Red John is the main fictional and antagonist character of the CBS The Mentalist's crime drama for the first five and half seasons of the sixth. As a serial killer, he is believed to have started his assassination in 1988, and, with his operatives and aides, killed more than 70 people in California, Nevada and Mexico, throughout his killings. Five years before the first episode, he killed his wife and daughter Patrick Jane (Simon Baker), making Jane his nemesis.
In the final of season 3, "Strawberries and Cream (Part 2)", Jane meets a man (played by Bradley Whitford) in a shopping mall convincing him that he is Red John and who he later killed. However, after this "cliffhanger" episode, during the first few episodes of season 4, Jane determines that the man she killed, Timothy Carter, although the psychopath killer itself, is not Red John but one of the many killer operations.
In Season 5 "Red Sails in the Sunset", Lorelei Martins (Emmanuelle Chriqui), a Red John operation, gets lost after Jane assures him that Red John kills his sister Miranda accidentally revealing to Jane that she has met Red John and shook his hand. Jane compiled a list of people whose hands had been shuffled and eventually narrowed the list to seven names. Lorelei, however, was arrested by Red John, whom he refused to name Jane, broke the promise he had made, and read a pre-mortem message from Red John threatening to kill "many" again until Jane catches Red John or vice versa. In Lorelei's message from Red John, he mentions seven men who depreciated Jane to be included in the list, suggesting that somehow Red John has entered into Jane's mind, though Red John does not deny being one of seven men.
In episode 6 of the "Red John" season, the identity of the eponymous serial killers is revealed to be Thomas McAllister , the Napa County sheriff, played by Xander Berkeley. After unmasking him for Patrick Jane, McAllister revealed that he is the founder and overall leader of the secret organization known as the Blake Association.

Character profile
Patrick Jane relentlessly pursues Red John, and finally in season 5 narrows the list of suspects to seven. The number of people in the series who claim to have met "Red John" is limited. Although Patrick Jane knows that she has met Red John and shakes her hand at some point, she only finds the true identity of Red John in mid-season 6.
Maps Red John
Other faces and signatures
As part of his criminal markings, Red John drew a smiling face on the wall with the blood of the victim - always clockwise (except when it was depicted in the skyline in "Red John's Footsteps"), using three fingers of rubber. gloved right hand. Jane says in the pilot episode, "Red John thinks of himself as a showman, an artist, he has a strong sense of theater... the first thing people see is a face on the wall.You see your first face and you" You know what happened and You feel scared. Then, and then you see the body of the victim. Always in that order. "
Jane uses this information to know that the murder by Red John is a copycat crime. Red John has twice painted the victims' nails with their own blood. Both are women. The first was Patrick Jane's wife, Angela; Red John wants to punish Jane for saying degrading things about her during a TV interview. Years later, knowing that the case would be intercepted by the California Bureau Investigation team and that his wife's death warning would anger Jane, Red John painted a young girl's toe nails, to bring Jane into the trap.
Red John's victims are mostly women, with some exceptions, such as Jared Renfrew (Todd Stashwick) in episode 1 of the "Red John's Friends" season, a man Jane helps to be released from prison on condition that he will provide Jane information on the existence of Red John. Worried Red John, the man escaped from Jane's prison before providing relevant information. Later that day, the man contacted Jane to explain that she would not get any further help, though this did not save Renfrew's life. Jane used the background sound of the conversation as a starting point to find this man, but Red John took her first, killing Renfrew and the whore named Renfrew. In episode 2 of the "Red Right Hand" season, it was revealed another man was killed when he interrupted his wife's murder in the hands of Red John. Jane believes this happened early in Red John's career and that Red John made a "mistake" because of her lack of experience. Jane believes Red John removed the corpse from the crime scene (something she did not do) to bury the mistake. In the second season of the final "Red Sky in the Morning", Red John and Jane meet when Red John rescues Jane from the kidnappers; But Red John wears a mask that covers his face. Red John also killed two kidnappers, one of whom was a male, but left a kidnapped kid kid to look like a criminal. In the 4th episode of the "Blinking Red Light" episode, Red John kills James Panzer, a blogger and serial killer known as the San Joaquin killer, after Panzer was beaten by Jane to insult Red John on television. Jane does this because she can not think of any other way to protect the public from Panzer.
In season 4 of the "Scarlet Ribbons" premiere, Patrick Jane says that Red John's victims are "almost all women, late at night, in their homes, he wakes them up first, because he likes to see fear in their eyes. pity when he cut them open. "
In the 2nd season episode of "The Scarlet Letter", Jane tells Senior Special Agent Sam Bosco (Terry Kinney) that "Red John does not make mistakes He does not leave a clue If you have new evidence, it's because he wants you to have it. 'What does that mean?', 'Why did he give it to you?' ".
