Who is Red John?

Theories of Ash (1)

My prime suspect is Dean Harkin

1) First lets look at his name and the meaning. As we know this show there alot of cryptic clues that we have to decipher.

*Dean (Definition of *) - The head of a faculty. The senior member, of any group, organization.
A man who is the senior member of a group
(Red John as alot of followers and clearly he is the Head and Senior member of this group)

**Harkin (Definition of **) - Irish and Gaelic origin, and the meaning of Harkin is "Dark Red".
Irish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó hEarcáin
‘descendant of Earcán’, a byname or personal name formed
from a diminutive of earc ‘Red’, ‘Bloody'.


2) In Episode 11 Season1, when Jared Renfrew writes on the wall "He is Mar" - could he have instead meant to have written "He is Har" as in "He is Harkin"  (Just a thought)

3) Rosalind Harker - again a play on names - both Dean and Rosalind have very similiar surnames Harker and Harken.
RJ and Rosalind were lovers and this could be a clue that links them together.

4) He as powerful friends in the FBI - in the episode Code Red he states
"I'll call my friends at the FBI, get them to take over from you. In fact, I will do that."


5) Hes description - He as Red hair and fits the description of what Rosalind describes.

6) He's probably married (has a wedding ring at finger), and Patrick Jane describes him as one who scares people, and an irksome man.
