Guys i'm not psychic but i dreamed an idea after watching the last episode of The Mentalist...I think Red John is Kristina Frye because she is the only one who appeared on The Mentalist and was smarter than Jane.Do you remember when she said that Jane's daughter was sleeping when she was killed by Red John.We all know psychics don't exist so how can she know the fact that his daughter was sleeping.
Another thing is...The best way to be ruled out as a suspect for Red John is to be killed or in her instance to be kidnapped by Red John by the way her body was never found.
And another thing is i think Rosalind Harker is maybe her sister.I think she is lying about Red John every thing she described was a lie.
I thinks the list of seven is a lie to put us off the path of finding out who Red John really is.Frye helped a lot of people with her "psychic powers".A lot of them i think were powerful and she could have easily known about the tyger tyger group and frame them.
One time i think she even defended Red John and justified his doings.
The last thing is that killing duos like red john started are most of the time made up by a male and female killer something like Bonny and Clyde.I think this is the answer why Red John first sidekick was a male cop.
PS. To all who belive in the list of seven....Its defintely fake because they all look like they could be Red John and if you watched crime movies or series always the guys who didi it is the one you least expected.BERTRAM IS REPORTING TO SOMEONE AND HE IS FOLLOWING ORDERS RED JOHN DOESNT. SMITH ALSO FOLLOWS ORDERS AND HE IS TO FAT.THE SHERIFF IS TO LIKEBALE AND HE ALMOST SWORE THAT HE ISN'T RED JOHN RED JOHN IS PROUD OF HIS WORK AND HE RED JOHN WOULD NEVER DO THAT BECAUSE HE IS PROUD OF HIS WORK.STILES ALREADY HAS A CULT AND RED JOHN ALSO HAS A CULT AND HE IS DYING SO IF HE IS RED JOHN JUSTICE WONT BE SERVED CAUSE HE WOULD HAVE DIED FROM NATURAL CAUSE ANYWAY.HAFFNER ADMITS THAT HE IS DUMBER THAN JANE ANOTHER THING A PERSON THAT IS FOOL OF HIMSELF WONT DO AND WHO IS OFFENDED BY SOMEONE WHO TALKS BADLY ABOUT HIM ON TV.AND THE ONE THAT WAS MOST LIKELY TO BE RED JOHN THAT IS BRETT PARTRIDGE IS DEAD IF HE ISN'T THAT WOULD OFFEND THE PICTURE OF A GENIOUS THAT WE THINK PATRICK JANE IS!!!!
PPS. WE ALL KNOW RED JOHN IS SMART SO A SMART KILLER WOULD CONFIRM HIS LIST OF SUSPECTS ONLY IF HE KNEW HE WASN'T ON THE LIST OF SUSPECTS OTHERWISE IF HE REALLY WAS HE WOULD HAVE KILLED PATRICK JANE.
