part of dorrito's every flavour mood beans.
It's not that Fudge doesn't want to believe him, you understand, but to be perfectly honest there's not much evidence. It's the boy's word against powerful wizards like Lucius Malfoy. All Fudge has seen for himself is Harry Potter clinging to Cedric Diggory's dead body, and people will do a lot for the Triwizard winnings, you know. Not that there's proof there either and so much the better. The death will be enough of a stain on Hogwarts.
It's unfortunate, but it's best this all reflect on Dumbledore and the school rather than the Ministry. Yes, it's easiest this way.
