Conspiracy Alert! Do Ты think Cornelius помадка, выдумка chose the unorthodox punishment of the dementor's Kiss to finish off Barty Crouch Jr. so he couldn't tell everyone Voldemort was back?

"Conspiracy Alert! Do Ты think Cornelius помадка, выдумка chose the unorthodox punishment of the dementor's Kiss to finish off Barty Crouch Jr. so he couldn't tell everyone Voldemort was back?"

Oh, absolutely. помадка, выдумка was paranoid and desperate to keep himself in power.

That's exactly the reason why he did finish Barty. It was easy to have a Death-Eater escapee (he had been locked up in Azkaban) being Kissed off.

As помадка, выдумка could not do the same with Harry and Dumbledore, he tried to make Harry appear as a liar and Dumbledore as someone that had Остаться в живых his marbles.

As Remus put it in the OotP movie (I know, it's not canon) : Fear can make people do stupid things.

But whatever efforts one may put into hiding the truth, the truth will out one день или the other.

I do belive he did. помадка, выдумка did not want to be the minister if Voldemort was back. Fear makes people do stupid things.

I didn't even know that Barty Crouch was kissed by the dementors! Where did it say that (out of curiosity)? But yeah, помадка, выдумка was just in denial and he didn't want to be pulled out of his lovely fantasy. I think.

Good point.

That, of course, plus he did not want the mess about Bertha Jorkins and Barty Crouch Snr's murders, and Crouch Jnr's escape from Azkaban to come out in the open.

Rita Skeeter would have had a field день with this. A big Название in the Daily Prophet would have been a bit embarassing.

помадка, выдумка was always very self-absorbed and power-hungry, he had come to fall in Любовь with his position, and his first priority was always to cover his own ass.