Bruno Heller, the show's creator, has said that Red John is not a "sad loser hiding in the basement somewhere", and that Jane "does not fight the Green River Killer." He fights Moriarty. In addition, "Jane and the audience came to the gradual realization that this was a much bigger task than initially seen.It's like the Amazon tribes throwing spears on passing planes, then realizing that the plane is the seed of much more civilization big ones who come to them. "Like Moriarty, Red John has a network of agents, willing to kill or die for him. In a radio interview Heller also stated: "Red John is really just a personification of death, I mean that simple, Patrick Jane is very alive and eager to live in the face of death, and Red John is the destiny that awaits us all in the end."
Tyger Tyger Conspiracy: The Blake Association
In the final episode of season 2 of "Red Sky in the Morning", William Blake's theme was introduced, when someone, whom we believe at the time to be Red John, saved Patrick Jane from being killed under the direction of the crazy teaser Ruth and Dylan. Jane is tied up with a pack of suggestions to a chair and, while she can not move, Red John reads the first verse of William Blake's poem "Tyger Tyger":
In the next episode (season 3), Jane wonders about this but does not tell anyone that Red John reads it to her. In episode 9 of season 3 ("Red Moon"), the assassin of Todd Johnson police serial was burned alive. While in ICU, with Jane the only person present, Johnson whispers in his last breath "Tyger! Tyger!". This led Jane to conclude that there was a connection between Johnson and Red John, but he did not tell anyone about it.
During the next episode, it becomes clear that Red John also has an inside person in the CBI or himself works within the CBI. In "Red Queen" season 3, CBI's new director, Gale Bertram (Michael Gaston), also read William Blake. This time from another poem, called "A Cradle Song". The two lines he says are:
Jane was absent at the time of reading, but it was quite beyond the character for Bertram to read poetry, and the fact that it was poetry by the same author might be more than just a coincidence. Bertram was later revealed to be the final list of Jane's suspect Red John.
At the end of season 3, Jane told the whole team everything she knew and read out the first verse "Tyger Tyger". Kimball Cho knew the poem very well and recited the first two lines of the second verse:
When discussing what the poem meant, Cho said, "Well, God made a lamb, but he also made a tiger.You can not have light without darkness, life without death." This is also the mindset of members of Red John following to act on his orders. In Cho's interpretation, he refers to the third poem, and earlier by William Blake, called "The Lamb" which "Tyger Tyger" is a further response or reflection on the various parts of creation and the reason for them, as it begins in "Lamb". Actually, Blake himself refers to "Lamb" in "Tyger! Tyger!", In the last row of the fifth verse: Is he who made the Lamb make you?
In episode 6 of the "Red Listed" season, there is a revelation by Bob Kirkland (Kevin Corrigan) about what "Tyger Tyger" means. Kirkland reveals to FBI agent Reede Smith (Drew Powell) that corrupt officials use the term "Tyger, Tyger" to cover dirty work done under law enforcement. Smith pretended not to know anything about "Tyger Tyger" until he shot Kirkland in the back six times while pretending to free him from the transfer of prison, after which he told the driver, who came from the same organization, "Tyger Tyger". The driver replied with the same sentence.
In the 6th episode of "The Red Tattoo" season, a woman named Kira Tinsley (Beth Riesgraf) is killed by a man with a three-point tattoo - he reveals this to Jane in his final moments. Jane, believes that the man who killed Tinsley was Red John, collected the remaining five Red John suspects into one location (in "Fire and Brimstone"), only to find that three suspects had the same tattoo from three dots, revealing that they were all part of the corrupt Tyger Tyger group of officials.
In the 6 season episode of "The Great Red Dragon", Smith decides to surrender after the same organization he is part of an attempt to kill him, in the same way he killed Bob Kirkland. Once he was alone with Lisbon and Jane, he revealed that he was a member of The Blake Association (whose name was first revealed), that they used the phrase "Tyger, Tyger" to identify fellow members, and that Red John was also a member of the Association. He explains how he came to join the Association after accidentally shooting a 12-year-old girl. The Association promises to clear his name and protect him if he agrees to join them and follow instructions given to him, including murder.
Victim
The disciples or Red John's operations are willing and ready to help him, including in murder attempts to sabotage investigations or influence events. Almost all die after serving their purpose. These include:
- Anonymous policemen - Officers shot in the chest by Dumar Tanner, Red John's first accomplice son, Orville Tanner. Dumar was shot moments later by Jane. Sam Bosco, Nick Martinez, and Mark Dyson - The new team replaces Jane to lead the Red John investigation. They were all murdered by Bosco secretary Rebecca Anderson, who told Jane: "Red John thinks you'll understand, I got rid of Bosco and his team so you can get back the case.Red John misses you. And that is what do you want as well, is not it? "
- Todd Johnson - a Red John partner who has killed several police officers, including his own uncle.

- Gale Bertram - The CBI director was killed by Blake Association member Oscar Cordero in the episode "Red John", just before the original Red John revealed himself to Jane.
