THE THEORIES

I can tell you who isn't Red John. Gale Bertram. It became obvious when Jane alerted the media. He wants to be the one to find him and kill him, he doesn't want every tom, dick and harry chasing after him

This is really funny... People are just like sheep I tell you. Before episode 6x8 everyone was saying Ray Haffner and Brett Partridge. After this episode everyone are like sheep they are almost all just copying each other theories to get the highest plausible amounts. Yesterday it was so horrible that the site got down multiple times..
This was a site to post your theory by thinking with your brain, not confirming what everyone saw in an episode.

The truth is Bruno Heller has roughly THE mind control of what people are concluding right now. In every episode people's opinions are almost the same now.

It's funny I was one of the few who believed since season 1 that McAllister was Red John and now it's like a whole visualize cult has come to believe that too after one episode.

So please don't (ddos) post too much on this website otherwise other people can't read those theories without getting the 502 Gateway error.

Thank you.

Well, guys and gals, we are so close to knowing who RJ is already! I must admit I was a bit pissed lately cause everything seemed to point to Bertram, but after reading this: http://www.spoilertv.com/2013/11/the-mentalist-episode-608-red-john_171.html I´m guessing it´s not him...I´m a bit confused though, let´s think about the rest:
Kirkland: dead and was searching for RJ anyway, so, definitely he is not RJ.
Smith: Patrick would have known if he lied, so he is not RJ.
Partridge: dead
Stiles: dead
Haffner: dead
McAllister: dead, but seems to appear in next episode? That doesn´t mean he is RJ for sure though...I know I´m pointing out the obvious, but my point is, either someone else we thought was dead will come back, or RJ was NOT on the list...and after bashing so much those Partridge´s fans that claimed he was alive the first option will be kind of weird, I don´t know if you get what I mean xD I know it´s in different circumstances though, but still...
Honestly I´m still hoping it´s someone not on the list, yes, after reading those TV Guide spoilers and all, but anyway, we´ll know in less than one week, keep on theorising people! :p

Why did they zoom in on Patrick's pants pocket after he sat down in the church pew?

In the 11th hour, I am changing my theory. Well, not so much changing my theory as I am accepting other theories as correct as well. I never thought I would end up with this conclusion but at the same time, it's the only thing that makes sense anymore. So here it is....

There are 3 Red John's. Yes, 3. That is why there are 3 dots on the tattoo. I am convinced that Partridge and McAllister are 2 of them but I'm not sure if the third is Bertram or Michael Kirkland. This is why so many of the clues lead us all in different directions. I'm sure only one of them killed Patrick's family and I have no idea which one but I think we are all going to get what we want in the end.

I watched this video of a guy watching an early screening of the show and that is when it all made sense. It is basically, an unholy trinity. I honestly can't believe that I have changed my mind in such a dramatic way, but I have.

One problem I've always had with the Partridge theory is that in the copycat murder case that Partridge is working he claims it to be RJ. We know RJ doesn't like to be slandered and hear it straight from his own mouth that he hates poor imitations of his work, yet as Partridge he is giving credit to the copycat killers as being RJ? It just goes completely against RJ's character to do that for any reason. I understand the "throwing Jane off" argument as the counter to that but I don't see that as a valid one considering it isn't necessary for him to do that to throw PJ off.
