Who is Red John?

Theories of Stoopkid (372)

I am going on vacation for a week and will miss the next two episodes !
Plus side when i get back i can watch two in a row and thats awesome.
While i am gone don't let the trolls f with this site.
This is the best mentalist site out there and the red john saga is still alive.
Even tho its a small chance there is still a chance.
And the fact the show waited until episode 20 to even mention Rjs name is a great sign for us.
Even if Rj is dead we will no doubt get an explanation and plot holes will be filled.
Shows even one like this always cover the plot holes or at least most of them.
Keep the faith...
Sincerely,
Stoop Kid

Fan Fiction.
Abbott is done with jane. The deal is off the table and Jane will be tried for the murder of red john ep20

Jane encountered that Lorelie was in the fbi. That is why the fbi wanted her so bad and went to great lengths to attain her. And how they were aloud to steal her and show a replacement inmate in her place. That was never explained how they pulled that off.
Alexa Shultz is working for red john in the fbi.
Jane causes a shitstorm and abbot gets him arrested.
.....Lorelie was confident rj would get her out of jail. That means rj is fbi or Brett styles. Styles eventually did get her out of prison. Not many people have that kinda pull.
In watching old episodes its weird watching Bertram help Jane out with Rj stuff. It seems like Bertram really wanted Rj on a platter. A fish platter. Fischer platter haha
So we have Red John the ego maniac who paints the face and craves attention and we have a leader of a secret organization who doesn't want anybody to know who he is. Devoid of all ego. Plus it would be the first serial killer ever to create a law enforcement underground mafia as well as having visualize like brainwashed followers. How does a serial killer and lowly sheriff start owning governors and judges and law enforcement as a whole?
-red john alive or not there is a major hole in this saga. Rjs footprints seem to lead two completely opposite ways.
The male dominated BA vs the female brainwashed Rj followers.
Classic ying yang ish

I re watched the season 4 finale. It was always weird to me that the bicycle that RJ left for Jane to ride had a toe tag on it.
It is weird because literally the scene right before it we see agent darcy look at a toe tag on fake wayne rigsbys body.
Also even weirder that Rigsby HAD to go out for nachos while undercover right before the sting.
Also Red john said he found out when the fbi found out. He has a friend in the fbi he said.
Well it can't be Smith because Smith only had one encounter with RJ.
So who is RJs friend in the FBI?
Is it the same friend that warned Styles that the fbi were after him?
Is this why Jane decided to work for the FBI? I am almost positive Jane joined the fbi to look into them, why else?
The finger cut off thing is weird too. 3 instances we have seen so far. RJ to jane, kirkland to hibachi, hiabach to jane.
Also weird in that episode HOW THE F DID RJ STEAL WAYNERIGHT?!
Wayneright is last seen with CBI RON and his trusty sidekick i forget his name.
God i would love for those two to be involved.
So many clues including the he is mar one....I believe this clue will be explained. It is important to note that the mexican prostitute wrote the clue on the wall from where she was sitting. he is mar.......

After this weeks episode things will majority heat up. Next weeks episode starts the whole human trafficing story line which stretches from episode 19 to 20 and maybe even deeper.
I believe this trafficking thing will bring us to the long awaited Visualize and hopefully Brett Styles.
Then Janes pre trial. If jane has a pre trail for the death of red john that means his deal with Abbot was broken, but why?
I always knew Jane would blow up this whole FBI relationship its almost inevitable that he will.

DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE.
Agent Pike will ask Lisbon to marry him.
She will say yes and plans to leave Texas and Jane.
Dont you think its a little weird how fast their getting married?
How Agent Pike just met Lisbon yet acted like he knew her for years?
Something us up and Pikes agenda is more than just love.
He wants to take away Janes last happy thought, Lisbon.
Shits gonna go down and we will hear gunshots before wedding bells.
The promos and commercials will tell us otherwise but as a Mentalist fan we should know by now
that nothing is as it seems.

Thank God the Haibach thing was so short.
There is not a single big storyline going on now. This means that the only story line left is going to be Red John related with Jane in court.
This also means that they are going to spend time on it and not just brush by it.

Things will be explained. Janes future depends on it.
For Jane to go to trail now means he pissed off the Fbi right?
That was Abbots deal with him.
Lisbon is leaving with Pike which makes me think more Jane blows up the Fbi relationship.
He never liked or trusted them. He only joined the fbi to check it out and like its a fishbowl.
Every tv show i have ever seen in its entirety tied up all or most lose ends.
The plot holes will be filled and ifs gonna be awesome.

I found some similarities in this weeks episode and Season 3 Episode 3 "The Blood on His Hands".

The episode from season 3 starts out with Rigsby being late to the crime scene because he was knocking boots all night. Van Pelt make sly remark to him just like Jane did to Lisbon this week.

The episode is also about Kristina Freye. She has been with Red John for 4 MONTHS! i wonder what they did with the time? Crazy Devil Sex? Freye calls into a radio show and sounds fine while giving sound advice.
Its funny that this weeks past episode blatantly wanted us to think of Freye. That body of water line automatically made you think of her.

Its weird that some episodes have the word "his" in them. "His thoughts were red..., the blood on his hands, and that those episodes are both Brett Styles and Visualize episodes.
This episode is also the first time Olaughlin crashes into the scene. Red Johns FBI buddy that was sent to check on visualize. He ended up also spying on CBI.
Its funny how Jane is in the Fbi now after all the shadiness coming from that dept.
Did Rj have a lot of Fbi friends?
The rbi was ready to arrest Styles right before his "death". Why did the Fbi want him so bad? He is like the Dali Lama for f sake.

just some stuff to think about. No answers here, thats the shows' job.

Lisbon is a such a B-word!
Did she really have to show off in front of Jane like that?
The man still sleeps on a coach in his workplace. 
You would think someone would say "hey Pat you killed Red John how about you get your life together and maybe I don't know, go home? Maybe buy a home? Or a car?"
Jokes aside, this "New Beginning" seems like malarky. Jane is still trapped in the past and seems more depressed than when Red John was alive.

I know this Kristina Freye stuff can hardley be considered proof but it is definitely cool to think about.
So I ask...
*Who in your humble opinion would be the best choice for Red John if he or she is magically still alive?
*What storyline along with the character would be the most intriguing for you?

I get the feeling agent Pike is RJ but that only fills one hole in the plot. He is Mar. Maybe more will pop up as we see him more.
So my favorite scenerio is Kristina Freye. Red John being a female would be a great twist and honestly I have always thought he was a she from the vibe of the character. Ex Being in love with Patrick. Another reason why Macalister was not Red John. Macalister did not love Jane or want to recruit him for anything ever. 
Freye could hypnotize anyone to do and think anything so that fills a million holes right there including her gender.
She could also be working with someone possibly her neice Grace Van Pelt? haha that be nuts!
Or her lover and partner in crime Erika Flynn?!? I would do anything for that woman. Jane has insane self control.

So tell me what your fave? Cbi Ron ? Brett Styles/Haffner? Agent Fischer...

side note: jane should do agent fischer on Lisbons desk.