Appearances, accomplices, and impersonators
Face-to-face
At the start of the series, Red John was originally known as a serial killer who tortured and killed most women, with at least eleven victims confirmed by the series premiere. However, the personality of Red John will become much more mysterious because any individual who will approach any important information disclosure about the murderer to Jane will die alone, implying that Red John is much more than just a regular serial killer and has a deep connection. across the state. It will then be revealed that Red John has many followers who see him as the savior who gave their lives the goal and volunteered to help him in various plans and murders in gratitude for what he gave them, which could range from a new life. , work, or some form of compensation. His followers not only help him, but adore him and willingly give their lives for his cause, refuse to ever reveal any information about their leader or how they meet him. Jane soon realized that Red John was stronger than she had ever imagined, had connections in law enforcement and a whole cult of brainwashed followers under her complete control and on her calls and vocations.
The character of Red John himself remains largely invisible from the beginning. His face was limited in the shadows as he escaped from the abandoned house at the end of the first season. He may appear as a lean and dark-haired CHP motorcycle officer (blue turtleneck, not a blue tie) to poison Rebecca using his left hand in his "Red Right Hand"; in the same episode, he is also seen in the flashback. At the end of the second season, "Red Sky in the Morning", a man who claimed Red John appeared in the flesh, wearing a black T-shirt, apron and pants, black rubber gloves, a pair of charcoal boots, and strange rubber. mask covering his face, making him look a bit like what many believe in real life serial killers Jack the Ripper appeared during his murder hunt. In that episode, Red John saves Jane from two student filmmakers who have committed the murder of Red John.
During the meeting, Red John hides his face behind the mask, preventing Jane from identifying himself. Before leaving Jane, Red John read the first verse "The Tyger" by William Blake (see above). This poem is alluded to repeatedly throughout the series, before and after being revealed to Jane, with its contents being the backbone of the Red John philosophy (implying the reason why it is his favorite poem) of no such life without death or light without darkness, something which he say to his followers to bring them into the right mindset for their killing and exploitation.
There are further developments in season 5. In "Red Sails in the Sunset", Lorelei Martins reveals, in a moment of annoyance, that Red John is someone Jane recognizes by telling her that she and Red John are very similar and she is shocked that they are not become friends "as soon as they shake hands". This prompted Jane to compile a list of people she had shaken hands, which would eventually be narrowed down to seven names.
Todd Johnson and Red John impersonator
In the episode "Red Moon", Jane exposes an EMT worker, Todd Johnson (Josh Braaten), as a serial killer. Once locked in a cell of detention at CBI headquarters, Johnson says he will only talk to Jane, as he claims only Jane will understand what he is saying. When the guard returns with Jane, Johnson has been burned and floundering fire. On his deathbed, Johnson says "Tyger Tyger" to Jane, indicating that he is in some ways connected to Red John. The reasons behind Todd Johnson's police assassination are unclear, but the later seasons along with Johnson's knowledge of the phrase "Tyger, Tyger" would imply that their deaths in some way connected with the "Blake Association". Red John most likely ordered Johnson to kill various police officers who were close to finding his community or his own members (perhaps indicating why one of Johnson's victims was burned alive, presumably to hide the organization's tattoo, marked on all members to better ensure loyalty) that fail to complete their order or plan to change themselves, and associate with extension, to the authorities.
When Johnson realized that Red John would never let him live when he was in custody and surrounded by potentially corrupt officials, he was ready to reveal everything he knew to Jane, before he himself was killed by another Red John agent, but still managed to pronounce the form the community's main communication to Jane. Jane then starts her own secret investigation to track down the killer. Red John, meanwhile, decides to seize the opportunity to use Johnson's killing as a means to target others close to Jane and also mask the identity of the true killer Johnson, who also serves as his secret informant at the CBI. Meanwhile, Special Agent J.J. LaRoche (Pruitt Taylor Vince) starts working hard to find Johnson's killer. He eventually suspected Madeleine Hightower's Supervisory Agency (Aunjanue Ellis), because the evidence DNA that Jane believed had been planted by Red John or one of her minions. With Jane's help, Hightower's escape stage is hostile and advised by Jane to remain in hiding, not only to escape the police but because of the danger imposed by Red John. Hightower went to live with his sister.
In the final of season 3, "Strawberries and Creams - Part 2", the mole was identified as fiancee Grace Van Pelt, FBI Agent Craig O'Laughlin (played by Eric Winter); O'Laughlin tried to kill Hightower and instead shot Lisbon, and then he was shot dead by Hightower and Van Pelt together. At a mall, after Gale Bertram (Michael Gaston) goes out in anger because Jane is wasting his time. Jane, calling with Lisbon during the shootout, tells her to use O'Laughlin's cell phone to call back the last number and tell the person who replies that O'Laughlin is dead. When Lisbon did so, the phone rang near Jane and was answered by a man (Timothy Carter, played by Bradley Whitford) reading the paper and speaking in a strange and high-pitched voice. After ending the call, Jane approached the man and questioned him. At first, the man looks annoyed and threatens to call security, but then smiles and says he's joking and claims he is Red John. The two talks; The man reveals to Jane that he has a gun hidden in the folded newspaper and declares that he is tired of killing and wants to start a new life, and encourages Jane to do the same. Jane says she will not be able to continue until Red John dies. The man begins to leave, but at the urging of Jane answering a question, revealing details about Jane's wife and daughter that Jane mistakenly assumes only Red John knows. Jane vengeously shoots Carter with the gun he hid in his pocket. In season 4, Carter proved to be an operative swindler of Red John.
