  This is very logical...and that's the problem.  The Diggorys have just lost there son, they're not exactly thinking logically.  They may not even be thinking at all.  It's easy for us to see the situation for what it is, but 1)Diggory wasn't there when his son was killed, so he doesn't know exactly what happened, and therefore might be prone to believing any lies about the incident that Voldie might tell him...and 2)Diggory is most likely going to be angry and look for someone to blame.  He may not be thinking clearly enough to blame the nameless, faceless Deatheaters, when little Harry Potter is so visible.
