But who did Lily kill?  HBP established the basis that the creation of
horcrux is possibly only via an act of great evil, interpreted as
murder by Slughorn.  I read that as meaning not just the act of
killing someone but the act of killing someone in cold blood, possibly
for the sole creation of the horcrux.  Therefore, I can't buy into the
theories that anyone on the side of good (Lily or otherwise) has a
horcrux just lying around somewhere.
