Lara Raith killed Malcolm Dresden
The_Sibelis:
That's not quite the same as getting shot at point blank range.. I don't think anyone made that part up, just set it up. Totally different.

Not necessary. Even the murder spree in eight night would have been seen as natural by everyone if Karen was not involved and it is still in the books as natural.
The white court has no need to make its kills look like something else. Justin does.

He still feel betrayed because she was keeping the secret from him and then married him (maybe) with the knowledge that she murdered his father. Even if he doesn't feel betrayed, it's still likely to be a character Harry knows. That's a bigger payoff. What's the point of Harry finding out that "White Court Vampire No. 37" killed his father? That's the answer to the question "why use a princess when a commoner can do the job?" Because Harry doesn't know the commoner.

This is death by White Court.
--- Quote ---"That's the thing," Butters said. "I couldn't find one."
I lifted both eyebrows at him.
He spread his hands. "Harry, I know my trade. I like figuring this stuff out. And I haven't got the foggiest why the woman is dead. Every test I ran came up negative; every theory I put together fell apart. Medically speaking, she's in good shape. It's like her whole system just… got the switch turned off. Everything at once. Never seen anything like it."
--- End quote ---
Since this is suspicious I would gather that the assumption is the defect was an attempt for the death to look like natural causes. No indication that the White Court can do that except with a curse, unless of course Lord Raith could do it. Somewhere it is stated that he could look at people and make them dead. An aneurysm which has ruptured would be the same in all relevant characteristics as the ruptured heart of someone targeted by the curse. A small curse might look just like that. This is assuming, of course that Jim has actually picked a villain at this point.
Bad Alias:
A death certificate or investigation can say whatever the hypothetical mind controlling White Court conspirators want it to say.
