In Romeo and Juliet I think Friar Lawrence is at fault for the deaths of the star crossed lovers. Firstly, Friar Lawrence gave some bad advice to Romeo and Juliet and led them down the wrong paths.

Their families feud that led to the deaths of many loved ones, the way Friar Laurence overlooked their marriage, & the messengers inability to get to Romeo.

Thy Juliet is alive, / For whose dear sake thou wast but lately dead” (3.3.141-142). Friar Laurence attempts to calm Romeo down by bringing up that “thy Juliet is alive”.
