Steve replies:

In the book, Baby-Voldemort issues the command "kill the spare", and Wormtail/Peter kills Cedric. 

According to law and logic, if you issue the command for someone's death, you are as guilty of the death as the person who committed the actual act. 

So, while Voldemort didn't cast the curse, he holds the responsibility for the death and the crime. 

Does that help?
