The scene when Rusty discovers the hammer sets up his wife’s confession. It begins to set the foundation for Rusty’s guilt. The whole movie we are lead to believe it really wasn’t Rusty who killed Carolyn Polhemus, but in a twist, it was his actions that prompted her murder. If, he had never had an affair with Carolyn, his wife wouldn’t have been feeling depressed and suicidal and well, basically crazy. She felt so down that had to “destroy the destroyer.” Step by step she executed her “perfectly” planned murder, knowing she wouldn’t get caught. She, however, didn’t think they would blame her husband for her actions by default. She claims she wouldn’t have let Rusty go to jail, that she would have come clean. Her thought process had her believing he would have just written the case as unsolved and it would have gotten dismissed. Guilt manifests in Rusty because he alone has to live with the truth: that his wife killed Carolyn. Not only will it haunt him everyday, but he doesn’t have the heart to punish his son by taking his mother away. Thus, leaving him to deal with the truth every single second of every day.
Can you blame a person for the unintended consequences of an action. No one can see the future, Rusty's wife has as much free will as he does. He freely chose Carolyn, but his wife freely chose to kill her.
