I think that the Blake Society was designed to hunt down people that escape the law, and that their recent purpose was to hunt and kill Red John, which is to say that Red John is not Blake Society and that the Blake Society is a vigilante group. If this is the case, then it is no wonder why Red John (Wayne Rigsby) is so scared when down in that basement at the end of the Golden Hammer episode. Ardiles must have stumbled onto the Blake Society list of names, so he was eliminated. ...Im still sticking to the idea that Wayne Rigsby is Red John.
