Buckbeak.  
 The guys knows EVERYTHING.

Now me:
  Well, Dumbledore has *already* been wrong.  You've totally left out 
that whole giant thing about Moody being Crouch and Dumbledore not 
knowing it.  This is exactly why I think Snape is to be trusted.  
Dumbledore has made a mistake-- a huge, giant mistake-- about one of 
his lieutenants already.  He is unlikely to do so a second time.
