Who is Red John?

Theories of TotallyEngaged (4)

There is a lot of haters on this site now. Why?To start with, Bruno Heller does not owe us nothing. It is his show and has done as he pleases. You haters think you can do it better? Well here is a hint: Fundraise the money to filming a 42min episode, hire actors, camera men, equipments, everything and get it aired on tv. And yes, expect anti-haters to rant and criticize your point of view because, and you know it, that will happen too.As far as I am concern I have started rewatching the entire show now and I tell you, haha, it is a lot better now. ( just try this S03E09 to start with and you have time start all over from S01E01)My only rant against S06E08 is Red John voice. Knowing it was Simon Barker´s voice, to my taste, they should have not dubbed McAllister´s voice. For me the best moment would have been right after Cordero shot Bertram. Just a funny voice coming from the back of the church. =)

Searching for explanations about the leaked video i have found this video on youtube posted about a year ago by Bruno Heller and Daniel Cerone. How is that even possible?

After you watch the video read my comment below. That is how I think they did it! =)

If Partridge is not dead, then two (three including Jane) main characters of The Mentalist would completely suck at their job. Kimball Cho stood in front of Partridge´s dead body, even took a picture of his shoulder. Teresa Lisbon was next to Partridge whe he passed away. She could not tell the wounds were real? Partridge´s blood was all over her face. (Patrick Jane was too at the crime scene. So he was fooled too?)

Thinking about this scene, Van Pelt bugged all their phones. Lisbon checked on the tablet screen that Partridge was the only suspect there. Who else is on the list? Whose phone is not bugged? Michael Kirkland´s! =)

So, no more guessing. Since the writers have proven they will no bring dead back to life, now more than ever I am 100% convinced who Red John is.
First I must admit my first theory had a mixed result where I thought Stiles was involved (as Red John "the mind") Now I am sure he was involved through Visualize, the same way Smith was involved through the tyger-tyger reach out call (for FBI clearance at CBI headquarters)
Who is Red John? Kirkland´s description of their childhood is a pretty damn good start for me. Mom suicides with a razor blade. Dad a saddistic drunk who beat the crap out of them. Michael had a troubled childhood, became an alcoholic as his father, until he met someone, more than a man, a saviour. Someone who only wanted simple things in return, devotion and sacrifice. (Robert Kirkland tells Patrick Red John is that someone. This tipped me off to believe Stiles was Red John "the mind" on my theory 9511) What it does happen is that Michael does meet Stiles and start working at the visualize farm. He learns the Visualize ways to manipulate others souls. Red John is born, his first victim Michael Kirkland. So his body was never found. Red John does his first jobs at the barn and prints his signature for the first time. Then he starts with his seral killings until one day Patrick Jane comes to a TV show and describes him as an ugly tormented little man, a lonely soul, sad very sad. In return Red John kills his wife and daughter. So the nemesis relation starts right after Patrick is released from the insane asylum, where he starts digging for Red John. First he reaches Sac PD where detective Elliot tells him Agent Lisbon from CBI has taken over the investigation. By now Robert Kirkland is already at Homeland. Here is were Red John´s master mind games starts. He starts gathering information about him, using every possible mean. First he uses his brothers Homeland access. At the same time Red John figures out about the blake organization and infiltrates himself. By now he gathers information from Visualize, Homeland and Law Enforcement agencies through the tyger-tyger call. Red John´s master mind game uses all of them to be always ahead of Patrick, playing him, playing with him, he is always ahead. Even now, where we all have been fooled played believing each of those 7 seven suspects is Red John. While he is watching, smiling at us. =)
