People keep taking Bruno Heller's the wording of "we can trust that list" answer out of context of the interview.
He isn't asked if Red John is on the list. He is specificly asked can we trust the list.
The question was "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.
THE LIST IS REAL.
GET OVER IT.