Red John is still blurred
Referring to the end of season 3, the creator of the series, Bruno Heller, has stated: "What you get from that scene is what you should get in. The audience should be convinced.Patrick Jane believes it's Red John... The problem is, Red John is the master of the mind game.If Red John wants to die, maybe this is how he wants to die, or maybe he just wants Jane to think he's dead. "
In season 4 the premiere revealed that Ron Deutsch, the bald security officer at the mall, was a Red John operation that wiped out important evidence from the scene. Jane came to believe that the man she shot was not Red John, but Timothy Carter, a sad businessman who, along with his twisted wife Sally, had kidnapped a young woman Debbie Lupine, who in her search for the couple pretended to be ostensibly join. Jane Sally's trick to reveal the girl's location. Sally was captured by Lisbon and detained, not heard from again, because she committed suicide in prison. Jane assures the jury that Carter is Red John and is released, though Jane already begins to have doubts about it.
In the "Little Red Book", Lisbon arranges a meeting with Agent J.J. LaRoche, apparently leaving the Main Evil, to see Sally Carter, who committed suicide by slitting her wrist with a sharp spoon, left a note of how lost she is now because her "God" (which she probably means Timothy Carter) is dead. But Jane, still not satisfied Carter is Red John, bringing Rosalind Harker, a blind woman who has a relationship with Red John, to identify Carter's body. He felt his face and told him that he had never met the man before, justifying Jane's suspicion that Red John "is still out there".
Investigation of James Panzer and Susan Darcy
In the episode "Blinking Red Light", it is now widely believed that Red John is dead, with Jane and Lisbon the only one aware of him still alive. One person who believes Red John to die is James Panzer, a blogger who pretends to devote his life to finding a serial killer known as the "San Joaquin Killer" (abbreviated SJK, which has killed at least five young women). In fact, Panzer is the killer. Jane suspects Panzer but initially has no proof to expose it. When she and Panzer appear on Karen Cross's television talk show on the SJK case, Jane acknowledges that Panzer should be stopped and Panzer goads to compare Red John with SJK. Panzer climbed into the decoy, making a bold statement that SJK's murder was the work of a genius and Red John by comparison was "common sociopath, lazy, careless, delusional" and had forgotten since Jane killed him. Panzer then makes the same mistake made by Jane and Kristina Frye: underestimating Red John in public forums. A few hours after the television appearance, Panzer was found murdered, with a smeary face of Red John painted with blood on one wall near his body. Panzer's murder proves Jane's theory that Red John is alive. This makes the ninth male victim of Panzer Red John.
On the episode of "Always Bet on the Red", the FBI has investigated Panzer's murder and believes that Red John's imitation is now active. The responsible agent, Susan Darcy (Catherine Dent), starts pressing Jane to confirm that she killed Red John. At the moment, Red John is shown stalking Darcy through a video uploaded titled "I Dare You" on the Major Crime server, which shows him in his apartment, unaware that he's being filmed. Cameraman uploaded the proverbial infobox, "He's cute, it'll be fun". Jane reluctantly framed the late Thomas Maier, Panzer's first victim's father, for killing Panzer in revenge for the SJK victim - Maier recently committed suicide. The FBI closes his case, maybe leaving Darcy safely, as he might lower his request.
In the episode "Red is the New Black", Jane's efforts were later exposed and canceled when Darcy refused to let the case go after finding too many differences. Darcy interviewed Rosalind Harker, a former blind boyfriend of Red John and also a morgue brought by Timothy Carter's body to follow his death. Darcy then realizes that Red John is alive even though Jane continues to cheat. Later, Harker contacted Jane and happily revealed that Red John, once again under the alias "Roy Tagliaferro", had come to visit him for tea, promised to "fix the problem" with Jane and Darcy. When Harker was on the phone, a tall man, holding a tea cup in his left hand, and dressed in smart dark clothes, sitting near him; Harker, when asked, confirmed that "Roy" was present and listening.
Jane, afraid Red John will kill Harker, warn Lisbon and Darcy, and they proceed to his home with the FBI SWAT team. Upon arrival, they find Harker alive and unharmed, playing his own piano, looking sad that Red John "can not stay". Darcy noticed a trail of blood that led to a nearby closet, which, when opened, revealed the body being killed from the mortuary clerk, confirming that Red John was alive, either following Darcy or by access to the information in his file and/or his arrival and off. All of Red John's files were sent to Darcy by CBI Director Wainwright, who was later killed shortly by Red John or a Red John opera.
