Nov 2nd, 1981 || Fair Trial
It had been a couple of days since the news, everyone was out celebrating something that to him was bittersweet; yes Voldemort was dead, but at what cost? James and Lily were dead, and everyone blamed it on Sirius. How could people really believe he did it? everything was a mess in the crime scene, the only disturbing thing was him laughing like a maniac; and if Tiberius new Sirius (and he did) that only meant shit hit the fan.
Crouch had dictated a zero tolerance police, every Death Eater found should be sent to Azkaban immediately, no questions asked and no exception. but this was Sirius Black, James Potter best mate, Harry’s godfather; he didn’t even bare the mark, did he? Dumbledore had to know that, even if Crouch was blind and deaf to reason, Dumbledore mustn’t be, he knew Sirius, he couldn’t believe...
Tiberius wasn’t sure what anyone should or shouldn’t believe these days, but he was certain that at least the former Gryffindor deserved a fair trial, and Tiberius was determined to give him that.
He moved to one co-worker he knew would understand his frustration; Amelia. They had been in the same year at Hogwarts, and decided to go into Law Enforcement, which made her a safe target to bounce ideas. He moved to her office and knocked before entering, “Amelia, got a second? I would like to run something by you.” he asked seriously but with a kind smile on is face.
