Did Harrison Wells Kill Barry's Mom?

Dr. Wells did indeed kill Barry's mother — a mystery Barry has been investigating since the show's beginning. But Wells never meant to kill Nora Allen: he went back in time to kill Barry, but he failed and Nora was a casualty. ... There is no Harrison Wells.

Why did Barry's mom have to die?

Nora Allen (née Thompson; 1959 – March 18, 2000) was the mother of Barry Allen, the wife of the late Henry Allen, and a good friend of Joe West. She was fatally stabbed by Eobard Thawne/Reverse-Flash and her murder was pinned on Henry who was subsequently sent to prison.

Is Dr Wells bad in the Flash?

But all of it was in service of keeping Barry's legacy as The Flash intact, which on the surface seems like a total good-guy move.
