She might have if Adam and Reed hadn't caught her in the act.
She would have gotten away with the murders if she stayed on her original, slow and believable path. When she moved to the quick, brutal deaths, it put too much light on the family.
I think she could have gotten away with killing them. I'm glad Adam figured out at least part of it and he and Reed were able to stop it.
I think Amanda's reign of terror was coming to an end with Adam, Reed and Morrisette on the case. The escalation of family murders was her undoing.
The escalation was definitely her undoing. She wasn't taking time to think through her murders. The cops would have come down hard on the Montgomery family when Sugar and Cricket were found. Leaving them in the house was not smart at all. She was devolving quickly.

It was clear in that final scene she’d become completely unhinged and fully into her persona as Atropos. With all of her family dead, she would have found new targets. Amanda was a lost cause.
I don't think she could have gotten away with all the killings. if she is the only one living eventually all eyes would be on her. plus I don't think she can stop killing even when all the family is gone

I agree with Jonetta on this one.
