Is Voldemort a bit paranoid? Though I have no canon for it except
his secretiveness, I think so. If it's given that he's paranoid,
then
Would the Dark Lord hide all the true Horcruxes, or would he leave a
fake one for any looking for them so that the searcher would assume
the locket was destroyed as the note indicated? To make this seem
even more authentic perhaps he possessed or cast Imperious on RAB to
write the note. He then had or killed RAB.
I would think that Voldemort would want to have Slytherin's Locket
close to him because the Locket belonged to both Slytherin and his
mom. Its significance is obvious.
I think Bella is or was responsible for it:
Bella: `The Dark Lord has, in the past, entrusted me with his most
precious--
' (HBP US p29)
Perhaps after `killing' Dumbledore, Snape will be in entrusted `with
his most precious' Locket.
I realize that there's the Locket at 12 G. Place, but maybe it's
just a locket. Like the mouth organ from Orphanage!Tom's dresser,
it was only ever a mouth organ.
Kemper,
Who doesn't (want to) believe Snape's betrayal. See post
