For my part, I'm thinking more in terms of the pattern of Shigure's behavior than any specific event. I don't think he directly caused any of the bad things that happened to her (except possibly telling Akito about her relationship with Haru, and I prefer to think it wasn't him . . . which is odd, given everything else I believe). I do believe he is the only person who's capable of manipulating Akito's behavior in a way that could have prevented some of her rage falling on Rin the way it did. And I do believe that he knew she was imprisoned and did nothing. (Ginny and I debate that point quite a bit. ^^) Whether it was because he didn't feel that thwarting Akito in that was in his best interests, or because he was deliberating setting things up to make Haru break away from her, I don't know.
(Demeter, am I interpreting things completely differently from you? Or are you thinking of something more specific? *can cheerfully discuss this for ages*)
