Red john is either kirklands twin brother ot van pelt . I believe the writing on the wall was suppose to read "she is man" . Van pelt is a very curious characer and besides all the clues, she simply has so much pain in his eyes. I believe its kirklands brother because he would smell like pine and his brother was sadistic in his own way so his bro could be crazy ass res john. The people saying its bertram are so clueless. Like seriously he cant even play poker !!! Sheriff macallister ? For f sake the list is fake!!' Thats the whole point of the list ! The list is fake so patrick can see who red john is. Its a chess move . And seriously partridge? The dude died and when patrick sayed "you really dont know do u" partridge really didnt know!! It was obvious. And haffner ? Come on he is such the opposite personality of red john its ridic . Reede smith! What! Wake up people this show is about twist!!! Duh!
