> I know that is what supposedly happens and that is what Harry says to LV. but there is still plenty of fighting going on after Harry's sacrifice.  Do you think Molly was protected from Bella and was in no actual danger in the Great Hall?  Notice LV was fighting and holding off  McGonagall, Kingsley, and Slughorn in the Great Hall.  Just before Harry reveals himself LV sent these three "blasted backward, flailing and writhing through thr air" [p737 US hardback ed] and Harry sends up a Shield Charm to protect Molly from LV. When Harry says "you can't torture them.  You can't touch them [p738]", I can't accept that because that is not what I have been seeing and that is not how Harry is acting. Not consistent. 

Pippin:
 Voldemort's spells fail again and again, first the crucio in the forest, then the silencing charm he casts on the crowd, then the fire spell on Neville and the Sorting Hat, then the body bind curse on Neville.  

JKR doesn't want us to guess what has happened too quickly, and Harry evidently wants to make doubly sure that people are protected, so he casts shield charms. But shield charms are ordinarily useless against AK, yet Voldemort kills no defenders from the moment Harry returns. 

Molly is fighting Bella, not Voldemort, so I'm not sure whether she would have been protected.
