A brief introduction before I launch into my own theory- I'm Aeryn, 
from the U.S., and one of those "mature teenagers who may benefit 
from the group".

I also doubt the validity of this claim, since no one has yet 
produced a source.  Even if Rowling has not stated it herself, 
however, it's likely that a Weasley will die because of her attention 
to nomenclature.

In one of the ancient mythologies (I can't recall which one; they all 
tend to run together in my mind), a man named Weasley (Weasly in some 
variants) was killed by a rat.  I've always assumed this was one of 
Rowling's cruel namings and indicated that a Weasley would be 
murdered by Peter Pettigrew.

If no one can find a direct Rowling quote contributing to this 
theory, it could have originated from mythology instead, and, given 
Rowling's record with the matter, is likely accurate.
