Harry's parents really are dead

Sorry for the misunderstanding, but I meant do we KNOW that Voldemort was 
*THEE* killer...other than his 'downfall' I read no proof that Voldemort 
killed James and Lily, as no one really saw it, could someone else have done 
the deed?  We have the wand spell in book 4, but someone else could have used 
Vs wand. (Probably not, but its a possiblity.)

In PoA Sirius says he saw their bodies after Voldemort attacked.


"...The night they died....I set out for your parents' house straight 

away.  And when I saw their house, destroyed, and their bodies..."

(PoA 365 US Version)


I think this is pretty solid evidence that they did actually die. 

Even Peter says in POA that he told Voldy where they were hiding.  

It's a very long passage, so I won't write it all here, but you can 

read where Peter admits to telling on pages 374-375 of the US version 

of PoA.  I think from this can be taken that it _was_ Voldy who did 

it.  Besides, we _know_ he tried to kill Harry, but the spell bounced 

back, which caused him to lose his powers.  This is stated several 

times in various books and even by Voldy himself IIRC in GoF.  >>
