the interrogation → 15.11.1979
» What is your full name?
Gwenog Seren Jones
» Do you have a job? Where do you work?
I’m a professional Beater for the Holyhead Harpies, based in Holyhead, Anglesey, Wales.
» Did you come alone to the Spooky Pub event?
Yes.
» Were you on any terms with the victims? Have you ever spoken to them?
I was in Slug Club with them both at Hogwarts. Professor Slughorn always chose talented witches and wizards. I only ever spoke to Wilbert once, but since we all left school, I haven’t had any communication with him. Wendy, I spoke to her slightly more. Though I hadn’t been in contact with her for 6 months prior to the halloween party.
» Have you ever read any of the victims books?
I’ve seen many copies of them in Flourish and Blotts and other varying wizarding book shops. I’ve never bought a copy for myself, though.
» Did their deaths affect you in any way?
Yes. It shook me up a bit when I heard it was them. I’m still shocked, now. I grieved when I initially heard. Wendy and I didn’t have a tonne in common, and I wouldn’t go as far as saying we were friends but we were more than acquaintances through Slug Club, so I was a bit upset to read about her passing in the Daily Prophet.
» How fast did you leave after the dementors came?
It wasn’t immediately. I was stood still, as if I was frozen solid for a minute. I felt as though I couldn’t breathe. After a few minutes, I managed to pull myself together and apparate out of there back to my home in Holyhead. I wish I could have taken others with me, but it was just chaos. Everyone was rushing to get out of there, and I couldn’t risk being there any longer, so I just apparated out.
» Why do you think the two were attacked by the dementors? Do you think they deserved to be ‘killed’?
I never thought Wendy nor Wilbert deserved to be killed in such a tragic way until I found out that her and her brother were big fans of the Dark Lord. I found that out via the Daily Prophet article. I don’t understand why dementors would be sent to kill them, though. If they were a follower or supporter of the Dark Lord, what reason did he have to kill them both? Perhaps they betrayed him. Who knows. I certainly don’t.
» Lastly, they were known to be into dark magic. Would you ever use dark magic on someone?
Absolutely not.
