So here's my thought, Virgil Minelli is Red John. The way in which he left the CBI after the bosco killing left too many open and unanswered questions, then he turns up again to help PJ........ His age fits that of a former high ranking Visualize member and his high status within the CBI gave him opportunity to manipulate proceedings there. Through Tyger Tyger he does many of his killing now. Question is....WHY????? Why are all these people helping him. Is it through hypnosis that he is able to influence others? That I am intrigued (and excited) to find out.
Regarding Rigsby and Van Pelt leaving the series. If you recall, Van Pelt has sympathy and a fascination with Visualize so my guess is she gets caught up with them, or possibly is already a member and that implicates her in some way. I don't like the Rigsby is RJ theory, if RJ wanted the CBI bugged he would have plent of opportunity to do it. What is plausible to me is the possibility that he is one of the ones to be hypnotised in some way and is manipulated to kill that way. It could well be that the tattoo implication relates to him and he was the killer. What if the tattoo is fake and a rigsby is killed by Van Pelt because she knew of the tattoo only for us all to find out the tattoo wasn't real. How heartbreaking would that be!?!!?!???!
There's my penny's worth. It would be good to hear your thoughts before tonight's show!
