Seems legit. It isn't really that. Like most, I at first only assumed she knew of people being killed and may at worst have been complicit in some killings. My opinion changed when she put a blade to Roman's throat and threatened to kill him without even a hint of hesitation. To me that seems to be a strong signal that Blake is used to doing that sort of thing. Her not commenting on the White Fang killing people just reinforces that perception, as well as how Weiss saying "liars, thieves, and murderers" prompts Blake's outburst of "maybe we were just tired of being pushed around" by humans. Sure, it's possible she meant "we" in a more general sense, but in conjunction with everything else it makes one wonder if the "murder" part really got to her on a personal level.

However looking at the way Blake is holding her blade to Roman's neck, she is holding it backward. It is possible that the side to his neck is duller and wouldn't actually be able to kill him, but she is only using it as a bluff to gain information. Roman may have even noticed this, as he is pretty calm and even risks blowing Blake away with his cane, as if the blade was to his neck there was a good chance that it would kill him.