The ninth anniversary of Jane's wife and her daughter's death
In the last second episode of "Red Rover, Red Rover" season, Jane receives a message from Red John: an envelope with the words "Happy Anniversary" under her car eraser. At the grave where Jane's wife and daughter were buried, a little girl named Hailey (Emma Rayne Lyle) approached her and said, "Hello, Patrick." When Patrick asked how he knew his name, he said, "Your friend told me," and revealed a smiling red face in his hand. He said, "He told me to ask a question... 'Have you not given up yet?'" Hailey told Patrick the man was white, wearing a baseball cap, and had a strange voice. Lisbon tells Patrick that Red John wants to play with his mind. Later in the episode, Patrick burned all of the CBI files of Red John, probably out of desperation, and the next morning said, "He's right... it's time to give up... nothing works No, it's just a game, and he keeps winning. The only way for me to stop it is if I stop playing. "
Jane's description and Red John's proposal
At the end of season 4 "The Crimson Hat", after being fired from CBI, Jane finds herself in a Las Vegas bar, where she meets an attractive woman named Lorelei (Emmanuelle Chriqui). He was arrested. Lorelei redeemed her, and they both had sex at Jane's apartment. The next day, Lorelei reveals himself as Red John's partner and says his presence in Jane's life is "a gift". He put forward the Red John proposal for friendship and 'change' in Jane's lifestyle to help her overcome her depression. Jane was startled and told Lorelei to get out. However, he later confessed to Lisbon that the details had been adjusted to make Red John believe that Patrick really gave up. Red John communicates through Lorelei that he will only meet Jane personally if he kills Lisbon and makes it a "gift". The CBI team executed a plot in which they falsified the murder of Lisbon and Rigsby in the hands of Jane, and the team hid. Hearing this on the news, Red John sent a message to Jane to meet him in Nevada. Darcy is investigating the real deaths of Lisbon and Rigsby. He discovered that the corpse that was found did not belong to Rigsby and received an arrest warrant issued to the entire team involved in the fraud.
Meanwhile, a limo pulled up in a quiet street where Jane waited. Lorelei and a large gunman emerge from the car, and he claims Red John is inside. Lorelei saw the box Jane had brought and asked if it contained a ball or cabbage. He tells her it is a melon, especially melon. He did not react angrily, apparently since Red John (and thus he) became aware of Jane's scam. Lorelei has his assistant defeated Jane "a little". Jane sits in the front seat of the limo while the dark figure and shadow sits behind who her voice is distorted with the radio transmitter, and whose face is invisible, greets Jane. She tells Jane that she was fooled for a while by Jane's plot but was told about the truth by "good friends" inside the FBI. At this time, Lisbon and his team, who moved and captured Red John, were captured by Darcy and his troops. Lisbon, who was handcuffed by the side of the road, told Darcy about the plans and dangers that would affect Jane's life. Just as Lorelei would reluctantly punish Jane by cutting two fingers, the CBI and FBI teams arrive. Jane appeared unscathed. FBI fire bullets in escaped limos, which stopped. Lorelei was arrested unharmed, even though the rider/guard was killed. Darcy opened the back door, revealing CBI Director Luther Wainwright, lying and dead, with a cell phone stuck to his body. Lorelei was interrogated at CBI by Jane and Lisbon. He refuses to talk about Red John but tells Lisbon that he and Jane have lovers, calling Jane "lover" often. Jane tells Lorelei that she will finally reveal what she knows and walks out of the room, ending season 4.
Lorelei Martins
In the episode 5 of "Red Sails in the Sunset" season, Lorelei Martins reappears in a women's prison, after being expelled from CBI prison by the FBI. He remained loyal to Red John, and when Jane (with the help of Bret Stiles (Malcolm McDowell) had released him from prison, he revealed the shock and disappointment that his liberator was Jane, not Red John.Joe finds Lorelei previously had a sister, who killed several the previous year Lisbon sent him a photo of a crime scene where the word "ROY" could be seen written on the floor beside the sister's body - information that had been withheld from the public at the time of the murder. It showed Jane that Red John (who had used the alias Roy Tagliaferro) was a murderer, the fact that Jane reveals to Lorelei, who, angry at Jane's previous scam, tells him that "You're like him, you know that? Unending manipulation... I'm just wondering why you two have not become lifelong friends since you shake hands. "This Lorelei slip shows that Jane has met with Red John in the past. However, Lorelei refuses to trust Jane about his murderer, Asks Jane where the outs are, the CBI starts to approach the couple, but Jane lets Lorelei escape, telling her to "discover the truth" for herself and return to her when she realizes Red John uses it.
