Many fans consider that Randy's death was truly Dewey's fault. As Randy and Dewey held a meeting in a cafe, truly testing their intuition, they began rattling off suspects, which hit too close to home. Randy mentioned his fellow film classmate and one of Sid's friends, Mickey, could be the killer because he was way too obsessed with scary movies -- and also, the idea of getting them right by honoring the prequels. Dewey then mentioned that by that logic, Randy could be a killer too, as they couldn't trust someone close to Sid who loved the art form. Randy continued the conversation by stating that in that case, Dewey might be the slasher, which caused the cop to drop the whole topic because he got uncomfortable. It was a bad move, however, as Dewey was onto something in Randy's words. Had Dewey entertained this thread in full, he and Randy could have disproved themselves as the slasher, as they'd have been with Sid when the killer was active. Granted, there were two killers, but seeing as Mickey was always missing, by the process of elimination, they could have sussed out Mickey was one of them, which might have led them to the second killer: Billy's mom, the reporter masquerading as Debbie Salt. Dewey failed big time in stitching this puzzle together because by trying not to incriminate himself, he missed a clear red flag. Had Dewey done his job and followed up, he might have spotted the danger, investigated the film class some more and maybe tracked Mickey's tuition to Debbie. It proved Dewey wasn't good at strategy or detective work. Instead of being proactive, he was just hoping to luck out in the field, and because he dismissed their discussion about a solid lead so quickly, it led to Ghostface kidnapping Randy by Gale's news van and killing him in a tragic end.
