But once it was made an illegal group she could have easily gone and 
told them she wanted to back out (she would have had a perfectly good 
reason) or she could have asked Cho to do it. Just by signing she 
wasn't bound to HAVE to continue with it! She didn't! All the books 
are about choices Marrietta made hers and set off a bad chain of 
events because of it. I agree that she couldn't have really known 
what would happen but that doesn't excuse her actions. Plus do you 
really think after the events of OOTP Harry is really going to even 
give her a second thought after what happened at the MOM.