Lorelei reappears in episode 16 of season 5, "There Will Be Blood". This episode reveals two new hands of Red John: Julia Howard and Jason Lennon, respected citizens, workers and guardians of the sanctuary of women, respectively. Lorelei tortures Julia to get information about her sister's death. He killed Howard after brutally beating him. After Lorelei comes after Lennon, Jane appears to try to save Lennon (for Jane's personal purposes) and to acknowledge Lennon and Red John's involvement in the murder of Miranda Martins. Lorelei shot Lennon, who critically injured him. After kissing Jane, he set out on a mission to kill Red John, breaking his agreement to reveal the identity of Red John. She tells Jane she has done "far worse [than breaking promises]", and that she and Jane both will go to hell "on two different paths". Two weeks later, Lennon was revealed to have survived the shooting, albeit in a coma, while Lorelei was found dead under Red John's smiley face with Homeland Security and police on the scene. Jane apologizes to her body but, still annoyed that Lorelei broke her promise to identify Red John, telling Lisbon (from Lorelei), "She has come."
Visualize
In the episode of the fifth season "The Red Barn", it is hinted that Red John may or may be a member of the "Visualize the Self Realization Center" church, a well-known cult with a reputation for brainwashing its members, as two bodies that match the MO found on a farm previously controlled by Visualize, complete with his smiling signature face on the outside of the shed where the bodies were found. The murder was revealed more than two decades ago, when various Visualize members worked on the farm until the final cessation due to lack of farming skills, and ten years before Red John was an active serial killer targeting most women. This means that Red John uses his cult and techniques to recruit individuals who will make appropriate followers (as many Visualize members come from broken families and traumatic childhood, the nature that almost every Red John operative also shares), then brainwashing or tempting them to control them effectively. This ultimately explains how Red John recruited so many followers over the years who adore him and who is willing to give their lives for his plans.
Rebecca Anderson, a faithful Red John activist who killed Sam Bosco and his team under his orders before he himself was killed by Red John, revealed that Red John "opened his eyes to the truth" and allowed him to see the world for what it really is. This is similar to the Visualize motto that opens the eyes of prospective members to the truth to recruit them effectively, implying that Red John uses the same philosophy to recruit his followers. Visualization is also known for teaching its members diverse and diverse skills, such as bomb-making and advanced technology and computer usage, the skills that Red John himself and many of his followers also feature throughout the series. In a later episode, a private detective named Kira Tinsley, employed by Red John to spy on CBI, mentioned that it was a member of Visualize who hired him, confirming that Red John is still a functioning member of the organization. The cult leader, Bret Stiles, has pointed out in previous seasons that he has a very deep understanding of how Red John works, hinting at the relationship between the two, which seems to finally be revealed as Visualization. Whether Bret Stiles really knows the identity of Red John seems to be debatable throughout the series, but the next episode implies that, although Stiles may know Red John is connected to his organization, he does not know which member he is currently using and only his own. resources to monitor the activities of the killers.
Bob Kirkland and Homeland Security
Robert "Bob" Kirkland, introduced in retcon episode "Red Dawn", has been involved in various suspicious activities related to Jane and Jane looking for Red John. In a flashback just after Jane joined the CBI, a man looks thankful to FBI Director Alexa Shultz for asking Virgil Minelli to keep the FBI updated on Red John's investigation. Several episodes later, the man reappears. He identifies himself as Homeland Security Agency Bob Kirkland, telling Lisbon that Tommy Volker's problems are being addressed and that he should "take a step back".
After he left his office, he came to Jane. Both hands shook hands, and Kirkland told Jane that she knew him, even though Jane did not know Kirkland. In the next episode, Lorelei Martins told Jane that she had met and shook hands with Red John. In the episode "Red Sails in the Sunset" and "There Will Be Blood", Kirkland and Homeland Security look very interested to find Red John's footman, Lorelei Martins, when he commits mass murder. Neither CBI nor Homeland Security found Lorelei before he was found murdered under the face of the Red John trademark smileys. When Jason Lennon (who claimed to be the accomplice of Red John) woke up from an induced coma, he was interviewed by Kirkland. He told Kirkland that he remembered who shot him but said he did not recognize Kirkland. Kirkland then kills Lennon with the injection, making him look like Lennon has died of his injuries. Kirkland told Jane that Lennon "never said a word" before dying.
In the episode of "Red Letter Day", Kirkland has two Homeland Security agents enter the attic where Jane works (and sometimes lives) at the CBI. They took pictures of information about the Red John that Jane exhibited. Kirkland was able to reproduce almost the same version of Jane's bulletin board on Red John, possibly including a reference to Kirkland himself as a suspect. Jane had a suspicion that she was being watched and realized that her room had been damaged because she saw the toothpick that she had left lately between the door and the frame lying on the floor where it had fallen after the Kirkland man had entered the place, never noticing it.
