*If* there is a spy, and *if* it is someone really close to Harry (as 
opposed to being a member of Dumbledore's Army/the Order of the Phoenix/the 
Ministry of Magic), then I agree with you, but not for the reasons you gave.

Voldemort is quite capable of realizing (especially with Wormtail's help) 
that Molly has a weakness he can exploit.  If he started communicating with 
her quietly and threatening her children, she would probably be too 
frightened to defy him, and also afraid to tell the Order or her husband 
because they might do something to provoke Voldemort to hurt one of the 
children.  And it would work even better if Voldemort pointed out that one 
of Molly's children was not only out of her protection, but under his 
(Voldemort's) influence and he could get at him anytime he wanted to ... (If 
Percy ever found out that Voldemort was using him that way, he might 
actually Get A Clue and redeem himself.)  And no matter who else was killed, 
as long as it wasn't any member of Molly's family, she could persuade 
herself she was doing the right thing.  Until, of course, the next time he 
tried to kill Harry.

However, I personally think it's going to be Fudge.
