At least, I'm assuming EpiPens can kill people Had a kid come into the hospital where I work once having stuck himself with his dad's epi-pen and having an allergic reaction to it. He left the ER in short order, but if he hadn't gotten medical attention I'm sure he'd have died.
I actually felt really bad for Krystal, too (from your recaps, I've not actually read the book). She was just handed a terrible lot, and despite the fact that her solution to her predicament was pretty nonsensical, at least it seemed her intentions were good. Which just makes her whole arc all the more tragic.
I think that was the point. The 4 characters who die are all sympathetic in some way, but Simon and Obbo, who Rowling explicitly described as the only two characters completely beyond redemption, make it out alive in good health with no lasting consequences for their actions and without being removed from the situations in which they were harming people.
So she picks up Andrew Price's EpiPen and takes it with her, saying she's going to put it in the fridge in back. But she has far deadlier plans than that...