Kirkland reappears in episode 4 of season 6. She is held responsible for murdering names on the list of suspected Red John stolen people from Jane. Once he finds out that the list is fake from Jane, he kidnaps her. In the warehouse where he was kept, it also showed that Richard Haibach was there, one of the men suspected of being the "Killer of San Joaquin." Jane is saved by Hightower and Lisbon, and Kirkland is captured. On the way to the prison, his vehicle was withdrawn by FBI Agent Reede Smith. Smith told him that the quote "Tyger, Tyger" was used by California's law enforcement officers. Smith is one of them. When he gave Kirkland the address to a safe house, he then shot him to death as he ran to his freedom. He and the driver cover it up and before leaving say, "Tyger, Tyger." While Kirkland initially monitors Jane through his connections at the FBI and examines Red John on his own accord, Kirkland's findings into the existence of this criminal organization allow him to authorize Homeland Security to publicly investigate Red John, as he is suspected of being a member of the organization, which could pose a threat to national security and acts of terrorism.
Seven suspects
At the end of the fifth season, Jane revealed to Lisbon that she had narrowed down the list of Red John's suspects to seven names. Although the names were not revealed until the end of the episode, Jane and CBI investigated the murder of Red John. Although it was initially believed that Red John was not involved in the murder, and that it was the husband or uncle of the victim, it was revealed that Red John committed the murder with the help of Miriam Gottlieb, a social worker who wanted Eileen Turner. child. Gottlieb tricked Turner into separating himself from her volatile husband and moving to a motel, where Red John attacked. On the way after his arrest, Gottlieb committed suicide by swallowing cyanide pills, refusing, like almost any Red John surgery, to take alive. Prior to his arrest, he gave Jane DVD from Red John, featuring Lorelei Martins who is now dead, who recorded the video shortly before his own killing by Red John. Martins revealed that Red John was furious with him for revealing that Patrick and Red John had shaken hands, and that, instead he made the recording, Red John would not "make him suffer so much". The video reveals that Red John somehow knows the names of seven suspects Patrick Jane:
Red John does not deny being one of these people. The murder of Eileen Turner marks the beginning of a new killing when Lorelei informs Jane that Red John will "start killing again... often" until Jane catches her, or she catches Jane. Frustrated, Jane wrecked the DVD with her own fingers, and sighed as she looked out her window at the CBI. To be the last suspect, every character must have 'red' or 'reed' (a name meaning 'red') in the name of a character or actor (such as Reed Diamond, Reede Smith, Xan (der) Berkeley), or the name Bret or Bert ( (Bret) Stiles, Brett Partridge, Ro (bert) Kirkland, and Gale (Bert) ram), right when the right woman and man of Red John's right arm have to 'red' backwards in their name (Son Rebecca An (der) and Oscar Cor (der) o).
Final hunt
In premiere season 6, Jane is very disturbed how Red John can conclude who she will have on her final list two months before finishing it, and has so much knowledge about her memory and thought process. Due to missing what to do, Jane remains very cautious around the seven suspects while Lisbon walks behind her back and has all the suspect mobile phones fitted with GPS trackers.
Angered that Lisbon goes behind his back and plays into the hands of Red John, Jane and Lisbon have fallen, with Lisbon finally going to an abandoned house after receiving an anonymous tip at 5570 West Huron Street. He calls SAC-PD; however, when she arrived at the address, a woman on the phone informed them that they were temporarily unavailable. He then heard a faint scream inside and entered. Inside, he discovers the body of a mutilated Brett Partridge, chanting "Tyger, Tyger", before dying, effectively revealing that he is not Red John. It was revealed that Red John called anonymous tip, kidnapped and placed Partridge inside the house to torture and kill him, knowing that Lisbon tracked down the suspects' calls and would arrive after learning that Partridge was home. He kidnaps her and then uses her phone to call Jane, who had previously tried to call Lisbon to apologize for their previous arguments, and taunt her as she painted her smiling signature face on her face with Partridge's blood.
However, Jane and the authorities find Lisbon, who seems to have been left unharmed by Red John, confusing her and Jane. When Jane contemplates how Red John can have a deep knowledge of her past and her memory, she concludes that Red John must have access to someone with such knowledge: Sophie Miller, Jane's old psychiatrist, who helped her regain her mental health after she suffered damage after the killing of his family. After repeated attempts to communicate with Sophie failed, Jane visits her home, only to find her head cut off in the kitchen oven, revealing her to be one of the victims of Red John.
When it was revealed that Red John stole Sophie's personal files on her patients, Jane concluded that Red John most likely came to her under the guise of a patient to examine her. However, Red John did not know that Sophie used an audio device to record her thoughts about her patients, using her unique ability to read people even if they tried to hide their true emotions and personalities. Finding an entry dedicated to a man with the last name "Roth" (a word meaning 'red'), aka Red John when visiting Sophie, Jane listens to a detailed description of John Red's internal work; he seems to have a case of acrophobia *, and/or other phobias, middle-aged, healthy, has no family but many friends, is a great speaker, has good posture, is an extraordinary seducer, has a narcissism, and seems to hide something dark inside her. With this knowledge, Jane is one step ahead of Red John with additional descriptions to narrow down the list of six suspects.
