Wonder if Red John is a ghost, his actions on the other hand (his right hand?), very real...  Stiles have anything to do with it?

If I had to go with one, it'd be Kirkland.  I like Partridge, (is he really dead?)  but Kirkland does fit the bill quite well--does he like Lisb'awn' as he first puts it?  He drinks Caesars like Jane does in the second last episode of season 5...  But what does that prove?

Meh, I'm enjoying the hunt!  If it's one person, I'll stick with Tiger's being cats...Captain Kirk all the way.
(Maybe Red John doesn't pull the trigger...  His Right Hand does...)

Love all your theories folks!
