Best Answer

Inference from your question: You take all your information from the Crucible.

Abigail can not be considered responsible. If she was lying, her uncle, Reverand Parris, is more to blame that she is, seeing as he played it up instead of going to a legitimate doctor in Boston in an attempt to keep the town from firing him. If something caused her to make the accusations, (ie an illness) it is even less her fault.