Kirkland's ambition and last hint
As Jane watched the remaining six suspects, Robert Kirkland began using the information he stole from Jane's room at the CBI from the previous season to list Red Susan's own suspects and start kidnapping, torturing and killing them. Kirkland did not know that Jane was deliberately giving false evidence in her room when someone stole information pointing to seven people, all of whom were bad people, but not Red John. Jane learns from Hightower, who forged the death of herself and her family to continue hiding from Red John, that Kirkland has been watching Jane through her connections with the FBI for nearly a decade because she believes she may be Red John.
Jane visits Kirkland in Homeland and informs her of her trickery, which lured Kirkland to take her hostage and take her to her brother's barn, where she has tortured a fake Red John suspect. Kirkland reveals to Jane that she also wants revenge on Red John because she killed her twin sister (explaining why she asked all of Red's colleagues if she confessed her face to confirm if they knew her brother), Michael, who was persuaded to join her ranks. after their mother committed suicide to escape from their rough father, who then drank herself to death. Kirkland has never heard from his brother again, and has since devoted himself to using his position and resources to find Red John and kill him.
However, Lisbon and Hightower find both and hold Kirkland before he can obtain names from Jane. With only five remaining suspects on the list, Jane tells Kirkland that she will see this to the end and will visit her to learn all the other things she knows about Red John with Kirkland agreeing to do so. On the way to the prison, the transfer van was forced to pull over by Reede Smith, who approached Kirkland and confirmed the theory Kirkland had earlier mentioned to him that day: there was a very large secret organization (later revealed as "The Blake Association") scattered in various agencies government, where members cover each other if they perform illegal operations or unethical practices.
Smith revealed that he was a member and suggested to Kirkland that he should join, because he and his boss had been watching for a while to join. The fact, however, is that Smith was ordered by his superiors in the organization to kill Kirkland because he knew too much to live on. Regardless, Kirkland refused, believing Red John was among their ranks, and preferred to be killed instead; Reede obeyed and shot him with the guard's gun that piloted the transfer van as Kirkland began to run to make it look like an attempt to escape the wrong. Reede and the guards then sang "Tyger, Tyger" to each other, passwords used among members of the conspiracy organization. This implies that Red John may be a member of a government organization or, at least, have a deep knowledge of its inner workings. Kirkland was murdered before this information could be communicated to Jane.
After Kirkland's death, Red John took a drastic step to find out what Jane knew about herself by hiring a private detective named Kira Tinsley to disrupt the CBI. When Jane discovers the bug and concludes that it was abandoned by Kira, who pretended to be interested in Agent Kimball Cho, he realizes that Red John is now hunting to kill him. After using his expertise to plant the chips used to castrate the CBI in Tinsley's wallet, the CBI realizes that Red John has visited him and can hear him being killed through the transmitter. Jane and Lisbon rushed to save her and arrived just as Tinsley was about to die. However, before Tinsley died, he whispered to Jane that Red John had a tattoo on his left shoulder (implying that the meaning of past clues 'he is mar' which means 'he is marked') and drawing it in his own blood, showing three dots, followed by Jane to avoid anyone who knew what Tinsley had told her.
Blake Association
Knowing about the tattoo and using it as his leverage, Jane plans to collect the five remaining suspects in her old house where she has ammunition. He plans to pull each suspect individually, telling them that he has important information about Red John. Jane promises Lisbon that she can accompany her during this process, but breaks her promise as she worries about her safety. After five suspects together, Jane tells them that one of them is Red John. He pulled out his rifle and asked them all to lay down their weapons on the floor. He then revealed what Tinsley had to say about tattoos and asked the men to reveal their left shoulders. First to reveal are Raymond Haffner and Bret Stiles, who do not have tattoos. Sheriff Thomas McAllister revealed his arms and tattoos, three dots, exactly as Tinsley explained. Jane moves to take a closer look at who she believes is the real Red John before Bret Stiles shows her to see Gale Bertram and Reede Smith, who both have the same tattoo as the sheriff. Now three men have the same tattoo, a new window is opened to identify who Red John is; and whether Red John also has a tattoo. It is believed that the people who own this tattoo are corrupt government officials who use the phrase "Tyger, Tyger" to cover up their works that violate the law.
When Jane collects them in her home, the house explodes with the five suspects of Red John and Jane still inside. The police arrived, and Lisbon entered the house to find Reede Smith. He identifies the tattoo and shoots Smith, injures him, but he escapes. Lisbon then sees Bertram and tells him that Smith is Red John. Bertram slipped away because only Jane at this point knows she has a tattoo. Unconscious Jane fell asleep at the hospital and Bertram tried to kill him before being bullied by Lisbon. Like Jane b
