Hey @Uncle Jackass, open up your knowledge basket cause I'm about to drop some: Think about it this way, what if River Song, as a child in the spacesuit, is the impossible astronaut rising from the deep in Utah to kill the doctor? It fits, and you ask what she did to get locked up in Storm Cage? She killed the Doctor as a child!

As a child she would not have known the Doctor and would be acting "under orders" to kill him, she would not have known Amy and Rory were her parents as she had been taken from them and she would not have know she was the future River Song.

Uncle Jackass, I don't think it was River (that would be too easy and nothing is ever this easy on Doctor Who). I think River most likely killed her father (because Rory seems to be the poor guy who dies and then lives and then dies again).
But other than that, I can't wait for August 27th!

It would seem a moronic plot hole if the person to shoot the doctor was most likely River Song as a child, but then again what crime did she commit to land in interstellar jail?
