He isn't. The Friar tells the whole story to the Prince after R&J are found dead and then says, "If aught in this miscarried by my fault, let my old life be sacrificed." In other words, he was inviting the Prince to find him guilty of anything leading up to the tragedy, including secretly marrying them and giving Juliet the potion. The Prince responds evasively, "We still have known thee for a holy man." Which means, probably, that if the Friar is at fault, he is completely forgiven and not found guilty at all, because he is a "holy man".

Who should be blamed for the death of Romeo and Juliet in 200 words?

In my opinion, Friar Lawrence is guilty for Romeo and Juliet's death. I think he is guilty because he married Romeo and Juliet. He gave Juliet the potion, and because he didn't get the message to Romeo, I think that he should have met up with Romeo on the outside of Capulet's tomb. Or maybe he could of gone to Mantua and met with Romeo face to face.
