I hated that Molly killed Bellatrix! Harry should have to get back at 
her for killing Sirius, or Neville to get back at her for torturing 
his parents with the cruciatus curse. If my memory serves me 
correctly I think that Bellatrix killed Fred which would explain Molly 
saying "she's mine" like she does in DH before she finally dispenses 
Bellatrix, but I still think Harry or Neville should have got the 
priviledge. They certainly had to wait long enough to see her die.

Bob:
Maybe so, I really do see the reasoning, but did Harry ever really 'kill' anyone?  No forbidden curses, all disarming, stunning, binding etc.

Maybe she just did not want to have Harry kill anyone, keep him sort of pure?
