Then she killed Marvel by sending an arrow into his neck because he killed Rue and then she shot Cato to put him out of his misery from the mutts that were practically eating him alive. But she did not kill Clove. Thresh killed her at the feast by smashing a bolder into her skull when she was harassing Katniss. And he helped Katniss because she helped Rue. Also, the boy from District Three was considered a career too because he set up the mines around their food supply and kept watch while the careers were out. Katniss did not kill him.
