Motive?

Yeah. That crossed my mind too, except I'd say she convinced Bob to do it. Or had another Bob (TT Bob or otherwise) do it.

Well, in this case the juxtaposition may point to Murphy. I mean, Murphy fits the bill for some of these things:
--- Quote ---He would have had to know that you had a lab down here. And he would have had to know how to get around your wards.”
“Plus intimate knowledge of the design to tinker with it like that,” I said. “To say nothing of the fact that he would have to know it existed at all, and no one does.”
“Really, really unlikely,” Bob agreed.
“Dammit.”
“Hey, I thought you loved a good mystery, Harry.”
I shook my head and started to tell him where to stick his mystery when someone knocked at the door.
Murphy stood on the other side and smiled at me.

Couple that with the fact that Murphy was Bob's custodian for awhile. It seems reasonable to assume that she could in the future gain access to him again. Therefore gaining all the required checks on the mystery list. And we all mostly agree that Proven Guilty likely will be revisited in the Time Travel book. And we have time travel in Proven Guilty which ends with Murphy getting demoted for her absence while at Arctis Tor where she lost a day. Where best to have Murphy and allies inserted into Earth via time travel, where her/their earlier selves had to vacate a day on a trip to Arctis Tor.

But she wasn't Bob's custodian before the time that L.C. was fixed.. I don't agree that the events in Proven Guilty will be revisited in time travel... Even if possible one of the rules of time travel is you cannot go back and alter stuff... This sets off unintended consequences, yeah, you may be fixing one thing but you could be making something else a hundred times worse for a lot of people etc... Then again, that would be very Harry like..
