Who is Red John?

Theories of Blasis95 (12)

Here is a weird thing I noticed and I would like to share with you.In episode 5x13 "The Red Barn" we learn that back in 1988 Red John was in Eliston farm and he painted a big smiley face on the Barn. Inside the barn they where 3 victims, 2 of them should be Red John's even if we can't be sure for that.
Weird thing is that when Patrick asked the preacher what the smiley face meant and he said "You know I asked Talbot what it meant and he told me it means anything".


TALBOT?! Talbot was one the 2 victims that Red John probably killed, but he saw the smiley face.So the problem is that Red John's first smiley face was painted before his first victims!

I was trying to figure out what that means and the best thing it popped out to my head is that Red John painted the smiley face there not for a human victim but for animals. Red John is a hunter, he started with animals and then started to kill people.The only hunter we know is Thomas McAllister but yet we are not sure if there is someone else in the list that is a hunter aswell.


Please comment below if you can think something better than I did about his first smiley face.

Uh... Im really tired of Partridge's theories... I know he would be a great Red John, I thought he was Red John till the beginning of season 6 and then I started looking at facts, reading interviews and putting things together.

OK Jack Plotnick (Partridge's actor) said that he was playing Partridge as he was Red John the whole time. That's why everyone is so convinced that its him.

Its a trick that Heller played to us so everyone will believe its him till season 6, and yes he has too many fans that still stick to him.

Additionally, the actor that plays Red John said he was stunned and fluttered when he learned that he will play Red John, which ofc doesn't fit with Plotnick who was playing Partridge like he was Red John.

I try to minimize the people that write Partridge theories because its getting annoying, Partridge is not Red John please choose someone else and stick with him otherwise you will be really disappointing.  

Please read his interview here: http://www.tvequals.com/2013/09/23/exclusive-interview-the-mentalists-jack-plotnick-talks-playing-brett-partridge-being-a-red-john-suspect-flies/

I wanted to note that Red John didn't just killed Partridge but he also hit him, he had bruises on his faces which is a little bit weird. For me it indicates that he did something wrong and Red John punished him. Best thing i can guess is that he gave away himself as not being Red John and reducing Jane's list to 6 suspects when Patrick looked him in the eye.

Sorry if my post disappointed you,,, but please dont trick yourself, open your eyes, do not just see what you wanna see otherwise you will be blind to the truth.

Uh!!! I see many people saying that the man in the church and the man that Jane hunts is not the same... and that Red John would never ask for mercy...!!!
OK OK... Red John is not afraid for his life he is afraid of dieing and losing the credit for his precious work... Imagine Bertram taking the credit for Red John;s work!!!

That's his worst nightmare he can't stand dieing and losing the credit for his work that's why he is asking for mercy, because Jane shot him and told him that none else will find out his true ID. That's what Red John is afraid of, that's his true nightmare and its Jane's gift to him.

PS: That's not my theory although  I agree 100% with that, I remember reading it in this site some wees ago.

Ok let's clear things up...
Bertram tries to vanish and he needs money for that. He goes into a storage service and he uses a card with the name Thomas. Thomas?! What?!

Ofc its McAlister's card so It's McAlister's vault. That's why he has all these bottles of wine there... because he is from Napa, the wine country.

Later in the day Patrick goes to the news and says that we know who Red John is... he is Gale Bertram and exactly after that incident Cho, Van Pelt and Rigsby find an encrypted file to McAllister's vault. McAllister (or Red John to me) knows that they won't be able to crack it and they will send it to Jane.

Ofc Jane will easily decode and and guess what?McAlister aka Red John wants a private meeting with Jane so he can tell him that he won the game because Patrick guess wrong about Bertram that's why he can hear Red John in 6x08 promo saying: "It's over, I won the game!" because he thinks that Jane has guessed wrong.

The encrypted file tells all about the time and place which of course is a church because Red John doesn't think that Patrick will shoot him inside a sacred place.
Funny thing is that at the last scene of 6x07 Patrick tells Teresa to let it go and that the encrypted file is just a waste of time. And that makes absolute sense because Patrick wants Red John for himself and he wouldn't like Lisbon to decode it and spoil the moment. :)
Thanks for reading! ;D

Cmon people I expected more plausible hits to my previous post... Check this out...

Kirkland and Smith meet and there is a black coffee remaining.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKVj-_TAHeQ



Haffner drinks black coffee.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z20aYkfg1s



That's why I believe Kirkland is Haffner's client... Haffner works for Kirkland.That's why Haffner always asks about Red John and always say:
"I don't care, I got clients that care".

Yeah clients.... you mean Robert Kirkland! :P

Hope I convinced you this time its a very well hidden clue and it popped to my head by luck!
Trust the subconscious mind!! :D

OMG OMG OMG!!! I was just watching 6x04 and this popped to my head!Remember when Kirkland met Redee in the park and he was holding 3 coffees? Actually he said: "What do you want? I got black, milk, milk and sugar" and he touched the milk and sugar coffee before Redee tells him that he wants that so he knew that he was gonna get that and there are 2 coffees remaining, milk and black. Kirkland takes the second coffee which is milk and now he has black coffee remaining Can you remember you was drinking black coffee?Raymond Haffner.

When Raymond haffner met Lisbon at 6x06 he ordered coffee, black coffee.That's what makes me believe that Kirkland was going to meet Haffner right after Redee Smith and what business they got together?Raymond always asks Lisbon about Red John progress and he always say that he doesn't care but he has clients that care. Got it?! 
Kirkland is one of Raymond's clients. Haffner worked for Kirkland and i bet that Kirkland paid thim so he can feed him with Red John info.

Of course that doesn't mean that Haffner can't be Red John but it means he is one of the clear cops thats why he doesnt have the dots, although i dont think that haffner is Red John.

I find it amazing and It just popped to my head right now I'm so excited!!! Haffner working for Kirkland? Who could imagine? And yet all clues where there! :P
