Wally West
So yeah Wally West is the Killer, while it was not intentional on his part - he did frame Harley/Booster for the act when it really was his own. A lot of fans are extremely upset at this considering many pepole feel Tom King is completely derailing Wally's character and turning him into a darker character doesn't work with the story.
As Wally reflects on his actions (in what we eventually learn is a video testimonial being sent to Lois Lane), he admits Sanctuary simply failed to help him. The crushing weight of knowing his wife doesn't remember him and his children no longer exist proved to be too much for Wally to bear. And even though Sanctuary is designed to help heroes in his predicament, Wally has still felt utterly alone and hopeless since returning to the real world in DC Universe Rebirth #1. Convinced that Sanctuary was nothing more than an elaborate facade designed solely to imprison him, Wally journeyed into the heart of Sanctuary's security system and experienced every single video confessional and instance of trauma at once.While that was enough to prove to Wally he wasn't alone, experiencing so much pain and hardship at once sent him over the edge. Wally lost control over the Speed Force and his fellow Sanctuary residents were caught in the resulting blast.
The Sanctuary massacre was a accident, not intentional mass-murder. However, Wally took great pains to alter the disaster site and make it appear to be a crime scene. Wally reveals he managed to use super-speed to circumvent Sanctuary's security protocols, altering the programs and manipulating Booster and Harley into believing each other was the killer.Wally also reveals the significance of the term "Puddlers" introduced earlier in the series. As Wally tells Lois, puddlers were workers designed to remove impurities from iron ore. Because of the highly toxic nature of their work, puddlers sacrificed their own health and well-being for the sake of others. Wally, in his current delusional state, sees himself playing a similar role for the superhero community. His plan is to effectively commit suicide five days in the future, hence why his body is also among the dead at Sanctuary. But first, he'll use those five days to perform a deed great enough to atone for the deaths at Sanctuary. What that act is will be revealed in the series finale next month.
So yeah Wally West is the Killer, while it was not intentional on his part - he did frame Harley/Booster for the act when it really was his own.
