Hi everybody!

OK, I can be flexible. How about this even more evil (and possibly 
more plasuible?) explanation:
At young age, Bad Weasley showed great magical talent, and this was 
discovered by a nearby dark wizard. He took it upon him to train him 
as a pupil of his (the classic master-apprentice scenario), focusung 
in the Dark Arts.
So, he was at young age destined to be a really, really, dark wizard, 
and A&M were quite displeased with that, and denied him.
And he didn't go to Hogwarts. Or Durmstrang. Or Beauxbatons.
Just a thought.
