Boo does actually kill Bob Ewell but Mr. Tate doesn't cover up for him. Boo is only thought to have carried Jem home. It is thought that Jem actually killed him from Scout's explanation of the events. Mr. Tate tries to cover up for Jem by saying that Mr. Ewell fell on his own knife. The knife that Mr. Tate pulls out of his pocket at the end of the book is Bob Ewells knife, but Mr. Tate claims that he took it off a drunk man downtown. The knife in Bob Ewell is Boo's.

Who played Boo Radley in 1962 To Kill a Mockingbird?

"Mockingbirds" in this story are those people characterized by their innocence which is taken away by exposure to some (unnecessary) evil. Boo Radley most definitely fits this description. Arthur "Boo" Radley is an enigma, purportedly once a bright young boy who, as the result of some past event, had been sequestered away and emotionally damaged by his domaneering father for most of his life. He grew to be a misunderstood recluse - though he never lost his kindness. Indeed, it was his humanity that ultimately brought him back out of the house to help and later save the lives of young Scout and Jem. It is Boo's kindness without prejudice, what me know as "innocence," that makes him a mockingbird. In spite of everything, Boo gives with all his heart, just as Miss Maudie explains to scout that a "Mockingbird sings with all its heart." To injure him, as "to kill a mockingbird," would simply be a sin.
