I'm choosing brett stiles and i'm sticking with him as being red john.
you might say but he is too old...or his voice doesn't match.,,
then explain to me why brett stiles is one of the 7 suspects
and not water washburn.
1.his body matches rj when he is talking to rosalind
and when says the tiger tiger poem in the season finale and we see his legs.
2.brunno heller said:rj is like waldo and some clues are fake.(IN SEPARATE interviews)
3.women do anything for rj...rosalind could've lied about
roy's tagliaferro physical description...
or roy could be one person
invented by rj..just like timothy carter...he only existed like for 5 or 9 nine
years before that timothy never existed.my guess is roy tagliaferro was only invented by rj in season 1 in order to lure patrick into the cabin,same way she lure patrick to the dvd.so in a way rj invented roys  name
and roys physical description so making rj a completely diferent person
 with different physical description thus making stiles and the sheriff
 being possible suspects.this is the
perfect disguies as most people wont think of him as red john.
4-his voice can be disguised with a voice changer or something
and get rid of the accent easyly as him being a showman
with a strong sense of theater...simon does..he gets rid of the
australian accent at will have you seen of of his interviews?
5.when he meets patrick in season 2 they dont shake hands but
they treatened each other..jane even says to his face
that he is a big fat liar.so they were not friends.
6.i never really understood the reason behind the whole hightower fiasco
until i saw red all over episode.stiles was really pissed at patrick
and especially hightower and even told her not to push her luck.
and we all know what rj does when he is pissed...he kills.
which explains why she was framed in the todd johnson case.
6."i wouln't want you to mistake me for red john and shoot me " 4x16
7.bruno heller "we're not bringing in an unknown actor or a midrange
actor to play red john. nobody in the 7 suspects list comes
even to close to Malcolm McDowell's talent.
8.4x16 patrick-you always manipulate somebody to doing your dirty work.(just like rj)
       stiles--something you would know  a little bit about,
       getting red john to killing the san joaquin killer
       that was very nice almost elegant i must say.
       tell me how is rosalind harker enjoying life under
        fbi protection.is she glad that you brought rj
        back into her life.
9..rj doesn't have friends he has puppets,rj doesn't
   makes mistakes if he gives you a clue is not what
   does it mean ,but why did he gave it to you.rj or brett stiles
   plan all along was to used rosalind or brainwash her so when the time came
 of patrick searching for rj rosalind would give patrick a fake clue.
roy's tagliaferro physical description.
10..4x16 " i don't own any properties certainly not under my name "
11..4x16 watch the scene when brett is talking to valpelt in the cell,
    same shoes and legs or body like rj.
12.brett knew about vanpelts landlord,just like shawn barlow knew
   about lisbon's feelings for patrick (powers)brett could've
   easily find patrick's happy memory WATCH THE SCENE 4X16
people seem to believe everything they see...as seen in 4x16 stiles
is always hidding something or not telling everything as seen when he
is talking to his lawyer....also patrick isn't always telling everything and
keeps information to himself even from lisbon....also some people seemed
puzzled as to how rj got the info for in order to figure out the suspects...
to me i dont thing he got it from kirkland...the minute he killed the guy in the
hospital he came off of my list,i think he has a different agenta or motives
for killing the guy...think about it who is close to patrick jane and has been
asking time and time again about the list ever since patrick started writting
on the notebook?we all know she doesn't have a poker face.as they are getting close to rj it is clear that she has a connection to rj and has tried to hide for a long long time as she stated she has many secrets odds are 100 to 1 she will make a mistake next time she is around gale bertram...how did rj knew about the list??????
somebody had to seen all the red john files way before kirland either by entering the room before kirkland,or placing cameras OR MY FAVORITE THEORY as far as i know only TWO persons had all the red john files at one point or another....SAM BOSCO AND fbi agent Luther wainwright...he looked very suspicious when he had the files in his office..so he could have kept the info and shared this with rj way before he was killed....so rj had plenty of time to gather the clues and figure it out.so rj had the files for a long time and as soon as he knew about patrick making a list he started putting the clues together way before patrick did.....makes sense to me.
