While watching the Mentalist and following the clues they led me to believe that Partridge was Red John. Naturally, I tried to tie the subsequent hints to him. I had my own theory on everything I could think of, to explain my instincts. Even on the list of 7, which posed more of the question why was it given to Jane at the time, rather than how did Red John know the list before Jane did.
The only thing I could never explain was how did Kristina Frye got zombiefied?
Any theories on that?
