Theories of Ray,K (2)

Ray Haffner is Red John.  Stiles, Partridge, Kirkland and Bertram are too obvious. Too many clues for these cats have been left to throw us off.  Smith and McAllister could be Red John because they have no history and a storyline could be established around one of them next season.  

I have many reasons including my great HATE of Haffner however I will just stick with the main 3.  Haffner states he joined Visualize because he was a troubled 17 year old going down the wrong path.  He has a football trophy in his office and several people online have hinted that he has a football background.  If he troubled enough to join a cult, would he actually be involved in playing a team sport such as football.  I am guessing the 17 years olds that Visualize are recruiting do not have a positive item in their life like football can be.  If my time estimation is correct during Haffners college age he would have been on the farm and not on campus playing ball.

I also believe Haffner has the physical goods to carry out the murders.  Red John kills at will and it doesnt seem like there is much fighting back.  Red John strikes swiftly and powerfully it seems.  Haffner fits that physical bill.

Haffner is a manipulator and liar in a very subtle way....behind closed doors with Cho......his attempt and getting Lisbon out of the CBI.......I am also guessing that all of Hafnners credentials are fake.  I also think that Haffner has gotten involved romantically with Lisbon and this will come out in the next season.  I think his invitation to Lisbon was to get her away from the CBI and hopefully have Jane working for someone less tolerant of his actions and thus getting Jane off his trail.  I also think that Haffner wanted to hook up with Lisbon to get closer to someone who knows Jane.  JAne is getting closer and Haffner knows it.

Haffner is a sleazy douchebag.  Just look at his eyes.  I hope Jane kills Haffner.  I HATE HAFFNER!
