According to Brandon, at the most, Rand could burn somebody out of the pattern a full week back. That's using the Choedan Kal, etc. Because Asmodean died more than a week ago (it was something like 6 months ago in Randland time) then Graendal could not have been Asmo's killer.
If it is true that Graendal died by balefire, then she did not kill Asmodean, end of story.
If it is true that Graendal died by balefire, then she did not kill Asmodean, end of story.
What Brandon is saying is that no matter how strong you are, you can burn a thread out of the pattern less than 1 week in the past. Since Asmodean died more than a week previously, balefiring his killer cannot bring him back. This is true regardless of who the killer is.
Sanderson eliminates a particular somebody from consideration as Asmodean's killer

Yes, Brandon did. I edited my original message to add in another quote from Brandon...see above *NM*

There's nothing in those quotes that even touches on who killed Asmodean.

Logain is just making too much of a RJ comment in which he said he'd "probably" do it that way.

That did not confirm anything except her being balefired wouldn't bring him back.
