Aria's reaction is just her way of coping with her PTSD; she needs to take action, any action in order to put the matter behind her, and lying to help further incriminate a circumstantial suspect was the most expedient means of doing so. The others coped by other means, Emily with gun training to restore her sense of power and safety (which backfired), Hanna by reclaiming her personal safe space, and Spencer by returning to pharmacology. I don't really find Aria's actions any more suspicious than the rest, just unfortunate and regressive.
