We already know that Harry had a bit of a conflict of interest when it comes to Dexter (he was banging Dexter's mom), what if by not getting Dexter the help he needed to turn Dex away from some of his sociopathic tendencies he turned him into a killer. The kid was traumatized by seeing his mother get chainsawed, of course he was a little weird. And how about the fact Harry completely abandoned Dexter's brother? Harry isn't the nice guy Dexter and Deb remember him as and I think he wanted to craft a weapon to get at the people he can't put away.
Very interesting theory man. It makes sense because like you said Harry could get the bad guys he wasn't able to put behind bars. I like it. Maybe they end up going down that path you never know.
