Peter heard how Sirius escaped and how in animal form thoughts are simpler 
than humans.... So if he had gone to Azkaban, Sirius had, in a way, given him 
the formula for escape.... This makes me wonder if anyone thought Pettigrew 
was smart enough to use it or if they even thought that it was an issue???

Me:
Indeed, Sirius told Peter the exact way to escape. Only problem is, you need 
the obsession, knowledge, that you are innocent. When Peter got away in the 
end there was no one conciouse to catch him and kill him. If he is captured 
and attempts to transform, I am sure he will be easily killed/recaptured 
easily. Having said any of this, if he ever does get caught, and of course I 
am hoping he will be, Sirius will probably be let off. We are left in a new 
age in wizarding as Dumbledore and Fudge have had a parting of ways. Will the 
ministry have any power in the coming of the second dark magic age? It has 
been suggested that Fudge is on the bad side. He might be keeping Sirius down 
for a reason.

One last thing. In GoF when Karkarof is being interogated in front of the 
ministry he claims that Voldermort solely knows the names of all the Death 
Eaters. When they return to his side he simply introduces them all. Perhaps 
Karkarof is just lying to save his own skin. He might have been protecting 
some other people. Or JKR was just contradicting her statements.
