YOU-KNOW-WHO TO BE PUT ON TRIAL FOR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY

 

 

As you might have notice from the title of this article, notorious He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named has finally been caught and is undergoing a trial as we speak!

 

Many of us around the world are still celebrating his capture and our holding our breaths with anticipation as his reign of terror is finally at an end. As a mysterious turn of events, the trial will not be held in the Ministry’s infamous Wizengarmont Courtrooms; and instead will be held in another realm.

 

This realm, recently discovered by the Department of Mysteries, has been named “Randland” and their branch of government has agreed to oversee this widely publicized case. Though reasons for this change of venue weren’t given, as the Minister of Magic Kingsley Shacklebolt has refused to give comment, the air of confusion and outrage still surround this unprecedented decision.

 

Overseeing the case is Elgee, Amyrlin of the White Tower; which is where the set venue is for this case. “While the Wizarding World is new to the existence of our realm, rest assured that justice will be served and the trial will be fair” said Elgee when questioned by correspondent Rita Skeeter Sunday morning.

 

The prosecutor is the widely known Ministry official Daruya. “I’m looking forward to getting the well disserved justice all of us disserve from this fiends action over the past 20 years. All of us have had our lives violated by Lord Voldemort in some way, and it’s about time he finally paid for the crimes he’s committed” responded Dar when asked how she felt about the case.

 

The defense for this case has been taken up by well known Scrubbs & Dobbers located in Knockturn alley. The leading attorney on this case, Red, has declined to comment. Readers might recall this firm from widely publicized cases such as “Goblins vs Ministry” after the Goblin revolt of 1812 and the more recently known case of “State vs Greyback” in which Greyback was acquitted of 95 charges of aggravated werewolf bites to minors. Given the firms past history of shady cases and controversial win tactics, it’s not surprising to see they have come to the defense of such a notorious home wreck such as You-Know-Who.

 

With the case starting in under a day, make sure to stay tuned to the Dailey Prophet for exclusive news via Rita Skeeter! link to live feed of court case
