ARGUMENTATION

So I'm curious about something.  Most of the theories I've read on Bertram ignore Rosalind Harker's physical profile of RJ, either unintentionally or intentionally.  May I ask why?  Her account of Roy Tagleofera was the very first piece of evidence about RJ.  Jane was absolutely sure Roy was RJ.  He even brought Rosalind to the morgue in season 4 to make sure the man he shot in the cafe wasn't RJ.  Even Dumar, the sheriff who wound up being the killer in "Red John's Footsteps" confirmed that Roy was really RJ.  So again I ask, why are so many people ignoring the physical profile?

Okay, think about this.  In season 1 finale, Rosalind gives us the physical profile for RJ.  2 episodes later, we meet Bertram for the first time.  He's six ft 3 and bald.  If Bertram is RJ, that would imply Bruno Heller decided 2 episodes after giving us our first evidence of RJ, he would introduce the "real" Red John who doesn't fit the evidence...  Really?  Is that not an incredibly convoluted idea?

Anywho, I would like some people's thoughts about Bertram.  Comment below if you have a theory that might explain away Rosalind Harker's description.
