Voldemort Murders

No: HPFGUIDX 42740

This is a very interesting discussion, made thoroughly bizarre, of 
course, by the fact that my edition reads "one more curse." I do think 
that this was a correction that got into some of the editions, but not 
others. However, this speculation is so interesting, I can't help but 
join in on the off chance that "one more murder" isn't just an escaped 
error.

No. Crouch Jr. specifically states in "Veritaserum" that Bertha 
Jorkins was the one who told Voldemort about the Triwizard Tournament.

Which is a very cool idea.... Both your scenarios I liked very much.

No, again. Crouch Jr. states that Bertha Jorkins revealed this to 
Voldemort. So, Voldemort and Wormtail were perfectly aware of the new 
DADA hiring.
